  • 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.

Vladimír R a n d á č e k The OSCE Kosovo Verification Mission 1998-1999 A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Magister Scientiae in European Studies Prague 2008 Author: Bc. 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.

The methodology that is used to assess the primary question (What is the impact of globalization on war?) involves the utilisation of one manifestation of globalization - the CNN effect - that is operationalised to assess one area of potential impact - Western foreign policy during the Kosovo civil war. The dissertation is arranged into two sections. The first is largely theoretical and defines globalization, explains how the CNN effect is a manifestation of globalization and reviews the CNN effect on war at a theoretical level. The second is largely empirical and involves a detailed case study of Kosovo specific media coverage and foreign policy in the West over the fifteen-month period before the 1999 NATO intervention.

How should Baku use this money most wisely? Prof. Jeffrey Frankel: The first thing Azerbaijanis must be aware of is the unfortunate experiences of other countries in such circumstances. Most of them 1 spend the money quickly on high visibility projects with few long-term positive consequences. That has happened many times, sometimes even in the presence of the best of intentions. Indeed, it is so common that a term has arisen to describe it: the natural resource curse. Sometimes this happens because governments assume that the money will always be coming in and thus fail to save enough for when the oil runs out or prices fall: unfortunately, even the countries that say they are going to save the oil revenue end up not doing it, because it is so tempting just to spend. And sometimes it happens because governments try to monopolize the earnings rather than include individual citizens and private markets as players.

COMMUNICATING STRATEGICALLY: PUBLIC RELATIONS AND ORGANISATIONAL LEGITIMACY A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Waikato by Michèle A. Schoenberger-Orgad __________________ University of Waikato 2007 Abstract This thesis aims to facilitate an understanding of some of the critical debates in public relations theory and practice. It joins others in contributing to a shift from a functional systems-based public relations paradigm to one where public relations is transparently seen as playing a role in shaping democracy in a global society. The research analyses NATO’s communication operations in the Kosovo Campaign against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, examining the case from a number of different perspectives. The thesis contributes to the body of knowledge of public relations practices and how, in this case, they were used to inform and persuade publics of the moral cause of a bombing mission to achieve specific strategic organisational and communication goals.
