  • Emergency Rule and Authoritarianism in Republican Sri Lanka
    6 An Eager Embrace: Emergency Rule and Authoritarianism in Republican Sri Lanka Deepika Udagama Introduction Much of Sri Lanka’s post-independence period has seen governance under states of emergency. The invocation of the Public Security Ordinance (PSO)1 by successive governments was a common feature of political life and, indeed, an integral aspect of the political culture of the republic. Several generations of Sri Lankans have grown up and have been socialised into political and public life in an environment fashioned by states of exception replete with attendant symbols and imagery. Images of police with automatic weapons, military check-points, barbed wire, lengthy periods of detention (often administrative detention) mainly of the political ‘other’, the trauma of political violence and the ever- present sense of fear became the ‘normal’. The state of exception has become the norm in Sri Lanka from the 1970s onwards. The permanency of the state of exception was further consolidated when the Prevention of Terrorism (Temporary Provisions) Act, No. 48 of 1979 (PTA) was converted into a permanent law in 1982.2 Although not an emergency regulation, the PTA conferred extraordinary powers on the executive branch (e.g. powers of arrest and detention) to deal with what it recognised as acts of terrorism. That in combination with the ever-present emergency powers, which were sanctioned by the Constitution, provided a formidable legal framework to entrench the state of exception. The omnipotence of the executive presidency created by the second republican constitution (1978) amplified the potency of those exceptional powers. Sri Lanka had become the quintessential ‘National Security State’, the vestiges of which have not been shaken off even five The author wishes to thank Ms.

    COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK I NSTITUTE FOR THE S TUDY OF H UMAN R IGHTS Sri Lanka Peace-building Program PROGRAM ON PEACE-BUILDING AND RIGHTS Executive Summary Columbia University’s Peace-building and Rights Program seeks to advance post-conflict peace- building in Sri Lanka through (i) dialogue, (ii) education, and (iii) capacity building. Its overall goal is to help Sri Lanka realize its potential by helping address recent and root causes of conflict. Following is a comprehensive review of activities since the inception of Columbia’s activities in Sri Lanka. Needs Assessment David L. Phillips, Director of the Program on Peace-building and Rights at the Institute for the Study of Human Rights (ISHR), visited Sri Lanka, including Jaffna, to assess conditions and conduct field research on attitudes and issues of importance to Sri Lankans, including Tamils. Phillips met with Sri Lankan, U.S., Norwegian and Indian government officials as well as leading Sri Lankan NGOs and academics from the University of Jaffna (March 14 – 19, 2011). Curriculum Development Danielle Goldberg, Program Coordinator of the Program on Peace-Building and Rights at ISHR and Phillips drafted a Curriculum Fostering Social Harmony among University Students in Sri Lanka. The curriculum provides a comprehensive course incorporating theoretical and practical lessons on interpersonal interaction and intergroup understanding. Working with Sri Lanka’s Minister for Higher Education S.B. Dissanayake and U.S. Embassy/Colombo, the curriculum was vetted during a series of meetings in Sri Lanka with Ministry of Higher Education and University Grant Commission officials, student counselors and professors from throughout Sri Lanka, university students and civil society (April 3 – 6, 2011).

  • Sri Lanka and the Urgent Need for Accountability Niran Anketell April
    Sri Lanka and the Urgent Need for Accountability Niran Anketell April 2012 Commentators have argued that international pressure on war crimes issues in Sri Lanka is counterproductive because it alienates the majority community and strengthens the hand of a recalcitrant regime. This paper responds to these claims by arguing that the pursuit of accountability, including through international mechanisms, is morally and legally necessary, but also strategically the best available choice for those concerned with human rights and democratic reform in Sri Lanka. The passage of a Resolution entitled ‘Promoting Reconciliation and Accountability in Sri Lanka’ at the 19 th Session of the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) was received with a mixture of nationalistic bluster and discomfiture by the Sri Lankan government. The more sophisticated responses from government quarters asserted that international efforts to pressure the government on accountability for war crimes impedes the quest for genuine national reconciliation and a political solution to the ethnic problem. Similarly, Asanga Welikala – a constitutional lawyer and advocate of constitutional reform – has repeatedly argued elsewhere that international pressure on accountability ‘unintentionally creates the space for the regime to burnish its anti- terrorism, anti-western and patriotic credentials, and thereby shield itself from democratic scrutiny and normal politics.’ 1 He contends that Tamil parties and civil society groups are better off ‘drawing the line at international intervention as well as immediate criminal accountability.’ 2 In this paper, I argue that the pursuit of accountability for war crimes committed in Sri Lanka by Tamil political parties and civil society, including at relevant international fora, is legally and morally necessary, but also strategically the best available choice for furthering the human rights and democracy agenda in Sri Lanka.

    SOUTH ASIA TRENDSSOUTHSOUTH ASIAASIA TRENDSTRENDS Vol 2 No 2 March 1-15, 2011 Volume 2 Number 2 March 1-15, 2011 South Asia Trends is a fortnightly newsletter on South Asian affairs. The purpose of the newsletter is to provide a panoramic view of important events that shape and impact the politics of the subcontinent. The effort would be to inform our readers of the domestic, regional and international repercussions of the political debates and diplomatic engagements that take place in South Asia. Compiled & Edited by Medha Bisht Institute for Defence Studies and Analyses SOUTH ASIA TRENDS Vol 2 No 2 March 1-15, 2011 Editor’s Note The leaked diplomatic cable once again resuscitated anti-Indian sentiments in Nepal. The cable sent on June 18, 2007, provides details of the interaction between Pranab Mukherjee and Madhav Kumar Nepal, where Mukherjee was categorical in expressing his view that the Maoists should not be integrated into the Nepali Army. While this could further strain the relationship between the Maoists and the New Delhi, the timing of the leaked diplomatic cable become significant. This is particularly so, when after a prolonged period of almost two years, Maoists have returned back to power. With the UPCN (Maoists) and CPN- UML joining hands, Nepal in the coming months would be led by Jhalanath Khanal. While it has been announced that the Maoists would be given eleven ministries in the cabinet expansion, ministerial portfolios on Defence and the Home Minister have been an issue of heated contes- tation between both the parties. The Nepali Congress on its part has reiterated its concerns on halting the violent activities of the Maoists, stating that the YCL should be disbanded and seized properties should be returned.

  • Accommodating Minorities Into Sri Lanka's Post-Civil War State

The armed struggle and the consequences of war have encouraged the state and society to address the group rights of ethnic minorities and move forward towards state reconstitution. The Tamil minority and international community expect that the Government of Sri Lanka (GOSL) must introduce inclusive policies as a solution to the ethnic conflict. They believe the state should take measures to avoid another major contestation through the lessons learned from the civil war. The study is a qualitative analysis based on text analysis. In this backdrop, this paper examines the attempts made for the inclusion of minorities into the state system in post-civil war Sri Lanka, which would contribute to finding a resolution to the ethnic conflict.
