The “uploading” of stabilization to UN peacekeeping presents conceptual, political, and practical challenges to the UN's role in global governance and international conflict management. While scholarly research on stabilization has generally focused on militarization, its relationship to peacebuilding in the context of UN peacekeeping is underexplored. This article examines that relationship. A survey of UN policy frameworks highlights the simultaneous emergence of stabilization and clear expressions of peacebuilding. The article then draws on fieldwork in Mali and the Democratic Republic of Congo to illustrate how stabilization is displacing peacebuilding in the practices of UN peacekeeping. The article argues that the politics of stabilization impede local forms of peacebuilding, at odds with the “Sustaining Peace” agenda, and risks jeopardizing the lauded conflict resolution potential of UN peacekeeping.

在联合国维和行动中以建设和平为代价的稳定

将稳定“上传”到联合国维和行动对联合国在全球治理和国际冲突管理中的作用提出了概念、政治和实际挑战。虽然关于稳定的学术研究通常侧重于军事化，但它与联合国维和背景下建设和平的关系尚未得到充分探讨。本文研究了这种关系。一项对联合国政策框架的调查突显出同时出现的稳定和建设和平的明确表述。然后，文章利用在马里和刚果民主共和国的实地调查来说明在联合国维和实践中，稳定如何取代建设和平。文章认为，稳定政治阻碍了地方形式的建设和平，与“维持和平”议程不一致，
