  • Kosovo - a Missed Opportunity for a Peaceful Solution to the Conflict?
    In: IFSH (ed.), OSCE Yearbook 1999, Baden-Baden 2000, pp. 79-90. Heinz Loquai Kosovo - A Missed Opportunity for a Peaceful Solution to the Conflict? The Kosovo Verification Mission was a big challenge for the OSCE - the most difficult operational task that it has had to deal with since its founding. Linked to this Mission was the hope for a peaceful solution of the Kosovo conflict. Did it have any chance at all of meeting the expectations attached to it? Was the use of military force in the final analysis inevitable in order to prevent a humanitarian catastrophe? This article undertakes to provide answers to these questions. Of course it represents no more than an initial effort, written mainly from an OSCE per- spective. There must be further studies if we are to have a full picture of the development of this conflict. The Holbrooke-Milošević Agreement Background For a long time the Kosovo conflict stood in the shadow of the war in Bos- nia-Herzegovina. It was not dealt with in the Dayton Peace Agreement of 14 December 1995 because at that time it was not yet so virulent, no quick solu- tion seemed possible and any attempt at one would have put at risk the urgent ending of the Bosnian war. Resistance on the part of the Kosovo Albanians against Serbia's policy of op- pression, for a long time peaceful, had enjoyed no success. At the beginning of 1998, the "Kosovo Liberation Army" (KLA, also known as UCK) began to carry out attacks against Serbian security forces and civilians and against Al- banian "collaborators".

  • A Diplomatic History of the 1998–99 Kosovo Conflict
    FROM DAYTON TO ALLIED FORCE: A DIPLOMATIC HISTORY OF THE 1998–99 KOSOVO CONFLICT by Christian Novak A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences University of Sydney 2017 ii I declare that the research presented here is my own original work and has not been submitted to any other institution for the award of a degree iii Abstract This thesis reconstructs the diplomatic response of the international community to the Kosovo conflict of 1998–99. It outlines the process which resulted in the failure of negotiations involving outside agencies and individuals as well as the recourse to air strikes against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. Using primary sourced material from the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia, personal interviews and other carefully selected primary sources, this thesis explores why international attempts to find a negotiated solution failed. iv Acknowledgements Numerous people have assisted in the completion of this thesis. I would firstly like to acknowledge my research supervisor, Professor Glenda Sluga, for her guidance over the years. My gratitude is also extended to John Drewienkiewicz, Josef Janning, Richard Miles, Klaus Naumann, and Lord David Owen, all of whom took out time from their busy schedules to answer my questions. In particular, I wish to thank Wolfgang Petritsch. His accessibility and willingness to explain the events of 1998–99 considerably enhanced my own understanding of the crisis. Special thanks is reserved for my parents, Anne and David, who have gone above and beyond to support me.

  • Transnational Advocacy Networks for China’S Environment and Public Health
    ABSTRACT Title of dissertation: DOUBLE-MOBILIZATION: TRANSNATIONAL ADVOCACY NETWORKS FOR CHINA’S ENVIRONMENT AND PUBLIC HEALTH Fengshi Wu, Doctor of Philosophy, 2005 Dissertation directed by: Professor Ken Conca Department of Government and Politics This dissertation investigates the nature of transnational advocacy networks and the impact of domestic structures on the development and political relations of such networks. Drawing upon the theoretical frameworks built by Margaret Keck, Katherine Sikkink and Sanjeev Khagram, I, though, challenge the conceptual bias embedded in this body of literature emphasizing contentious political relations between advocacy actors and targeted governments. I use the method of in-depth comparative case studies, and focus on two transnational advocacy networks in nature conservation and HIV/AIDS prevention in China to illustrate my three-fold argument: First, it is necessary to relax the theoretical bias in existing transnational advocacy literature, and recognize that the triangular relationship among the state, local society and international NSAs varies both over time and across issue areas. The two cases studied reveals a what I call the “double-mobilization” character of such networks. This Double-mobilization pattern emphasizes that international advocacy actors endeavor to engage, collaborate with, and advocate around the state, even as they establish connections and solidarity with local societal groups. I propose this double- mobilization concept to capture the gradual, consensual, and sustainable aspect of transnational activism. Second, it is not sufficient to use political regime type as the main causal variable to examine the emergence and evolvement of transnational activism and advocacy networks. Evidence from China has shown that the politics generated by international NSAs in a non-democratic country is complex, and despite strict macro-structures, transnational advocacy networks are emerging.

Vladimir Randáček Supervisor: Prof. PhDr. Lenka Rovná, CSc. Opponent: Prof. Dr. Wilfried von Bredow (Philipps-Universität Marburg) Year: 2008 Hodnocení: Bibliographic Notation RANDÁČEK, Vladimír. The OSCE Verification Mission 1998-1999. Prague: UCharles University, Faculty of Social Sciences, Institute of International Studies, 2008. 120 s. Supervisor Prof. PhDr. Lenka Rovná, CSc., Opponent Prof. Wilfried von Bredow (Philipps-Universität Marburg). Annotation The OSCE Kosovo Verification mission (KVM) was established in October 1998, in order to verify the compliance with the UN Security Council Resolutions relevant to the Kosovo conflict. The breakdown of the peace process in March 1999, lead to the withdrawal of the mission and painted it as a failure. It is surprising, how many authors speak about a failure of the KVM, while giving no reasonable argumentation. This study will try to show, that this negative assessment is largely a product of misinterpretation of the KVM´s mandate and misunderstanding of the very purpose of verification (observation) missions. It was not the task of the KVM to prevent the ceasefire violations, neither to provide a peaceful solution to the conflict. It was to verify (observe) the compliance with the UN Security Council Resolutions. Verification (observation) missions do not seek any concrete achievements (mission goals; as e.g. peacekeeping or peace enforcement missions), their “goal” is their performance.
