Holohan, Anne, Networks of Democracy: Lessons from Kosovo for Afghanistan, Iraq and Beyond, hardback and paperback, Stanford, USA, Stanford University Press, 2005, 1 - 220pp,
Notes: [Networks of Democracy explores international peacebuilding and reconstruction through an ethnography of the United Nations Mission in Kosovo. I looked at what I was experiencing and seeing in technology studying and working in California in the late 1990s and early 2000s and saw teams working across organizational boundaries on a project, then disbanding and other groups emerging, required new ways of organizing and thinking, new skills " a move from hierarchies to networks. I had started doing research on the changes required to make militaries effective at peacebuilding, and then I realized the changes in peacebuilding missions were similar to Silicon Valley " hierarchies coming together temporarily to form the United Nations Mission in Kosovo (police, military, civilians), then disbanding once their goals have been achieved or the mandate ended. The key themes of the book are Cooperation: Analyzes how people from diverse nationalities and organizational cultures"such as the military, police, and civilian agencies"work together on the ground. Network Leadership: Examines leadership styles, social embeddedness, and accountability within local municipal networks. Technology: Explores the use and misuse of information and communication technologies in multi-organizational missions. Global Application: Draws lessons from Kosovo to understand peacekeeping and reconstruction efforts in other international contexts.],

Anne Holohan, Hasmik Grigoryan, Gaming for Peace: Impact of a Digital Role-playing Game on Peacekeepers" Soft Skills, 10.5281/zenodo.22046434, 2026,
Notes: [This study provides an opportunity to see the relevance and impact of gamified training in soft skills for peacekeeping personnel. A digital roleplay game embedded in a blended learning module with a curriculum in gender awareness, cultural awareness and communication competence was taken by peacekeeping personnel from military, police and civilian organizations from 18 countries in 4 continents. Before and after quizzes indicated modest progress for participants from what was already quite a high baseline in peacekeeping relevant soft skills. One month later, a survey assessed the impact of the intervention in the participants" workplaces. The content and delivery proved to be relevant and accessible across all genders, organizational types and nationalities. Overall, the respondents felt the impact of the intervention through greater awareness and more agency to act on those increased awarenesses. There was more self-aware communication within their own organization and with other organizations; more self-aware communication with the local community, and efforts to ensure greater opportunities for women in their organization and any future peacekeeping mission. The participants found the gamified and blended learning approach to be highly engaging and useful for pre deployment training.],

Notes: [Webs not walls: International organizations as networks and hierarchies in Kosovo is my PhD which was accepted as is for publication by Stanford University Press. My dissertation was a study of how international organizations in Kosovo are managing to cooperate together in unprecedented ways. I explored how hierarchical, bureaucratic organizations with very different cultures"the United Nations, the militaries, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, nongovernmental organizations, the European Union"were managing to work together as one temporary network organization, the United Nations Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK), with the goal of reestablishing security and rebuilding the institutions of a destroyed society. I compared the sources of, and obstacles to, cooperation between international organizations in two municipalities in Kosovo. One of the municipalities was making considerable progress towards the goals of the mission, one was not, and these different outcomes for the population and institutions of the respective municipality was dependent "],
