Abstract

This paper examines civilian peace support as a key area of Swiss foreign and security policy. The author emphasizes that concrete political achievements should not distort perceptions as to what Switzerland's peace policy is capable of achieving in the field of conflict resolution and in terms of enhancing the country's political standing. He stresses that unrealistic and excessive expectations will invariably lead to disappointments and contribute to an erosion of domestic political support.
