Abstract

ABSTRACT Despite the relevance of inter-organizationally managed peace operations, research on their effectiveness is still limited. This study analyses the effectiveness of one inter-organizational peace operation, the AU-EU cooperation in response to the 2013 crisis in the Central African Republic. Conceptualizing effectiveness through an actor- and target-related perspective, it hypothesizes resource exchange, inter-organizational convergence, and a supportive conflict setting as processes conducive to effective action. The findings suggest that the cooperation was effective since the partners exchanged resources, had a high convergence, and acted within a supportive conflict setting.
