(2013). Introduction: A Concern with Protection,
in Benjamin de Carvalho and Ole Jacob Sending (eds.) The Protection of Civilians in UN Peacekeeping: Concept, Implementation and Practice.
.Baden-Baden,Nomos.s. 17-23.The authors argue that we have witnessed the emergence of a new discourse on the protection of civilians over the past decade. Grounded in the practice of peacekeeping in UN missions, this discourse and evolving norms has sought to distance itself from the rather rigid understanding of protection of civilians as understood in International Humanitarian Law, focusing instead on practical challenges on the ground.

(2013). Unpacking the “Culture of Protection”: A Political Economy Analysis of UN Protection of Civilians ,
in Benjamin de Carvalho and Ole Jacob Sending (eds.) The Protection of Civilians in UN Peacekeeping: Concept, Implementation and Practice.
.Baden-Baden,Nomos.s. 63-88.The chapter demonstrates how different institutional actors – such as OHCA, ICRC, and OHCHR – all advance different interpretations of “protection” in order to further their respective institutional interests. Because the term “protection” is a vehicle to advance different, even conflicting, institutional interests it is unlikely that there will be greater conceptual clarity in the foreseeable future.

i (ed.) Emanuel Adler and Vincent Pouliot International Practices
.Cambridge University Press.s. 231-254.The article focuses on the practices that structure the relations between states and international organizations and seeks to capture the situated and contextualized character of how states operate within IOs, and how IOs operate vis-à-vis states. Crucially, the question of possible IO authority and autonomy may then be analyzed as the effects of concrete practices rather than as emanating from a priori defined features of IOs and/or states.

This edited volume explores the Protection of Civilians (PoC) and offers comparisons and in-depth studies of protection mandates in UN peacekeeping missions in Africa. The book seeks to show that however PoC is defined at headquarters level, successful implementation must rest on an understanding of the limits and challenges encountered in mission, on the ground.

- Sending, Ole Jacob [red.] (2010). Learning to Build a Sustainable Peace. Bergen, Chr. Michelsen Institute (CMI). 49 sider. Lack of local ownership is seen as a central explanation for why peacebuilding efforts often fail to yield sustainable peace dividends. This report suggests some concrete steps that can be taken to render ownership an operational principle.
- Andersen, Morten Skumsrud, Ole Jacob Sending (2011). Accountability in the United Nations. NUPI-notat: 785. 46 sider. Som den viktigste internasjonale organisasjonen, er det avgjørende at FN er effektiv som organisasjon og at medlemsstatene kan være sikre på at ressursene de bidrar med blir brukt som intendert. FNs forvaltningsansvar, eller ”accountability”, står derfor sentralt i pågående debatter om reform av FN-systemet. Denne studien analyserer rollen og effektiviteten til de av FNs organer som eksplisitt har som mandat å sikre slik ”accountability” i FN systemet.
