Sažetak
The article traces the development of the concept of UN peacekeeping missions
from the late 1940s, when they were first applied, to the so-called second
generation of peacekeeping missions, which is primarily linked with
the 1990s. Designating the changes in carrying out peacekeeping missions as
normative, quantitative and qualitative, the author also discusses shifts in the
understanding of traditional principles of consent of the parties, impartiality
of observers and non-use of force in most cases, which were observed by most
peacekeeping missions in the Cold War period. The other focus of this article
is the case study of the UNTAES peacekeeping mission carried out from January
15, 1996 to January 15, 1998 in Eastern Slavonia, Sirmium and Baranja,
which is considered one of the very rare examples of successful application of
the second generation of UN peacekeeping missions, but also of peacekeeping
missions in general.
