Texto completo da fonteFor approximately 27 years, the Democratic Republic of the Congo has been plagued by armed conflicts, currently persisting in the eastern part of the country. Thousands have lost their lives, and women and girls have endured various and exceptional harms from sexual violence, compounded by stigma and social ostracization. Despite progressive national and international legal frameworks, impunity persists, denying victims access to the right to redress. The dysfunctional national judicial system, guided by conventional criminal and reparative principles, reveals the weakness of the domestic response to the implicated international crimes. In the context of transitional justice revival, traditional national approaches to criminal justice and reparations prove inadequate in the dual national and international setting. A unique comprehensive approach addressing international crimes, focusing on the autonomy of sexual violence as a weapon of war in the DRC, gives rise to a transitional justice mechanism encompassing both judicial and extrajudicial aspects. In a geopolitical landscape marked by UN disengagement and the erosion of international responsibility, the prospect of a judicial mechanism constructed with a crescendo approach to the internationalization or denationalization of concurrent jurisdiction between national courts (Judicial Special Chambers) and the Special Criminal Court for the DRC, an international tribunal, constitutes the innovation of this thesis

Texto completo da fonteThis dissertation combines satellite imagery analysis and field research to investigate the influence of armed conflict on urban spatial development in the eastern periphery of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and western Rwanda. This border region continues to be affected by inter- and intra-state conflict since the early 1990s. The primary study area is the city of Goma in Congo's North Kivu province. Additionally, a comparison is drawn to the adjacent city of Gisenyi in Rwanda's Western Province. The literature on urban areas in Congo and throughout Sub-Saharan Africa often refers to large primary cities. Little is known about urban development of secondary cities in conflict zones, and spatially explicit studies are rare. By combining satellite imagery analysis with semi-structured interviews and observations from field visits, this dissertation provides two complementary perspectives. The second chapter uses a time series of high-resolution Landsat images to analyze Goma's expansion between 1986 and 2015, a timeframe that includes conflict in Rwanda (1990-1994), the Congo Wars (1996-2003), and their violent aftermath. It shows how stages of urban growth relate to waves of forced displacement. The third chapter relies on very high-resolution (VHR) images for a fine-scale mapping of urbanization patterns between 2005 and 2014, and attributes them to groups of key actors. The fourth chapter extends the analysis to Goma’s Rwandan twin-city Gisenyi. It compares how inter- and intra-state conflict, and recent stability in Rwanda affect urban development across a national border. The dissertation concludes by reflecting on the utility and limitations of this methodological combination for conflict regions, highlighting areas for further research.

Texto completo da fonteThis thesis examines the sexual rights violation in Eastern DRC, which has been described as the worst in the world. The sexual violence against women and children in this country is systematic and widespread and perpetrated by armed groups, and increasingly also by civilians. The prosecution of sexual offences should contribute to the reduction of these offences, but the Congolese state prosecutes very few cases. The resulting impunity became an obstacle to the state to stop sexual violence, which become unable to overcome the obstacles to prosecutorial action. The successful prosecution of sexual offenders in Eastern DRC faces many obstacles and requires an exceptional jurisdiction which must provide a minimum of better freely conditions to the prosecutors and better unrestrained justice access to the victims. The enforcement of the international instruments of justice will be possible only by this jurisdiction. The victims of sexual violence need more confidence in the jurisdiction which is really working for them to attain justice.

Texto completo da fonteThis composite dissertation explores mediation in internal armed conflicts from a bargaining perspective. Four separate essays investigate why mediation occurs, why it is successful, and why peace guarantors’ commitments are credible. Essay 1 examines the conditions under which mediation takes place. The study argues that whereas it is costly for governments to accept international mediation, it is a less costly intervention tool for potential third parties. This argument implies that mediation will be more likely when and where negotiated settlements are least likely to be reached, a contention that is supported by empirical tests. Essay 2 reviews the contemporary debate on what types of mediators that can disseminate information in a credible manner, and formulates a set of testable hypotheses on mediation partiality. The analysis shows that negotiated settlements are more likely if biased or interested mediators intervene, while neutral mediators are not associated with mediation success. Essay 3 elaborates on the role of biased mediators. It proposes that rebels face a commitment problem when negotiated settlements are to be reached, which government-biased mediators can mitigate. The study finds that such types of mediators outperform rebel-biased mediators in terms of helping combatants to settle the armed conflict. Essay 4 deals with the commitment problem that comes to pass between, on the one hand the primary parties, and on the other, the potential peace guarantors. The study probes the requests and promises for third-party security guarantees and suggests that the reputation of the United Nations (UN) enhances its credibility as peace guarantor compared to non-UN actors. It finds that although the UN is more restrictive with its promises, it is more likely that peacekeeping forces will be provided if the UN is one of the guarantors. In sum, utilizing unique data from two time-periods (post World War II and post Cold War), this dissertation arrives at new insights on the role of mediators in bringing about negotiated settlements of internal armed conflicts.

Texto completo da fonteSeveral developing nations are grappling with the phenomenon of ungoverned territories, which are believed to be harboring insurgent, terrorist, and other armed violent groups. This study investigates how a developing nation can use its resources to reduce violent activities and, consequently, ungoverned spaces from within its sovereign territory. The study uses geo-referenced violent events data as a measure of violence and spatiotemporal data for law enforcement agencies (LEAs), social services, and economic infrastructure as measures of state authority. All data is specific to Uganda. Using multi-regression models (negative binomial and matched wake analysis), the study employs interpolated spatiotemporal data to estimate the effects of state authority factors on violent events over space and time. The findings show that LEAs, including police, prisons, courts, and border protection, are the most effective in reducing violence and therefore ungoverned territories. Save for schools and local governments, social services like health centers, and economic infrastructure like roads, tend to be associated with increased levels of violence. The policy implication for developing nations is therefore to consider directing their resources toward building their LEAs before or concurrently with socioeconomic services in order to reduce violence emanating from ungoverned spaces.

Texto completo da fonteThe presence of the United Nations (UN) peacekeeping forces on the territory of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), from 1960 to 1964, and then later from 1999 to date, witnesses not onlythe political and security crises that shake the country but also the atrocities raging in it. As a consequence, there has beensuch a human and humanitarian toll that particularly caused the death of more than five million Congolese people and the worst crimes ever committed against humanity since the end of the Second World War.From 1960 to 2020, how have peacekeeping operations (PKOs) improved in relation to outcomes on the field? How did the interventions and actions of the UN in the DRC get the international community to envisage a doctrinal and operational transformation of such external interventions?The atypical case of UN interventions and presence in the DRC has forced the UN to many reviews of its intervention and peacekeeping doctrines as supported by article 39 of its charter.Having known almost all types of intervention, the DRC can be considered as the best case of testing groundof UN PKOs - their foundations, evolution and future through a necessary transformation.The use of a transversal methodology involving historical, legal and sociological methods leads to the apprehension and complex understanding of PKOs and is the basis for considering a modeling and a new doctrinal approach.The study of these PKOs with the substantial resources deployed in the DRC by the United Nations - up to nearly 20,000 peacekeepers and officials stationed and more than fifteen billion US dollars spent - shows, in view of the results on the field, the limits of the means policy.The study of PKOs in the DRC leads, by questioning the effectiveness of these interventions in view of the persistence of deadly and still unresolved conflictsby the international community, to revisit the forms of intervention, to initiate a new doctrine of PKOs, “the fourth generation PKOs”.This is one of the objectives of this thesis besides that of building a Congolese memory on peacekeeping operations in the DRC

Texto completo da fonteThe dissertation examines three military interventions in Sub-Saharan Africa which took place in the mid and late 1990s in Rwanda, the DRC and Lesotho. These interventions took place despite high expectations of international and regional peace on the part of most analysts after the collapse of cold war in 1989. However, interstate and intrastate conflicts re-emerged with more intensity than ever before, and sub-Saharan Africa proved to be no exception.
The study sets out to analyse the motives and/or causes of military interventions in Rwanda in 1990, the DRC in 1996-7, and the DRC military rebellion and the Lesotho intervention in 1998. In analysing these interventions, the study borrows extensively from the work of dominant security theorists of international relations, predominantly realists who conceptualise international relations as a struggle for power and survival in the anarchic world. The purpose of this analysis is fourfold
firstly, to determine the reasons for military interventions and the extent to which these interventions were conducted on humanitarian grounds
secondly, to investigate the degree to which or not intervening countries were spurred by their national interests
thirdly, to assess the roles of international organisations like Southern African Development Community (SADC), the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) and the United Nations, in facilitating these interventions
as well as to evaluate the role of parliaments of intervening countries in authorising or not these military interventions in terms of holding their Executives accountable. In this context, the analysis argues that the intervening countries
Angola, Botswana, Burundi, Chad, Namibia, Rwanda, Sudan, South Africa, Uganda and Zimbabwe appeared to have used intervention as a realist foreign policy tool in the absence of authorisation from the United Nations and its subordinate bodies such as the OAU and SADC.

Texto completo da fonteCette thèse analyse la création et le rôle des normes juridiques dans le contexte de la résolution pacifique de conflits armés internes. Les négociations de paix sont des processus complexes d'une grande importance : leur aboutissement, idéalement sous forme d'un accord de paix viable et largement accepté par les parties prenantes, détermine si les violences reprendront ou si une paix positive et durable pourra s'installer. Les négociations menant à l'adoption de tels accords sont toujours mal appréhendées, particulièrement d'un point de vue juridique. En effet, les négociations de paix ont été, jusqu'ici, analysées et comprises avant tout comme des processus politiques permettant de résoudre des problèmes de ce même ordre. Ainsi, selon cette logique, le droit n'aurait pratiquement aucun rôle à jouer en raison d'une présumée contrainte politique et n'offrirait qu'une perspective jugée trop idéaliste. Or, cette thèse démontre que les négociations de paix se déroulent bel et bien à l'intérieur d'un cadre normatif. Elle argue également qu'en niant l'existence et l'importance de ce cadre normatif, l'on méconnaitrait un aspect important de la réalité des négociations de paix et l'on délaisserait la contribution significative que le droit peut, et devrait, apporter à la résolution de conflits armés internes. En plus de réaliser la valeur d'un cadre juridique relativement formel et bien défini, qui prend ses racines dans le droit international, cette thèse affirme que la théorie juridique orthodoxe ne peut totalement saisir les dynamiques normatives des négociations de paix. Une conception socio-juridique et pluraliste du droit, axée sur l'interaction humaine, est plus favorable à une analyse de la conduite et du rôle des négociateurs et des médiateurs. Une telle approche, qui met de l'avant le processus, permet aussi de reconnaitre la capacité des acteurs impliqués de créer des normes et facilite l'appréciation des dynamiques normatives des négociations de paix. En explorant ces dynamiques, cette thèse vise à favoriser une meilleure compréhension de la création des normes juridiques et du rôle qu'elles jouent dans les négociations de paix, l'objectif ultime étant de contribuer au renforcement de la légitimité et de l'effectivité de ces négociations.

The world has seen an increase in the number of armed conflicts that are not of an international character. Most of these conflicts have proven to be very destructive and detrimental to persons not taking part in the hostilities. Having in mind the fact that International Humanitarian Law seeks to protect persons not taking part in armed conflicts, this thesis is an appraisal of whether International Humanitarian Law prohibits indiscriminate attacks in non-international armed conflicts.

Texto completo da fonteLa investigación sobre el papel que los recursos naturales juegan en la financiación de conflictos armados ha tomado fuerza durante la década de 2000. La Unión Europea (UE) ha reconocido el problema que suponen estos recursos, llamados "recursos de conflicto", pero carece de un enfoque coherente para su gestión. En algunos casos, la UE ha optado por medidas multilaterales para romper el vínculo entre los recursos naturales y los conflictos mientras que en otros casos, la Unión ha actuado de forma unilateral o no ha actuado en absoluto. Estas posiciones pueden parecer sorprendentes, ya que la UE es percibida generalmente como la promotora por excelencia de soluciones multilaterales en la resolución de problemas globales. La pregunta que se responde en la tesis es, por lo tanto, por qué la UE ha optado por diferentes políticas para estos casos tan parecidos. Para responder a esta cuestión se ha diseñado un marco analítico que integra factores internos y externos. Por un lado, se examina dentro de las instituciones de la UE y los Estados miembros el nivel de apoyo a dado a ciertas medidas para la restricción del comercio de estos "recursos de conflicto". Por otro lado, se estudia el desarrollo de este tipo de políticas en el contexto global utilizando el concepto de Redes Globales de Producción. Los conflictos son alimentados por los ingresos de la explotación de los recursos naturales y, por lo tanto, están incorporados en los procesos de globalización económica. Este marco se aplica a los casos de (I) los diamantes y el Proceso de Kimberley; (II) la madera y el Reglamento de la Madera de la UE; y (III) los minerales de la República Democrática del Congo. En todos los casos estudiados se puede detectar una compleja interacción entre las consideraciones normativas y económicas. Cuanto más se reconcilian estas dimensiones, más apoyo tiene una medida en el ámbito de la UE. Para los resultados de las políticas finales, sin embargo, el contexto global es el factor determinante. En primer lugar, debido al auge de las economías emergentes que se oponen a medidas globales vinculantes tanto por motivos ideológicos como materiales, la UE se encuentra con un entorno más adverso para promover sus normas a través de foros multilaterales. En segundo lugar, las regulaciones privadas transnacionales, a menudo aclamadas como una respuesta a la "brecha de la gobernanza global", sólo tienen un impacto limitado en muchas Redes Globales de Producción. Mientras tienen una cierta presencia e importancia en la UE y otros mercados occidentales, su peso en grandes partes del resto del mundo es limitado. Como consecuencia de estos dos acontecimientos la UE decide usar medidas unilaterales cada vez más. La tesis concluye que la elección de estas políticas unilaterales / bilaterales refleja un cambio desde el apoyo a cualquier precio al multilateralismo hacia un reconocimiento más pragmático de una multipolaridad globalizada.
Since the 2000s, the role of natural resources that are financing armed conflicts has come under increased academic scrutiny. The European Union (EU) has as well recognised the problem of these so-called “conflict resources”, but lacks so far a coherent approach to address it. In some cases the EU has opted for multilateral measures to break the link between natural resources and conflicts, but in other cases the Union acts unilaterally or not at all. This may appear surprising as the EU is usually perceived as the global champion of multilateral solutions for global issues. The dissertation asks therefore why the EU has chosen different policy measures for these similar-looking cases. To answer this question an analytical framework has been designed that integrates internal and external factors. On the one hand the level of support at the EU institutions and among the Member States for measures to curtail the trade in these “conflict resources” was examined. On the other hand, the global context for such policies was studied by using the Global Production Networks (GPN)-conceptualisation. The conflict dynamics, fuelled by the revenues of natural resource exploitation, were thus embedded in broader processes of economic globalisation. This framework was applied to the cases of (I) diamonds and the Kimberley Process; (II) timber and the EU Timber Regulation; and (III) minerals from the Democratic Republic of the Congo. On the internal level, in all studied cases a complex interplay between normative and economic considerations could be detected. The more these dimensions could be reconciled, the more support a measure had at the EU-level. For the final policy outcomes, however, the global context was the more determining factor. Firstly, due to the rise of the emerging economies that oppose for both ideational and material motives globally binding measures, the EU encounters a more adverse environment to promote its norms through multilateral forums. Secondly, transnational private regulations, often hailed as an answer to the “Global Governance Gap”, only have a limited impact on large parts of many GPNs. The EU had incorporated such schemes in its policies but they can therefore not provide genuine global solutions to this kind of problems. As a consequence of these two developments the EU is increasingly taking unilateral steps. The thesis concludes therefore that the EU’s choices for unilateral/bilateral policies in the field of conflict resources reflect a move from supporting multilateralism at any price to a more pragmatic recognition of globalised multipolarity.

Texto completo da fonte"Education and conflict" has emerged as a new field of study during the last two decades. However, higher education is still relatively absent from this debate as most of the research has focused on primary and non-formal education. This dissertation is an exploratory qualitative study on the potential role of higher education in peacebuilding processes. The conceptual framework for the study is a taxonomy of the functions of higher education designed by the author. The questions guiding the dissertation are: 1) What can we learn about the role of higher education in conflict and postconflict from the experience of countries that have suffered internal conflicts in the last century? 2) How are universities in Colombia affected by the ongoing armed conflict in the country? 3) How can Colombian higher education contribute to build sustainable peace in the country? First, based on secondary sources, the dissertation explores seven armed conflicts that took place during the twentieth century. Then, the focus turns to the Colombian case. The research incorporates the analysis of 23 semi-structured interviews, published and unpublished documents, institutional websites, and government statistics, among others. In most of the conflicts included in the international overview, higher education institutions (HEIs) played instrumental roles during the conflict and the postconflict. Yet, those roles were not always conducive for peacebuilding. Universities, professors and students have been affected by the conflict, have participated in it, and sometimes, have been used by the combating parties for logistical purposes or to promote an ideology. In contrast, delegating a peacebuilding role to higher education is a relatively new phenomenon. Armed conflict in Colombia tends to affect public HEIs more than private ones. Public and private HEIs in Colombia have participated in peacebuilding activities. Sometimes they collaborated with government agencies and NGOs; other times, they worked independently. The contribution of higher education to peacebuilding goes beyond its traditional teaching function and includes many other functions that are hardly mentioned in peacebuilding literature

Texto completo da fonteCurrently, one of the most dramatic threats to human security is constituted by internal armed conflicts. In 1998, violent conflicts took place in at least 25 countries. Of these armed conflicts, 23 were internal, engaging one or more non-State armed groups. A crucial feature of internal conflicts is the widespread violation of humanitarian law and human rights by armed groups, from rebel groups to private militias. This thesis aimed at identifying various ways of promoting a better implementation of the Geneva Conventions and its Protocols by NSAGs in the Great Lakes Region.
