  • The Somali Crisis: Failed State and International Interventions
    Istituto Affari Internazionali IAI WORKING PAPERS 12 | 15 – May 2012 The Somali Crisis: Failed State and International Interventions Rossella Marangio Abstract The long-lasting Somali conflict is profoundly linked to the country’s historical development and its socio-cultural specificities. The political milieu and the struggle for power in Somalia reflect the cleavage between tradition and modernity. This rift has led to a legitimacy vacuum, which has made it difficult for the warring parties to find enough common ground for a compromise. Furthermore, external influences, at both regional and international levels, have contributed to the fragmentation of the political arena, due notably to the emphasis on the use of force as the principal tool for acquiring or maintaining power. In this unfolding crisis, regional pressures and rivalries, international interventions, economic and strategic interests as well as piracy, corruption and Islamic extremism all play an interlocking role. In view of this, a new approach to the crisis is badly needed. The EU, in particular, should promote a new strategy based on three components: enhancement of social cohesion through local cooperation programmes, state-building and development.

  • The Military Dynamics of the Syrian Civil War and Options for Limited U.S
    Number 30 August 2013 Forces loyal to Syria's President Bashar al-Asad ride in a tank in the al-Mansoura area of Aleppo’s countryside, June 2, 2013 | Reuters BREAKING THE STALEMATE: THE MILITARY DYNAMICS OF THE SYRIAN CIVIL WAR AND OPTIONS FOR LIMITED U.S. INTERVENTION KENNETH M. POLLACK INTRODUCTION he tragedy of Syria roils on with no end in sight. It nags at our collective conscience and threatens American interests. Many Americans would like to see it ended. Yet our diplomatic efforts are so moribund as to have T become a cruel joke to the Syrian people. There is a growing recognition that the Syrian civil war is now dominated by its military dimension, and until there is a breakthrough on the battlefield, there will be no breakthroughs at the 1 negotiating table. Unfortunately, that seems a distant prospect. Both sides remain convinced that they can defeat the other in combat, and both are terrified that losing will mean their physical destruction. For the foreseeable future, however, it is unlikely that either has the capacity to vanquish the other, although they can certainly make important tactical gains. Both would need considerable assistance to win outright but neither side is ready to trust their lives to the other’s promises, whether spoken or written. Consequently, bringing an end to the conflict in Syria must start with changing the military dynamics of the conflict. As long as the current conditions persist, the war will drag on. Americans have understandably shown little appetite for another Iraq- or Kenneth M. Pollack is Afghan-style commitment of ground forces to the Middle East.

UNIDIR’s activities are funded by contributions from governments and donor foundations. This project is part of UNIDIR’s Weapons of Societal Disruption programme, which works towards limits and controls on the weapons that tear the fabric of societies, such as small arms, cluster munitions, landmines and explosive remnants of war. The programme focuses on generating ideas and practical initiatives to address the security challenges related to the illicit flow, uncontrolled accumulation and misuse of various types of weapons and ammunition that threaten public safety, pose risks to society and impede efforts to achieve sustainable development.

  • External Interventions in Somalia's Civil War. Security Promotion And
    External intervention in Somalia’s civil war Mikael Eriksson (Editor) Eriksson Mikael war civil Somalia’s intervention in External The present study examines external intervention in Somalia’s civil war. The focus is on Ethiopia’s, Kenya’s and Uganda’s military engagement in Somalia. The study also analyses the political and military interests of the intervening parties and how their respective interventions might affect each country’s security posture and outlook. The aim of the study is to contribute to a more refined under- standing of Somalia’s conflict and its implications for the security landscape in the Horn of Africa. The study contains both theoretical chapters and three empirically grounded cases studies. The main finding of the report is that Somalia’s neighbours are gradually entering into a more tense political relationship with the government of Somalia. This development is character- ized by a tension between Somalia’s quest for sovereignty and neighbouring states’ visions of a decentralized Somali state- system capable of maintaining security across the country.
