ABSTRACT
The problems began here. The United Nations committed neither the money, the personnel, nor the guidance on the complicated and sensitive procedures required. The UN budgeted about $130 million and dispatched 500 peacekeepers and election monitors to
disengage and demobilize two large and hostile armies scattered over a terrain twice the size of Texas, while simultaneously registering millions of voters, albeit with the help of both government and UNITA officials, and setting up some 6,000 polling stations.
