  • SPECIAL ISSUES and CAMPAIGNS Internally Displaced Family in Sierra Leone
    HUMAN RIGHTS WATCH WORLD REPORT 2002 SPECIAL ISSUES AND CAMPAIGNS Internally displaced family in Sierra Leone. © 1999 CORINNE DUFKA / HUMAN RIGHTS WATCH ACADEMIC FREEDOM xtremism thrived in countries where assaults on academic freedom fos- Etered a climate of ignorance and intolerance.In Afghanistan,the ruling Tal- iban’s first actions were to shut down most higher education and ban women and girls from attending school. But in less extreme forms, governments around the world justified violations of human rights by casting all critical thought as an attack on public morality, national security, or cultural purity. In the wake of the attacks on New York City and Washington, several academics in the United States and Canada came under official or public pressure for questioning various aspects of their governments’ past or projected policies. With another international conflict simmering, violations of academic freedom were likely to increase around the globe. Even before September 11, 2001, academic groups were growing increasingly aware of the importance of international cooperation and coordination in support of their colleagues’ freedom. The international Network on Education and Acade- mic Rights (NEAR) was created in June 2001 to serve as a repository and clearing- house for information about academic freedom cases. With initial funding from UNESCO, the network promised to expand on the existing contact and coopera- tion between academics and academic groups. As the network’s name indicated, NEAR’s understanding of academic freedom embraced not just the civil and polit- ical rights of scholars and their students, but also the social, economic, and cultural rights associated with the fundamental human right to education.

  • Contracting in Complex Operations: Toward Developing a Contracting Framework for Security Sector Reconstruction and Reform
    SYR-CM-14-185 Contracting in Complex Operations: Toward Developing a Contracting Framework for Security Sector Reconstruction and Reform Final Technical Report: Naval Postgraduate School Acquisition Research Program Grant No. N00244-13-1-0021 Nicholas J. Armstrong, Ph.D. David M. Van Slyke, Ph.D. Syracuse University Abstract Scholarship on private military and security companies largely focuses on their regulation and oversight as security and reconstruction service providers. It gives scant attention, however, to their role as institutional reformers, advisors, and trainers. This report presents findings of an in- depth case study on the challenges of procuring advising and training services in Afghanistan. The study is grounded in the analysis of 77 confidential, semi-structured interviews with elite and mid- level officials embedded within the Afghan defense and interior ministries, national army, and national and local polices forces and further supported by 261 Afghanistan training and advising contract documents obtained via Freedom of Information Act request. We evaluate an existing contracting framework for the purchase and integration of complex products with this data and find that rules, relationship strategies, governance mechanisms, and mutual understanding are critical in security sector reform (SSR) training and advising contracts. However, reliance on the private sector to provide these services will likely remain high, thus, a sharper focus is necessary on mutually beneficial outcomes that retain flexibility and accountability over the long run. To achieve these outcomes, greater attention is needed to hiring the right people, contract design must balance requirements specificity with flexibility, and contract management activities must seek to bridge gaps among the critical actors involved with respect to roles, responsibilities, and critical capabilities.
