Why are second-generation peace operations generally more effective than first-generation operations?

Question

What will be an ideal response?

Answer 1

Second-generation peacekeeping forces are typically larger, more complex (involving both military and civilian personnel), and more capable.They are also engaged in a broader range of military, security, political, and humanitarian activities, and they are frequently authorized to use force to make or enforce peace.Finally, because these second-generation peace operations often occur in complicated civil war situations, the consent of the parties involved is not always a prerequisite—which also means the peacekeepers are more likely to face hostility and have to engage in more dynamic peacemaking, peacekeeping, and peace-enforcing activities.
