International Relations INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS Professor Doutor Armando Marques Guedes Nova Law, school year 2018-2019, 1st semester POST-BIPOLAR MODALITIES OF POWER, RECAST IDENTITY- FORMATION, AND CONFLICT IN AN EMERGENT ‘NEW WORLD ORDER’. IS THE SHAPE OF THE INTERNATIONAL SYSTEM MORPHING? INTRODUCTION While not wanting by any means to skirt a rather thorny issue, the present Program was not designed for future International Relations specialists, but rather for future jurists. Its ambitions are modest, as it aims to provide little more than an introduction to an academic discipline – even if it does so in fairly rich and somewhat demanding manner. Mostly, it offers to provide students with a detailed series of analyses of contemporary international relations from the social-scientific perspective of International Relations (IR). This is by no means a cop-out, as the Program nevertheless does convey much of the gist of what IR has become: a lively and very technical subject-matter, one deeply concerned with the most pressing international political issues of today’s world. These ambitions and aims will be carried out selectively during the semester. We live in a time of change and multi-centered conflicts and accordingly these form the hard core of what follows. The sessions, accordingly, focus a great deal of attention on issues pertaining to identity and its recognition in today’s world, and also on the many tensions and conflicts that beset us all as we try to cope with the very rapid national, sub-national, regional and global transformations which give us no respite. That is not all: the sessions and their ordering also give body to didactic constraints. ‘Narrative’ in style, the semestral introduction that follows is presented in both a wide-angle lens and an in-depth one – as we shall attempt to cover as many examples as it is possible in a semester of as detailed an analytical fashion as we can. Moreover, particular care 1 is taken with concepts and the methodological specificities of International Relations as a discipline. A quick map may prove useful at this juncture. The Program is organized into three major sections (I cast them as one Introduction, and two Parts). As noted, these follow a sequence, which is both a narrative one and one of increasing conceptual complexity. The first step, as this is an introductory program designed for future jurists, maps out concepts and crucial notions relevant in International Relations theory; it consists of two subsets, linked to the chosen topic of the semester. The two following Parts, by far the biggest parcel of this program, includes a series of analyses of some of the most important ‘live fronts’ of contemporary international political dynamics. The middle section (Part 1), larger than the Inteoduction but smaller than the second and last Part 2, focuses on some of the general traits of the relevant international post-bipolar transitions – from the mergence of secessionist infra-state entities to supra-state ones, to different forms of state reactions to their sovereignty and territorial integrity, to the reemergence of religion as a political dimension, to new types of asymmetrical warfare, and the implications of all these factors. Part 2 is an attempt at pulling together the string woven , and does so by trying out a wider take on the highly complex, thickly intertwined, and often very harsh and violent processes we are living through. For each session there is a must-read bibliography. At the end, I added a few more references which are optional. All texts listed are either available at the Faculty, in the Library, or freely available for download at the sites indicated. While the first four sessions of the Program are “magisterial lectures”, the latter ones include a small presentation of the theme by selected groups of students, followed by discussions around them. In terms of Faculty rules there is an obligatory final exam. Both for the exam and the short papers that will serve as the bases for discussions in the second part of the Program, evaluation will depend on clarity in the use of International Relations concepts used and discussed (40%), on knowledge of the examples treated (20%), and on the creativity displayed (40%). 2 Introduction A FRAMEWORK: PERSPECTIVES AND CONCEPTS section 1 SOME GENERAL OPERATIONAL CONCEPTS THE SEDIMENTATION OF THE DISCIPLNE OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS.

  • Brussels-Bruges Report 2008
    INTERNATIONAL FORUM ON DIPLOMATIC TRAINING 36th Meeting of Deans and Directors of Diplomatic Academies and Institutes of International Relations College of Europe Brussels and Bruges 24 – 26 September 2008 The 36th Meeting of Deans and Directors returned to Europe with fond memories of the remarkable Meeting at Maputo in 2007. The co-chairs opened the meeting with renewed thanks and congratulations to the host institutions in Mozambique and South Africa. The College of Europe had organised a similarly innovative programme, commencing in the magnificent Egmont Palace in Brussels, and concluding in the calm beauty of the College in Bruges. In addition to being mounted in two centres, the programme offered for the first time the opportunity to pursue more than one theme, in a series of parallel workshops on current practical aspects of diplomacy. Paul Demaret, Rector of the College of Europe, welcomed Members to the meeting, observing that in troubled times it was more than ever the task of diplomacy to keep channels of communication open. The training of diplomats was central to that mission. Ambassador Jiři Gruša, Director of the Diplomatic Academy of Vienna, noted that diplomacy required an intimate alignment of expert knowledge and human skills, combining efficacy with ethics, economics with cultural awareness. Diplomatic academies harnessed old virtues – wisdom, balance, courage, moderation – to meet new challenges. The Forum had a special contribution to make, a global network of partners helping to forge common understanding and foster non-totalitarian mentality. Professor Casimir Yost brought greetings from one of the founding fathers of the Forum, Dean Peter Krogh, who on this occasion had shown once again strategic vision in putting domestic diplomacy ahead of international diplomacy.

Fui aprovado com Distinção e louvor (por unanimidade). A dissertação intitula-se Constituição e Transcendência: os casos dos regimes comunitários do entre- guerras. A preparação da dissertação de doutoramento decorreu no âmbito do 5.º programa de Mestrado e Doutoramento da FDUNL, sob orientação dos Professores Doutores Conselheira Maria Lúcia Amaral e Armando Marques Guedes. O trabalho foi arguido pelos Professores Doutores Diogo Freitas do Amaral e António Costa Pinto. Em tal dissertação pude analisar os vários regimes "não democráticos de direita" (para utilizar linguagem corrente) do entre-guerras enquanto realidades constitucionais, tendo em conta, designadamente, as constituições escritas de que vários destes regimes se dotaram (empresa comparativa até agora não realizada). Procurei também abrir novas perspectivas em sede de “ciências constitucionais” – explorando, por exemplo, a ideia segundo a qual os fenómenos político-constitucionais são sempre, em última análise, fenómenos de tipo religioso. Os temas e os problemas que investiguei, bem como os novos Pág. 1 olhares analíticos sobre eles lançados, afiguram-se eminentemente actuais (natureza do fascismo e do autoritarismo, a questão da eventual repetição no nosso tempo de modelos político-constitucionais fascistas e autoritários, regresso do religioso e da religião).

  • Thinking East Timor, Indonesia and Southeast Asia
    Armando Marques GUEDES, Lusotopie 2001 : 315-325 Thinking East Timor, Indonesia and Southeast Asia imor is an ethnolinguistic cauldron but unfortunately it is not a melting pot. Its population includes successive overlays of immigrants, Tthe great majority of whom are speakers of Malayo-Polynesian languages added onto pre-established groupings of Melanesians who assimilated into them. In this, East Timor resembles Indonesian West Timor. But also added to this mix are many Chinese, a few Arabic, some Indian and some African traits as well as a few more Western ones mainly among elites of an often mixed European (mainly Portuguese) ascendancy. In this the population is distinguishable from their neighbours in Nusa Tenggara Timur. Such a cauldron, naturally, is the result of a turbulent history. Many of the Indian traits grew out of the ancient commercial emporia (the mysterious empires of Srivijaya and Madjapahit) which, from the 7th and 13th centuries onwards, placed Timor and the rest of the archipelago within their sphere of action, albeit marginally (particularly the later empire). From the 12th century onwards, Arabic merchants replaced them and thrust into insular Southeast Asia, moving west up to and including what we now call Malaysia and east and north as far as Manila, in what is nowadays the Philippines. The Africans mostly arrived as slaves or conscript soldiers, with both groups brought into the territory by the Portuguese colonisation (beginning at an unknown date somewhere between 1512 and 1520 when a small flotilla led by Fernando Serrão anchored off the island on a trip from Malacca to the Mollucas).
