	Gendarmerie - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Argentine Gendarmerie is a de facto military force (in terms of training, identity and public perception, and it was involved in combat in the Falklands War), but for legal purposes is a "civilian armed force" because this is necessary under Argentine law in order to allow jurisdiction over the civilian population.
		Gendarmeries are military police, however the term "military police" can be misleading, since in English it carries strong implications of policing within the military ("provost" policing), which is not the basic purpose of a gendarmerie (although in many countries it is a task which gendarmes carry out).
		Gendarmeries are widely used in peacekeeping operations, for instance in the former Yugoslavia.

	U.S. Defense Scholars Tout Gendarmerie as Peacekeeping Model
		Washington -- Because peace-keeping and nation-building requirements have increased since the early 1990s, an alternative to combat military forces is needed to handle stabilization and reconstruction tasks as well as to conduct standard military operations against combatants, according to two scholars with the National Defense University (NDU).
		The authors explained that unlike traditional soldiers, the goal of gendarmerie or constabulary units [as they are called in the English-speaking world] is "to defuse potentially violent situations through negotiations and conflict management, rather than to “neutralize” the enemy or destroy a target.
		A model for such a unit could come from Europe, the authors suggested, where several governments of the European Union (EU), particularly France, Italy, the Netherlands and Spain, are "drawing on long-standing paramilitary national police forces," to create a multinational European Gendarmeria Force (EGF).
