Repression, Human Rights, and US Training of Military Forces from the South Repression, Human Rights, and US Training of Military Forces from the South Ruth Joanna Blakeley A Dissertation Submitted to the University of Bristol in Accordance with the Requirements of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in the Faculty of Law and Social Sciences, Department of Politics, October 2006 Word Count: 79,781 ABSTRACT In order to understand whether US training of military forces from the South has resulted in the use of repression or improvements in human rights, we need to situate the training within the broader context of US foreign policy objectives and strategies. The main aims of US foreign policy are to maintain its dominant global position and to ensure control of resources and markets in the South. These objectives are being pursued through an emerging, US- led transnational state, using the instruments of legitimation at least as much as repression. This contrasts with the Cold War, during which US foreign policy strategy towards the South emphasised repression. US training of military forces from the South during the Cold War played a key role in a US-led network of terror, through which many states in the South were connected to the US and each other by cooperation between their militaries, police and intelligence services. The training was dominated by a particular form of counterinsurgency instruction which advocated repression of groups that might potentially threaten US control of Southern economies and assets. This contributed to widespread human rights violations, particularly in Latin America. Following the end of the Cold War, reliance on the network of terror diminished, and it was subsumed within the emergent transnational state. In line with this shift in US foreign policy strategy in the South, some aspects of the training began to be characterised by the promotion of legitimation. In the wake of 9/11, the US has intensified both its legitimation efforts and its use of repression, and the training continues to play a significant role in the service of US foreign policy objectives.

Introduction The Senate of the States General is very internationally oriented. Historically, the Netherlands has always looked outwards. In view of the country’s open economy and consequent dependence on open borders, it is important for parliamentarians to really engage in international relations. Various members play an active role in the parliamentary assemblies of inte rnational organisations. The Senate has also always been closely involved in European integration. Moreover, it adjusted its procedures in good time to take account of the tasks assigned to national parliaments by the Treaty of Lisbon and its protocols. Members of the Senate take part in structured interparliamentary consultations in Europe, such as the EU Speakers’ Conference of national parliaments, COSAC (the Conference of Community and European Affairs Committees of Parliaments of the European Union), COFACC (the Conference of Foreign Affairs Committee Chairpersons) and CODAC (Conference of the Defence Affairs Committees).

Policy shifts of the post-apartheid period not only necessitated new visions for the future but also new structures. The creation of a value-based new identity in foreign policy needed to be accompanied by a transformation of institutions relevant for the decision-making process in foreign policy. Looking at foreign policy in the era of President Mbeki, however, it becomes obvious that Max Weber’s observation that “in a modern state the actual ruler is necessarily and unavoidably the bureaucracy, since power is exercised neither through parliamentary speeches nor monarchical enumerations but through the routines of administration”,* no longer holds in the South African context.
