  • Child Soldiers and Military Actors
    CHILD SOLDIERS AND MILITARY ACTORS: A VARIATION IN DETENTION POLICIES ACROSS LIBERAL DEMOCRACIES by Iuliia Hoban A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Global Affairs written under the direction of Dr. Simon Reich and approved by _______________________________________________ Dr. Simon Reich _______________________________________________ Dr. Ariane Chebel d’Appollonia _______________________________________________ Dr. Gregg Van Ryzin _______________________________________________ Dr. David Rosen Newark, New Jersey May 2018 © 2018 Iuliia Hoban ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Child Soldiers and Military Actors: A Variation in Detention Policies across Liberal Democracies By: IULIIA HOBAN Dissertation Chair: Dr. Simon Reich The professional militaries of Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom have increasingly recognized that children can become part of opposing forces and face the operational and policy decisions regarding their detention. These Anglo-Saxon, consolidated, liberal democracies demonstrate a high level of similarity, in terms of their shared norms and values, and common security practices. Nonetheless, these three countries have developed distinct policies on the detention of child soldiers. This dissertation addressed the question: what explains the cross-national variation in the development of policies on the detention of child soldiers in Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States? In order to answer this research question, I proposed a series of hypotheses to examine the role of three strategic actors in the policy process: military lawyers, government officials, and representatives from non-governmental organizations. I analyzed data that required both quantitative and qualitative methods to test these hypotheses.
