Abstract

Abstract A transitional administration is a dynamic endeavor. It does not aim to maintain the status quo but to change it dramatically and for the better, and then to leave. The United Nations Transitional Administration for Eastern Slavonia, Baranja and Western Sirmium (UNTAES) was established by the UN Security Council on 15 January 1996 and ended on 15 January 1998. A small but successful peace operation, UNTAES turned out to be something of a proving ground for ideas, methods, and procedures and a highly useful demonstration of the extent to which multilateral organizations, in this case the United Nations, can assist war-torn territories on the long road to the return of peace and stability.
