EFIL Research Programme EFIL Research Programme Annual Report 2017 Discover the world at Leiden University Welcome Dear all, I am proud to introduce the 2017 Exploring the Frontiers of International Law Research Programme Report. 2017 marked the second year of the Programme after it was split from the Securing the Rule of Law in a World of Multi-Level Ju- risdiction Research Programme. The EFIL Programme has continued to produce high-quality, field-leading research across both the Grotius Centre for International Legal Studies and the International Institute for Air and Space Law. The diversity of research undertaken across the Centre and the Institute demonstrates the ways in which our researchers are ex- ploring how international law applies to new social phenomena and global challenges. But exploring the frontiers of international law requires more than just quality research. It requires that the research be disseminat- ed and shared. Our researchers remain actively involved in the broader community, having published many blog posts and presented at—and hosted—numerous conferences. The Grotius Centre for International Legal Studies now presents three MOOCs, with anoth- er on International Humanitarian Law on the way. Congratulations to all researchers for their achievements in 2017, and we hope this report gives you a taste of the diversity and richness of the research and activities with which we are involved.

From Indifference to Entrapment deals with the question of how the Netherlands faced up to this challenge during the years 1990-1995. It was during this period that the crisis erupted into armed conflict and the single worst war crime in Europe since the end of World War II took place in the ‘safe area’ of Srebrenica. The role of the Netherlands is particularly interesting, as the country held the EC/EU Presidency during the recognition debate in 1991 and supplied the peacekeeping presence in Srebrenica. The questions addressed in this book include: Did early warning work? What role did the Dutch Presidency (July-December 1991) play in the recognition debate? What motiv- ated the Dutch opposition to the Vance-Owen Peace Plan? Why did the Netherlands become From Indifference entrapped, as symbolised through its isolated peacekeeping commitment to Srebrenica? Finally, what can this story tell us about the ability of small and medium powers to in- fluence international affairs? This study is based on interviews with key players, including former Cabinet Minis- ters, and on documents from the Netherlands Ministry to Entrapment of Foreign Affairs, made available under the Dutch ‘freedom of information act’.

  • Statement on the Passing Away of the First High Commissioner on National Minorities, Max Van Der Stoel
    PC.DEL/405/11 5 May 2011 Original: ENGLISH United States Mission to the OSCE Statement on the Passing Away of the First High Commissioner on National Minorities, Max van der Stoel As delivered by Chargé d’Affaires a. i. Carol Fuller to the Permanent Council, Vienna May 5, 2011 The United States would like to express its deep condolences to the family, friends, and colleagues of Max van der Stoel, who passed away on April 23, 2011, in The Hague. Max van der Stoel spent his life championing for the basic human rights of those who had been deprived of them. He set a high standard as the OSCE's first High Commissioner on National Minorities by effectively defending Roma, who he said faced discrimination across Europe; by mediating between combative Albanian and Macedonian communities; and by seeking to ease tensions in the Baltic countries — newly freed from the collapsed Soviet Union — with their ethnic Russian minorities. But he was much more than our first HCNM. As just one example, as the Netherlands’ foreign minister, he visited Prague in 1977, shortly after a band of "dissidents" had written and signed "Charter '77" which called for Czechoslovakia’s implementation of the 1975 Helsinki Final Act. He was struck by the courage of the dissidents. One day when he went back to his hotel, a member of Charter '77, Professor Jan Patocka, was waiting for him. Here was a foreign minister of a Western European democracy in effect recognizing an opposition movement to a Communist government. With the tape recorders rolling, he said a government was not allowed to interfere in the affairs of another state, but that the government of the Netherlands supported the implementation of the Helsinki Final Act in all respects and expected the government of Czechoslovakia to do the same.

Joustra (1921-1996) Arendo Joustra, Het hof van Brussel of hoe Europa Nederland overneemt 6 ‘Het hele recht, het hele idee van een eenwordend Europa, wordt gedragen door een leger mensen dat op zoek is naar een volgende bestemming, die het blijkbaar niet in zichzelf heeft kunnen vinden, of in de liefde. Het leger offert zich moedwillig op aan dit traagkruipende monster zonder zich af te vragen waar het vandaan komt, en nog wezenlijker, of het wel bestaat.’ Oscar van den Boogaard, Fremdkörper (1991) Arendo Joustra, Het hof van Brussel of hoe Europa Nederland overneemt 9 Inleiding - Aan het hof van Brussel Het verhaal over de Europese Unie begint in Brussel. Want de hoofdstad van België is tevens de zetel van de voornaamste Europese instellingen. Feitelijk is Brussel de ongekroonde hoofdstad van de Europese superstaat. Hier komt de wetgeving vandaan waaraan in de vijftien lidstaten van de Europese Unie niets meer kan worden veranderd. Dat is wennen voor de nationale hoofdsteden en regeringscentra als het Binnenhof in Den Haag. Het spel om de macht speelt zich immers niet langer uitsluitend af in de vertrouwde omgeving van de Ridderzaal. Het is verschoven naar Brussel. Vrijwel ongemerkt hebben diplomaten en Europese functionarissen de macht op het Binnenhof veroverd en besturen zij in alle stilte, ongezien en ongecontroleerd, vanuit Brussel de ‘deelstaat’ Nederland.

Verenigd in de afschuw en de verontwaardiging Samenvatting Deze scriptie verklaart de Nederlandse reactie en de relatie met de toenmalige politiek op de executies van vijf linkse gevangenen in Spanje op 27 september 1975. Deze was opmerkelijk omdat executies, die in de voorgaande decennia onder het regime van Franco hadden plaatsgevonden, in Nederland niet tot grote reacties leidden. De opvallende reactie ontstond door meerdere factoren. Ten eerste ontstond er als gevolg van arbeidsmigratie meer banden tussen de Spaanse oppositie en Nederlandse politieke organisaties. Ten tweede ontstond er, rond de tweede helft van de jaren zestig van de twintigste eeuw, een nieuwe politieke cultuur in Nederland. In deze politieke cultuur was een linkse consensus ontstaan die een sterke internationale oriëntatie kende. Deze werd ingezet door de politisering van de postmateriële generatie in de tweede helft van de jaren zestig. Ten derde werden mensenrechten in de jaren zeventig een onderdeel van het Nederlands buitenlands beleid.

  • Challenges for the OSCE – a Dutch Perspective1
    In: IFSH (ed.), OSCE Yearbook 2003, Baden-Baden 2004, pp. 51-59. Edwin Bakker/Bert Bomert Challenges for the OSCE – A Dutch Perspective1 Introduction On 1 January 2003, the Netherlands took over the Chairmanship of the Or- ganization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) from Portugal. However, preparations for this Chairmanship had already begun in 2001, even before the formal decision was made to grant the Chairmanship to the Netherlands. This contribution focuses on the Dutch preparations for the Chairmanship. We will use official documents – in particular documents from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in The Hague and an advisory report of the Advisory Council on International Affairs – to examine Dutch percep- tions of the OSCE. Special attention will be given to the (perceived) crisis in the OSCE and the challenges facing the Organization (and the Chairmanship in particular). The agenda for the Dutch Chairmanship was based on these challenges. Like all its predecessors, the Netherlands stresses, on the one hand, the continuity of the OSCE’s activities regarding recurrent themes. On the other hand, however, every new Chairman – and the Netherlands is no exception in this respect – adds new themes to the activities of the Organiza- tion, which it deems important or necessary. The Netherlands and the OSCE Taking on the responsibility of the Chairmanship-in-Office is in line with the active participation of the Netherlands in the OSCE and its predecessor the CSCE. The Netherlands was closely involved in the Conference on Security and Co-operation in Europe (CSCE) from the very beginning and has always played a pioneering role in both the CSCE and the OSCE.
