Abstract

The events that marked the history of humankind proved the fact that the peace represents the sole condition that enables the development of human civilization. Thus, the right to peace of all inhabitants of the planet is a fundamental right, being the supreme asset of humankind. Because of that, after the Second World War, in 1945, the United Nations Organization was established, having as purpose to keep the world peace and security. Even since the beginning of its functioning, UNO developed peacekeeping operations, but without having praiseworthy results in relation with the imed purpose. Given the experience gathered along the time, in 2008, UNO considered that the implementation of the concept of “robust” peacekeeping is opportune, taking into consideration the factual situations that they faced. Actually, during the development of the peacekeeping operations, the need of using force has been established repeatedly, especially for the protection of civil population and maintaining of public order. The comparative analysis of the operations of “robust” keeping and of those of asserting peace developed by UNO is essential, in order to be able to understand which the conditions are, the level of taking decision of using force, legality and legitimacy of using force that makes the difference between two types of operations. Due to the multidimensional nature of the peacekeeping operations , UNO is the sole organization with universal vocation competent to have a comprehensive response in relation the complexity of the crises and that developed the concept of “integration of missions”, aiming to support the states in their effort of a durable peacekeeping.
