For my thesis project I will be providing an introduction to non-violent change commenting on some prominent and interesting examples. I will then analyze 2 case studies from history - Northern Ireland's peace process and the U.S. Civil Rights movement. Finally, I will analyze a recent case study of a peace that could have been (the Iraq War). All sections will have questions and activities attached for student engagement and I have aligned the content and assessments of each chapter/case study to Common Core State Standards. In high school classrooms, the U.S. and World History curriculum is dominated by war and conflict. My thought is, what if students studied peace movements? Wouldn’t they be more attuned to advocating for non-violent solutions as future leaders? Furthermore, don’t our youth deserve to know these heroic stories of leaders who risked their lives to save many more lives? What follows is a culmination of this vision. ii DEDICATION To John and Aurélie Wallach- My original Educators And to my students past, present and future- You are the key to future peace.

About a dozen years ago, I was teaching at an urban middle school in the city of Boston, Massachusetts, and the violence of the Iraq War was constantly in the news. My students seemed perplexed and sad about this. “Why are we over there?”, they would ask. Coincidentally, I had just come from living in a war torn country. Less than 2 years before, I had served with Jesuit Volunteer Corps in a tiny village in the Himalayan Kingdom of Nepal and experienced an incredibly warm and fascinating culture, but I also saw aching social injustice and violence (as I had in Boston). The Nepali civil war (1996-2006) was tearing this peaceful Buddhist and Hindu country apart, both literally and figuratively. Apart from the violence (including kidnapping of teenagers for “re- education” camps, extortion of teachers, and extrajudicial killings) was the profound psychological fear of the threat of violence. There was also the negative cultural and community impact of creeping distrust among Nepali people and the inability to travel and enjoy some of the most beautiful places in the land. Barely a year after I left Nepal, a miraculous and little known event occurred. I heard this unfold in the news and in communication with various friends and colleagues. The people of Kathmandu, tired of the civil war and an autocratic, non- democratic regime, took to the streets, and in a matter of weeks had caused the King to abdicate the throne and the Maoist rebels to lay down their arms. In real time we had witnessed a modern day non-violent revolution. What the rebels had tried to do for ten long years through widespread, brutal violence and intimidation was accomplished in less than 2 1 weeks by the protests of the brave Nepali people. Meanwhile in Boston, I had students who were recruited by gangs as young as 6th grade and were witnessing violence and gang activity right in their neighborhoods. One of my best memories of that period is of a student named James (strong, funny and athletic - he was looked up to by the other kids) telling me that when the gang members tried recruiting him he would coolly shrug them off, saying “I’m all set”. On the level of international conflict some of my students had family members who were military personnel and sent to Iraq for a conflict many Americans didn’t understand or agree with. Many Americans also knew that there were indeed non-violent alternatives to resolve this conflict. These experiences, and my upbringing at church, Catholic school and family, had strong influences on encouraging peace and social justice. My mother traveled on an integrated bus from Boston, MA to march on Washington in 1963 and witnessed Martin Luther King’s famous “I have a dream” speech. My father bravely participated in civil rights and anti-war marches in Cambridge and Boston in the 1960’s. Soon after moving out of Boston to return to my home state of Maine, I decided to apply for the Rotary Graduate Fellowship in Peace Studies in Bangkok, Thailand. When I was accepted and completed this life-changing fellowship, I decided to continue studying about peace issues at the University of Maine

  • Nobel Nomination 2017 Mairead Benjamin.Pages
    The Peace People, 224 Lisburn Road, Belfast BT9 6GE, Northern Ireland Phone: 0044 (0) 28 9066 346 Ema 16th January, 2017 Mr. Olav Njolstad, Secretary, Nobel Institute, Henrik Ibsens Gate 5l, N-0255 Oslo, Norway. Dear Mr. Njolstad, I write to nominate Medea Benjamin for the 2017 Nobel Peace Prize. Medea is the co-founder of the women-led peace group CODEPINK and the co-founder of the human rights group Global Exchange. While her anti-war work dates back to her high school years during the Vietnam War in the l960s and continued in Africa and Central America in the l970s and l980s her most important recent work has been in response to the 2001 9/11 attacks in the United States. When the Bush Administration responded to those attacks by invading Afghanistan, Medea took 9/11 family members to Afghanistan to meet with the innocent victims of US bombing, then brought the 9/11 families to Washington over and over again to lobby for a compensation fund for the Afghan victims, something they achieved in 2005. Determined to stop the invasion of Iraq, Medea cofounded, with Jodie Evans, the women’s peace group CODEPINK and began a 4-month daily vigil (including a one-month fast) in front of the White House. She was also a founder of the broad US-based coalition of l,500 groups called United for Peace and Justice that co-ordinated anti-war activities throughout the United States. Globally, she was one of the initiators of the 2002 World Social Forum call for a global day of action against the invasion of Iraq on February 15, 2003.

Mairead Maguire ” Amidst the turmoil of the past year, hope sprang forth as women around the world took the lead in nonviolent movements for change. From the democratic uprisings in the Middle East and North Africa, to the quest for justice for survivors of sexual violence in Central America, and the protests against the oil sands pipeline in North America, women have emerged front and centre, as peacebuilders and commu- nity leaders, to put an end to gender violence, promote just societies, and build healthy, sustainable environments.

  • Peace Negotiations in Middle East
    6. Peace negotiations in the Middle East • The Middle East was the scene of five cases of negotiation that accounted for 12.5% of all processes in the world in 2020. • Problems in keeping the agreement on the Iranian nuclear programme afloat persisted throughout the year amidst high tension between Washington and Tehran. • In Yemen, there were mediation and facilitation initiatives to try to achieve a cessation of hostilities and attempts to implement prior agreements between the parties alongside constant escalations of violence. • The chronic impasse in the Palestinian-Israeli negotiations persisted, with no prospects for dialogue after Netanyahu’s plan to formalise the annexation of occupied territories and Trump’s initiative for the region. • The rejection of plans proposed by Israel and the US in 2020 led to rapprochement between Fatah and Hamas and an agreement to hold presidential and legislative elections, although the differences between the parties were once again evident by the end of the year. • The complexity of the armed conflict in Syria had its correlation in the ceasefire and diplomatic initiatives, with a high role for regional and international actors in the negotiation schemes put in place. • Women’s groups in the region continued to demand greater participation in formal negotiations. In Syria and Yemen, they demanded ceasefires to reduce violence and face the COVID-19 pandemic. This chapter studies the main peace processes and negotiations in the Middle East during 2020. Firstly, the main characteristics and general trends on the negotiation processes in the region are presented. Secondly, the evolution of each different context during the year is analysed, including in relation to the gender, peace and security agenda.

  • From Helsinki to Human Rights Watch: How an American Cold War Monitoring Group Became an International Human Rights Institution
    Peter Slezkine From Helsinki to Human Rights Watch: How an American Cold War Monitoring Group Became an International Human Rights Institution On September 7, 2010, George Soros gave Human Rights Watch (HRW) a $100 million grant, the largest in its history. ‘‘I’m afraid the United States has lost the moral high ground under the Bush administration, but the principles that Human Rights Watch promotes have not lost their universal applicability,’’ he said. ‘‘So to be more effective, I think the organization has to be seen as more international, less an American organization.’’1 Today, it is taken for granted that HRW’s scope should be international and its principles universally applicable. It seems self-evident that an organization called Human Rights Watch should strive to monitor abuses wherever they occur and to enforce universal standards on a global scale. It is also understood that to be most effective (and least vulnerable to criticism), HRW should appear to reflect the univer- sality of its principles. In its ideal form, it would operate outside the world of particular allegiances, origins, and ideologies; at the very least, it would embody a global cross-section of particular concerns. Of course, such perfect impartiality and universal representativeness must always remain elusive. A headquarters in New York and a significant percentage of American donors and staff risk tying HRW’s moral standing to that of the U.S. government, as Soros pointed out. And the opening of each new office, the issuing of each new report, and the acceptance of each new donation may be construed as examples of particular biases that would undermine HRW’s declared universalism.
