Professor Kimberly Marten of Barnard College, Columbia University The United Nations Envoy Office presents a discussion with Kimberly Marten, whose new book "Enforcing the Peace" has received the 2005 ForeWord Gold Award for the best book in political science published by an independent press. "It used to be that international peacekeeping was simply a matter of policing cease fires. Now, UN peacekeeping is at or near the center of dealing with almost every major conflict, internal or external. ... Professor Marten's new book should be at the center of our learning and thinking about the facts and the policy process. This is a very important book." Leslie Gelb, president emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations. Cosponsored by the Peace Task force and Adult Education (Free event)
