Organizing for peace operations
There have been two general approaches to organizing for peace operations: an <italic>ad hoc</italic> approach, in which entities independently intervene and operate on the basis of their unique expertise and interest; and a top -- down approach, in which all entities are directed and controlled by a single authority. Using the UN experience in Afghanistan, we demonstrate how this view of the organizing problem is limited. Instead, we develop a typology that distinguishes among three systems for organizing peace operations-<italic>Command, Market</italic> and <italic>Community</italic> -- on the basis of their differences on four analytic dimensions (agency, social attachment, social control and inter-organizational relations). Our analysis of the UN experience in Afghanistan demonstrates the utility of our framework for both theory and practice.
