I would like to thank my dissertation committee, Dr. David Pion-Berlin and Dr. Bronwyn Leebaw, from the Department of Political Science at the University of California, Riverside, and Dr. Donna Schlagheck at Wright State University. Dr. Pion- Berlin especially helped me to transform this originally small idea into a life-changing project. For this, I could never be thankful enough. I would also like to thank Dr. Martin Johnson, Dr. Feryal Cherif, and Dr. Austin Turk in their initial input on this project. In addition, I would like to thank Dr. Ralph Salmi for always providing guidance and input over the many years I have been studying political violence. Due to the intensive case studies I conducted for this project, a number of scholars of political violence were instrumental in assisting me in gaining interviews with key players within guerrilla movements and their political organizations. In the case of my fieldwork in Northern Ireland, I would like to especially thank the following individuals: Dr. Neil Jarman, Director of the Institute for Conflict Research in Belfast, Northern Ireland; and Professor Richard English and Professor Adrian Guelke from Queen’s University Belfast in Northern Ireland; and Mike Ritchie and Dr. Laurence McKeown from Coiste na nIarchimí in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Each of these individuals was instrumental in assisting me in gaining the needed contacts in Northern Ireland. I would also like to thank Sinn Féin in Northern Ireland for their assistance and their accessibility. In particular, I would like to thank Cara McShane, Brian Keane, Ned Cohen, and Máire Grogan. I would especially like to thank Mr. Gerry Adams and his iv office staff for assisting me in gaining interviews within Sinn Féin. I would like to thank Natalia Carvajal-Hale and Colin Hale and Oscar and Gloria Carvajal for providing feedback in the case of Colombia and the FARC-EP. Dr. Rohan Gunaratna and Dr. John Harrison from the International Centre for Political Violence and Terrorism Research (ICPVTR) at the Institute of Defence and Strategic Studies, Singapore acted as a sounding board for my research as it progressed. Additionally, I would like to thank Dr. Jamal Nassar, Dean of the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences at California State University, San Bernardino, for providing me with feedback concerning the project. I would like to thank my colleagues and the entire Department of Political Science at the University of California, Riverside who acted as a sounding board and support at various times during my studies and the completion of this project. This project would not have been possible without the personal support from my friends, colleagues, and family. I would like to thank my parents, Vickie Smith, Daniel Washburn, and Susan Mecum for their support over the years. In addition, I would like to give special thanks to my friends and colleagues, Thomas Martin Doyle, Jr., Masahiro Omae, Shawn Schulenberg, Byran Martin, Alexis Broncatello, and Tanya Espinoza- O’Hare for their input, feedback, and support. Lastly – and certainly not least – I would like to give my deepest thanks to the love of my life, Ms. Jennifer Harrison. Without her daily support and patience (particularly in the last stages of the study), the completion of this project would never have been possible. Any errors or omissions in this work are solely my own. v Dedication To Jimmie L. Alford, my grandfather, who instilled in me the passion for learning that has lead me to this project and to instill the same passion in other people. vi ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Guerrillas Today, What Tomorrow: Transformation of Guerrilla Movements by Kevin Edward Grisham Doctor of Philosophy, Graduate Program in Political Science University of California, Riverside, December 2009 Dr. David Pion-Berlin, Chairperson In recent years, there has become a greater need to understand how rebellious organizations (particularly, guerrilla movements) may transform into new organizations during conflict and following the end of major hostilities. During conflict and following conflict, either rebellious organizations become the new state, cease to exist or they transform into something completely different. In looking specifically at guerrilla movements, one can see many have transformed into other types of organizations including political parties, terrorist organizations, and criminal organizations. This phenomenon leads to the following questions: how do guerrilla movements transform in conflict and post-conflict environments? This study contends this transformation occurs because of the interaction between four independent variables – resources (both physical and human resources), beliefs and associated frames and political accessibility. The manners in which these variables interact are influenced by ‘who’ has the advantage during the conflict – the state or the guerrilla movement and what kind of advantage they vii have – social, political or resource power advantages. Through the study of two paired comparisons (four individual case studies – the Provisional Irish Republican Army and Sinn Féin [PIRA/SF] in Northern Ireland, and the Spear of the Nation [Umkhonto We Sizwe ] and the African National Congress [MK/ANC] in South Africa, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia [FARC] in Colombia and the Abu Sayyaf Group [ASG] in the Philippines), this work traces the mechanisms and processes that have lead these organizations to transform into political parties and criminal organizations. Using qualitative comparative methodology (i.e., field interviews, archival research and historical analysis of each former guerrilla movement), this study finds that each transformation is a result of the interaction of the four independent variables in a particular way. These interactions influence the relationship between the various subgroups in the guerrilla movements and therefore, these interactions influence changes in the overall structure of the guerrilla movement. Likewise, these new structures take on different means and ends than when compared to their previous guerrilla movement form. viii TABLE OF CONTENTS List of Figures xvi List of Tables xvii CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION 1 The Tradition of the Scholarship Concerning Civil Wars And Rebellion 3 Changes in Organizations Who Struggle Against the State 8 OUTLINE OF WORK 11 IMPLICATIONS OF RESEARCH 13 BIBLIOGRAPHY 15 CHAPTER 2: THE GUERRILLA MOVEMENT & ITS ORGANIZATIONAL OUTCOME WHY IS DEFINING NECESSARY? 18 ONE MAN’S GUERRILLA FIGHTER, ANOTHER MAN’S TERRORIST 20 How is the Guerrilla Movement Different from the Terrorist Organization? 22 THE PROBLEMATIC NATURE OF DEFINING “TERRORISM” 26 U.S. Municipal Law and Definitions of “Terrorism” 26 International Law and The Historical Development of Defining “Terrorism” 27 A Scholarly Approach to Defining “Terrorism” 28 Why is There No Single Definition of “Terrorism?” 31 The Definition of Terrorist Organization Used in This Study 35 ix THE OTHER TWO ORGANIZATIONS – POLITICAL PARTY AND CRIMINAL ORGANIZATIONS 35 Political Parties: How Do We Define 36 A Definition of Political Parties 39 Criminals and Criminal Organizations 40 A Definition of Criminal Organizations 45 CONCLUSION 45 BIBLIOGRAPHY 47 CHAPTER 3: THE COLLECTIVE POLITICAL VIOLENCE TRANSFORMATIVE MODEL INTRODUCTION 51 Processes, Mechanisms, and Transformation 52 Contentious Politics: What Is It and How Does It Apply? 55 Social Movements and Development of a Struggle 58 A THEORETICAL EXPLANATION OF COLLECTIVE POLITICAL VIOLENCE TRANSFORMATION 66 DEFINING THE VARIABLES OF THE CPVT MODEL 69 Antecedent Condition 69 Belief Systems and Associated Frames 74 Beliefs, Associated Frames, and the Internal Dynamics of the Group 77 Political Accessibility 79 Human Resources and Physical Resources 82 Interactions and Outcomes 83 Assumptions Underlying the CPVT Model 83 x THE COLLECTIVE POLITICAL VIOLENCE TRANSFORMATIVE (CPVT) MODEL 86 Guerrilla Movement To Political Party 87 Guerrilla Movement To Criminal Organization 95 CONCLUSION 104 BIBLIOGRAPHY 106 CHAPTER 4: THE METHODOLOGICAL APPROACH INTRODUCTION 110 DEVELOPMENT OF GUERRILLA MOVEMENT DATASET 112 CASE SELECTION APPROACH 118 Selecting On the Dependent Variable 120 Cases Selected 122 Variability In Context and Controlling for This Variability 122 APPROACHES TO DATA COLLECTION 126 PROCESS TRACING AND ITS APPLICATION 129 COMPARISON AMONGST THE CASES: AN ADJUSTMENT 132 CONCLUSION 133 BIBLIOGRAPHY 134 CHAPTER 5: REVOLUTIONARY ARMED FORCES OF COLOMBIA (FARC) AND THE ABU SAYYAF GROUP (ASG) INTRODUCTION 137 COMPARING FARC-EP AND ABU SAYYAF 138 A CASE STUDY: FARC-EP 139 An Alternative Route Of FARC-EP Development: A Counterfactual Argument 144 xi Modern Development of FARC-EP: Land Struggles to Connection With Illicit Drugs 145 A Desire for Peace With Colombia: Repeated Opportunities For Political Accessibility 154 Era of Uribe In Colombia and FARC-EP Today

  • Policing in Divided Societies: a Comparative Study Between Northern Irish and Lebanese Police Experiences
    LEBANESE AMERICAN UNIVERSITY Policing in Divided Societies: A Comparative Study between Northern Irish and Lebanese Police Experiences By Amr Khaled Yafawi A thesis Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in International Affairs School of Arts and Sciences September 2013 ii ii iii iii iv iv v vi Policing in Divided Societies: A Comparative Study between Northern Irish and Lebanese Police Experiences Amr Yafawi Abstract This thesis compares models of policing in divided societies as applied in Lebanon and Northern Ireland and highlights the advantages and disadvantages of each. This is particularly significant due to the fact that both Lebanon and Northern Ireland have been challenged in their law enforcement abilities while confronted by a fragmented sectarian politics. Communal perception of law enforcement practices are typically shaped by strong sectarian biases that often undermine the effective application of the law. The thesis explores the reasons why the police force in Lebanon has not been able to gain public confidence. Comparative public opinion data from both countries are collected and analyzed. Results suggest that enhancing public confidence in Lebanese police force and strengthening positive public perception in the country‟s law enforcement agencies require strong communal interventions .Lessons drawn from the Northern Irish experience and analysis of Lebanese public opinion data suggest that in a post-conflict situation Community Oriented Policing (COP)needs to be combined with Problem Oriented Policing (POP) as a transitional approach that can strengthen community-police relations. This conclusion has been further confirmed by a series of interviews completed with chief police officers in both countries.

  • Terrorism Versus Democracy
    Downloaded by [University of Defence] at 20:58 07 June 2016 Terrorism versus Democracy This book examines the terrorist networks that operate globally and analyses the long-term future of terrorism and terrorist-backed insurgencies. Terrorism remains a serious problem for the international community. The global picture does not indicate that the ‘war on terror’, which President George W. Bush declared in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, has been won. On the other hand it would be incorrect to assume that Al Qaeda, its affiliates and other jihadi groups have won their so-called ‘holy war’ against the Coalition against Terrorism formed after 9/11. This new edition gives more attention to the political and strategic impact of modern transnational terrorism, the need for maximum international cooperation by law-abiding states to counter not only direct threats to the safety and security of their own citizens but also to preserve international peace and security through strengthening counter-proliferation and cooperative threat reduction (CTR). This book is essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of terrorism studies, political science and international relations, as well as for policy makers and journalists. Paul Wilkinson is Emeritus Professor of International Relations and Chairman of the Advisory Board of the Centre for the Study of Terrorism and Political Violence (CSTPV) at the University of St Andrews. He is author of several books on terrorism issues and was co-founder of the leading international journal, Terrorism and Political Violence. Downloaded by [University of Defence] at 20:58 07 June 2016 Series: Political Violence Series Editors: Paul Wilkinson and David Rapoport This book series contains sober, thoughtful and authoritative academic accounts of terrorism and political violence.

  • New Labour, Old Morality
    New Labour, Old Morality. In The IdeasThat Shaped Post-War Britain (1996), David Marquand suggests that a useful way of mapping the „ebbs and flows in the struggle for moral and intellectual hegemony in post-war Britain‟ is to see them as a dialectic not between Left and Right, nor between individualism and collectivism, but between hedonism and moralism which cuts across party boundaries. As Jeffrey Weeks puts it in his contribution to Blairism and the War of Persuasion (2004): „Whatever its progressive pretensions, the Labour Party has rarely been in the vanguard of sexual reform throughout its hundred-year history. Since its formation at the beginning of the twentieth century the Labour Party has always been an uneasy amalgam of the progressive intelligentsia and a largely morally conservative working class, especially as represented through the trade union movement‟ (68-9). In The Future of Socialism (1956) Anthony Crosland wrote that: 'in the blood of the socialist there should always run a trace of the anarchist and the libertarian, and not to much of the prig or the prude‟. And in 1959 Roy Jenkins, in his book The Labour Case, argued that 'there is a need for the state to do less to restrict personal freedom'. And indeed when Jenkins became Home Secretary in 1965 he put in a train a series of reforms which damned him in they eyes of Labour and Tory traditionalists as one of the chief architects of the 'permissive society': the partial decriminalisation of homosexuality, reform of the abortion and obscenity laws, the abolition of theatre censorship, making it slightly easier to get divorced.

Introduction The EU PEACE Programmes are distinctive initiatives of the European Union to support peace and reconciliation in the programme area. The first PEACE Programme was a direct result of the European Union's desire to make a positive response to the opportunities presented by developments in the Northern Ireland peace process during 1994, especially the announcements of the cessation of violence by the main republican and loyalist paramilitary organisations. The cessation came after 25 years of violent conflict during which over 3,500 were killed and 37,000 injured.
