In armed conflicts various forms of sexual violence are seen not only as accompanying violence, but also as a tool of pressure and warfare of the contesting parties, and important measures to prevent and counteract such acts have been included into the mandates of the UN peacekeeping missions. This research aims to identify the logic of international community’s action to counter conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV) by strengthening peacekeeping initiatives, and complement ongoing research on the protection of women in armed conflict and situations of sexual violence. This goal entails an examination of all elements of the existing system: legal framework, the role of states, and the activities of the UN. The authors conducted a content analysis of the UN Security Council resolutions on the topic to trace conceptual terminological changes. At the same time, to identify the main contradictions in the rhetoric of states and, consequently, the motives of their actions, a discourse cluster analysis was used based on the statements of delegations in the UN Security Council. The resulting clusters display three unique positions of the national states that are mostly explained by different understandings of the term itself, the categories of victims of such violence, and the relevant tools for countering it. Emphasis could be placed on including sexual violence on the sanctions list, gender education in military training, increasing the number of women in peacekeeping and peacebuilding missions, or preventive measures. The authors identified the most active states pushing the anti-sexual violence agenda; they include Germany, the UK, the US, Canada, and France. The article also examines the practical implementation of UN peacekeeping mandates in terms of including measures to counteract sexual violence. The research confirms that peacekeeping missions are now more actively engaged in the international response to CRSV.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p style="text-align: justify;">В центре гуманитарной деятельности международного сообщества сегодня находится подход, ориентированный на пострадавших. Различные формы сексуального насилия рассматриваются не только как сопутствующие насилию, но и как инструмент давления и ведения боевых действий противоборствующими сторонами в условиях вооруженного конфликта. В этой связи меры по предотвращению и противодействию таким актам были включены в мандаты миротворческих миссий ООН. Цель данного исследования заключается в определении логики поведения международного сообщества в контексте противодействия сексуальному насилию в условиях конфликта путем укрепления миротворческих инициатив, а также в дополнении результатов современных исследований по защите женщин в вооруженных конфликтах и ситуациях сексуального насилия. Указанная цель обусловливает последовательное изучение всех элементов существующей системы: правовой базы, роли государств и деятельности ООН. Для отслеживания концептуальных терминологических изменений авторами был проведен контент-анализ резолюций Совета Безопасности ООН (СБ ООН) по данной проблеме. Одновременно для определения основных противоречий в риторике государств и, следовательно, мотивов их действий авторами был применен кластерный анализ дискурса на основе выступлений делегаций на полях СБ ООН. Полученные кластеры содержат страны с наиболее схожим подходом к изучаемой проблеме, что позволило выделить три уникальные позиции государств, основанные на различиях в понимании самого термина сексуального насилия в условиях вооруженного конфликта, выделении категории жертв такого насилия и релевантных инструментов противодействия. Акцент может быть сделан на включении сексуального насилия в санкционный список, гендерном образовании в рамках военной подготовки, увеличении числа женщин в миротворческих и миростроительных миссиях или превентивных мерах. Авторы определили наиболее активные государства, продвигающие повестку дня по борьбе с сексуальным насилием, среди которых Германия, Великобритания, США, Канада и Франция. Также рассмотрена практическая реализация миротворческих мандатов ООН в условиях включения в них мер по противодействию сексуальному насилию. Исследование подтверждает, что миротворческие миссии активно включены в международный ответ на рассматриваемую форму сексуального насилия.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>conflict-related sexual violence</kwd><kwd>violent conflict</kwd><kwd>armed conflict</kwd><kwd>peacekeeping</kwd><kwd>human security</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>сексуальное насилие</kwd><kwd>вооруженный конфликт</kwd><kwd>миротворчество</kwd><kwd>человеческая безопасность</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><award-group><funding-source><institution-wrap><institution xml:lang="ru">Исследование выполнено за счет гранта Российского научного фонда (проект № 23-28-01195).</institution></institution-wrap><institution-wrap><institution xml:lang="en">The research was funded by the Russian Science Foundation (project No. 23-28-01195).</institution></institution-wrap></funding-source></award-group></funding-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Agerberg, M., &amp; Kreft, A.-K.
