This Note examines the participation of U.N. civilian police in the trafficking of women in Bosnia. It will situate this problem within the context of overall changes in U.N. peacekeeping practices and concurrent trends in the trafficking of women resulting from economic globalization, armed conflict, and patterns of migration. It will then examine the culture of impunity that has sanctioned the involvement of civilian police in trafficking for sexual exploitation, in light of prevailing gender biases within peacekeeper- contributing states and U.N. departments. Analysis of trafficking-related acts and relevant accountability mechanisms will be confined to events subsequent to the official end of the war in Bosnia 13 in an effort to further discussion of the nature and extent of obligations under international human rights law when 14 peace operations are undertaken.
