ABSTRACT This contribution examines who and what constitute peacekeeping, and how this exacerbates gendered and geopolitical inequalities. While the number and distribution of peacekeepers (boots on the ground) is highly dependent upon Global South men and Global North money, peacekeeping appears to be more gender-friendly and truly globally representative. Despite significant transformations in the nature of peacekeeping operations, it appears that many of the more recent changes, such as introducing more female peacekeepers, has done very little to change the patriarchal and colonial culture of peacekeeping. This article exposes the perpetuation of inequalities and suggests that such interventions need to be critically examined in more detail.

维持和平：性别，地缘政治和全球治理干预措施

摘要该文稿审查了构成维和行动的人和角色，以及这如何加剧性别和地缘政治的不平等。虽然维持和平人员（地面上的靴子）的数量和分布高度依赖于南方全球人和全球北方人的资金，但维持和平似乎更有利于性别平等，真正具有全球代表性。尽管维持和平行动性质发生了重大变化，但似乎许多最近的变化，例如引进更多的女性维持和平人员，对改变家长式和殖民地维持和平文化的作用很​​小。本文揭露了不平等现象的根源，并建议对这些干预措施进行更详细的审查。
