  • Humanitarian Intervention and Independence the Proof of the Pudding Is in the Eating
    R2P, HUMANITARIAN INTERVENTION AND INDEPENDENCE THE PROOF OF THE PUDDING IS IN THE EATING Mient Jan Faber∗ Introduction The discourse surrounding humanitarian intervention has inspired a wide variety of legal, political and ethical assessments. Various authors have attempted to impose their own take on the subject. In recent times, the Canadian-sponsored ICISS and its R2P report – discussed in more detail in this issue by Ciarán J. Burke and Thomas G. Weiss - have provided fresh food for thought. However, one area which has been repeatedly overlooked and neglected has been that of the practical, on the ground, mise en oeuvre of these lofty principles. In this article, I argue that the international community must, as John F. Kennedy once promised “turn good words into good deeds”. Principles, frameworks and models based on justice and ethics are all very well, but if lives are to be protected and human security is to be ensured, states must begin to make good on the promises contained in the 2005 World Outcome Document. As I sketch below, with the aid of my own first-hand personal experience, this has not been the case in the recent past. The debate about humanitarian intervention has been overhauled by a debate on ‘The Responsibility to Protect (further: R2P)’. This shift in focus from ‘the right of humanitarian intervention’ to “the right of every man, woman and child threatened by the horror of mass violence to be protected”1 is significant in as far as it signals a constraint on the tendency of states to military intervene in other countries, in order to enforce their policies under the pretext of humanitarian arguments.

  • Civil-Military Interoperability in Support of Nato Emerging Security Challenges
    I&S CIVIL-MILITARY INTEROPERABILITY IN SUPPORT OF NATO EMERGING SECURITY CHALLENGES Jamie SHEA Abstract: A speech by the Deputy Assistant Secretary General, Emerging Security Challenges Division, NATO International Staff, to the Second Workshop on Multi- national Cooperation in Civil-Military Interoperability in Sofia, underlining the im- portance of civil-military interaction and multinational approaches in various frameworks, as well as their important contribution to allied and national capabili- ties to deal with new threats and challenges. Keywords: Counter-terrorism, cyber security, energy security, non-proliferation, defence against terrorism, CIED. Dear participants, First of all, thanks for inviting me to speak at your workshop. Your objectives are certainly on a par with the goals of the Emerging Security Challenge Division which are mainly to ensure that military and civilian worlds can better understand them- selves, find some areas of common interest and finally cooperate in a comprehensive manner. It is also in line with the comprehensive approach and the Strategic Concept. Never- theless to succeed we need to act in a rigorous framework: • What is our NATO expertise, what is our NATO add-value? • Who are the stakeholders we would like to work with? • What kind of complementary projects, cooperation would we like to pro- mote (keeping for each part our specificity)? • What do we want to achieve? • What will be the benefits? The scale of economy? INFORMATION & SECURITY. An International Journal, Vol.27, 2011, 22-24. Jamie Shea 23 Having said that, the ‘Multinational Approach’ is exactly what NATO should pro- mote now, in line with the multinational capability approach under the lead of Allied Command Transformation, the Voluntary Multinational Fund under the Conference of National Armaments Directors (CNAD) and with the support from the Defence Against Terrorism Programme of Work (DAT POW).

    Connections: The Quarterly Journal ISSN 1812-1098, e-ISSN 1812-2973 Peter Rogers, Connections QJ 19, no. 3 (2020): 13-32 https://doi.org/10.11610/Connections.19.3.01 Research Article The Evolution of Resilience Peter Rogers Macquarie University, Australia, https://www.mq.edu.au/ Abstract: The concept of resilience has roots in many disciplines, making the pursuit of a unified theory very attractive but also very difficult. Yet this has not stopped scholars and politicians from attempting to claim resili- ence as their flagship concept and build a canon for the 21st century around it. This tendency to reduce or totalize resilience has spawned a host of taxonomies, each seeking to offer the final word on the definitional de- bate. I argue that this desire to create a unified theory of resilience misap- plies the concept, ignores the dynamics of its emergence and the poly- semic nature of its use in theory, policy, and practice. This malleability makes resilience at once both a very attractive logic for dealing with un- certainty and a dangerous pathway towards embedding untempered algo- rithmic systems of coercive prediction into the governance of everyday life. In understanding the emergence of the resilience concept, one must ap- preciate both the positive and negative potential of this flexible and adap- tive notion. I close by suggesting that resilience has gained such traction in recent years in no small part because it represents a shift in the onto-poli- tics of our time, but that we must be careful about which type of resilience gets enacted.
