Organized Hypocrisy is the disconnect between talk, decision-making, and action by multiple actors and is evident in our daily lives and part of our DNA. We cannot ignore or avoid it. It occurs globally in international politics, within a nation-state by its government, and by corporate and government organizations. Significant scandals are connected to organized hypocrisy, such as the VW and Enron scandals, and it is in international climate change discussions, nation-state elections, and proven to be evident in renowned organizations such as the African Union, UNICEF, and the World Bank. This book provides an in-depth understanding of organized hypocrisy by breaking down the concept and its many components. Intriguing and interesting case studies provide evidence of the prevalence and reasons for organized hypocrisy. The case studies cover climate change, foreign policy and arms control, state-building, government corruption, BREXIT, membership to the EU, human rights, Enron corporate reporting, General Electric silence, VW defective cars, the African Union, World Bank, and much more. This book demonstrates that organized hypocrisy is being used strategically across the globe and is part of our daily lives and, essentially, our DNA.

More than Fighting for Peace?

Conflict Resolution, UN Peacekeeping, and the Role of Training Military Personnel

By: David Curran

This book provides a contemporary account of the linkages between the academic field of conflict resolution and the practice of military peacekeeping, through the lens of pre-deployment training for military personnel about to embark on UN peacekeeping operations. Military personnel serving on United Nations peacekeeping operations are deployed into highly challenging post-conflict environments, where the likelihood of violence remains high. Moreover, these personnel are deployed part of a wider peace process, and are thus situated as an anchor point in a transition from war to peace. This dimension of their work therefore means that a range of skills and techniques are relied upon, which come not from traditional military training, but from other, non-traditional fields. It is into this gap where the academic field of conflict resolution has made a valuable contribution to understanding international peacekeeping. Since the 1970’s, studies have sought to understand international peacekeeping as a necessary stage in conflict de-escalation, and ultimately transformation. From this, there is a history of engagement including studies which seek to understand the skills peacekeepers may need to assist them in their day to day activities, and the role that international peacekeeping plays in wider projects of conflict transformation.
