On March 4, 2022, Bridging the Gap and New America’s New Models of Policy Change Initiative hosted the first event in a series of conversations about new research in national security and foreign policy featuring Dr. Anjali K. Dayal. She and International Crisis Group’s Ashish Pradhan discussed her new book, Incredible Commitments: How UN Peacekeeping Failures Shape Peace Processes, which asks why warring parties turn to UN peacekeeping and peacemaking, even when they have little faith in peacekeepers’ ability to uphold peace agreements.
