  3. 2. Emotion matters : Emotion management in Swedish Peace Support Operations

    Författare :Louise Weibull; Jan Karlsson; Eva Haldén; Lars Dahlgren; Karlstads universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : The thesis makes an overall contribution to the qualitative research on soldiers’ experiences from service primarily in low-intensity mission areas, this operational environment being placed within a framework of emotion sociology. The central argument put forward states that even on this type of mission the emotional demands are considerable, and that the need for emotional management in Peace Support Operations (PSO) should therefore generally follow other demarcations than the formal military divisions of high and low intensity conflicts respectively.

  5. 4. Sourcing decisions for military logistics in Peace Support Operations : A case study of the Swedish armed forces

    Författare :Per Skoglund; Susanne Hertz; David Moore; Jönköping University; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; military logistics; public procurement; sourcing; peace support operations;

    Sammanfattning : What role has sourcing for the logistical outcome when Swedish Armed Forces (FM) plan for and conduct Peace Support Operations (PSOs)? What are the logistic needs to support the operating units? Can logistics in itself contribute to the overall goals with the PSOs? It depends of course on how the logistics are organised and what is required in order to support the military operations. The research on military logistics in general is limited and within the conduct of small nations forces almost non-existent. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Consensus is not something that just happens in the foreign policy domain when political actors seemingly agree on a policy. Rather, in this dissertation I demonstrate that actors construct consensus through the framing of policy as they highlight and downplay certain elements. LÄS MER
