Abstract: This article examines peacekeeping burden sharing among NATO allies for the period from 1994 to 2000. Unlike studies for earlier periods, the analysis here systematically includes both UN-led and non-UN-led peacekeeping operations. For the recent past, the nonparametric test results indicate a greater disproportionality of peacekeeping burden sharing, in which the large NATO allies carry a greater burden for the small allies. These findings are consistent with peacekeeping assuming a larger share of purely public benefits. As a consequence, suboptimality is expected to worsen.
