Defence and Peace Economics, 2006, vol. 17, issue 5, 395-411

Abstract: This study examines various methods of financing peacekeeping missions and suggests mission funding appropriate to the conflict type and location. The financing of peacekeeping missions can take a number of forms, of which six mechanisms are examined in this paper. These include the traditional United Nations mission, alliance, coalition, independent, UN Trust Fund, and resource-tax funded peacekeeping missions. The paper also provides a peacekeeping funding table that can be used to assist in the determination of the appropriate peacekeeping funding mechanism. A case study of peacekeeping financing in Haiti is presented.
