The organizational, political and other issues which arise from the use of such imagery are also given careful consideration.

Commercial Satellite Imagery and United Nations Peacekeeping Reviews

'...a pathbreaking and comprehensive study that can raise the level and quality of dialogue between commercial imagery providers, government policymakers, peacekeepers, and the United Nations. It shows how commercial satellite imagery is changing our world by making it increasingly transparent and reveals some of the best ways to use this tool for the intractable challenges of UN peace operations.' Lieutenant Colonel Peter L. Hays, National Defense University, USA 'A well-brought out compilation, of interest to officials of Milistry of External Affairs and Defence Forces.' USI Journal 'The editors have brought together a number of Canadian scholars and practitioners to write on an interesting range of themes...thoughtful and well-timed...' International Studies
