Editorial La notion de «victimes de guerre» est polysemique. Elle peut s'entendre comme regroupant I'ensemble des personnes que Ie droit humanitaire cherche aproteger lors d'un con flit arme (international ou non international). On sait que, souvent, les affrontements armes touchent - directement ou indirectement - l'ensemble de la population du (ou des) pays en guerre, que toute personne peut etre atteinte dans son integrite physique ou men­ tale ou dans la jouissance de ses droits fondamentaux, peut souffrir moralement ou perdre ses biens. L'aide humanitaire apportee atoutes les victimes de guerre ainsi entendues vise a attenuer, dans la mesure du possible, les consequences nefastes des conflits. Les organi­ sations humanitaires a l'reuvre dans une situation de conflit suppleent souvent l'aide defaillante des parties et leur action doit en principe reposer sur les principes fondamen­ taux de la Croix-Rouge et du Croissant-Rouge: l'assistance humanitaire doit etre fournie aux victimes de maniere impartiale et non discriminatoire. A I'issue d'un conflit, l'action humanitaire devrait se conformer aux memes princi­ pes. Toutefois, dans la mesure oD les besoins urgents et immediats ne suffisent plus agui­ der l'action, Ie choix des beneficiaires ainsi que la duree et l'ampleur de l'action humani­ taire semblent autrement plus difficiles adeterminer. Le c/CR s'est pencM sur cette ques­ tion delicate et a tente d'apporter des reponses: Marion Harroff- Tavel dessine, dans son article sur l'action du c/CR dans les periodes de transition, les raisons de cette politique et les criteres d'action dont I'institution s'est do tee pour apprehender au mieux de telles situations. *** Cependant, en droit international, la notion de « victime »se definit normalement de maniere plus restrictive, car elle ne couvre que les personnes ayant subi un prejudice par suite d'un fait internationalement illicite. Acet egard, if convient de noter que Ie droit inter­ national humanitaire ne prevoit de reparation qu'en cas de violation de ses normes. Cette acception forme un cercle de «victimes» nettement plus etroit que pour les organisations humanitaires, puisqu'une personne tuee dans Ie respect du principe de proportionnalite (les fameux dommages collateraux) ne serait pas en ce sens une «victime», tan dis que son voisin, touche 100 metres plus loin par un bombardement aveugle, Ie serait et pourrait donc beneficier d'une reparation. Toutefois, meme au sein de ce cercle restreint de victi­ mes, la grande majorite n'obtient jamais la reparation alaquelle elles auraient droit. Des ouvertures se profilent toutefois al'horizon. L'article de Liesbeth Zegveld examine la question du droit areparation des victimes de violations du droit international humanitaire et analyse les moyens juridiques mis aleur disposition ainsi que la mesure - limitee - dans laquelle elles peuvent faire valoir ce droit.

As homesteaders, hunters, miners and cattle ranchers flooded onto the Plains, they not only came into conflict with the Plains Indians who already lived there, but also with each other. This was a time of robberies, range wars and Indian wars in the wide open spaces of the West. Gradually, the forces of law and order caught up with the lawbreakers, while the US army defeated the Plains Indians.

As a "bad" badman, a threat to the moral order, the Kid had to die so that civilization-repre­ sented by Sheriff Pat Garrett-could advance. This formula of conflict and resolution by death can be detected in dime novels and early magazine accounts, which dwell on the Kid's unheroic appearance and bloodthirsty char­ acter. After a period of meager interest, by the mid-1920s a quite different figure was being molded by biographers and film makers. This was the prototypical "good" badman, one who personifies a kind of idealism. In Walter Noble Burns's key biography in 1926 and in a 1930 film, the Kid becomes a redeemer who helps small farmers.

  • Palestine/Israel: Making Monitoring Work: (Re-) Enforcing International Law in Europe
    Palestine/Israel: Making Monitoring Work: (Re-) Enforcing International Law in Europe A CONFERENCE BRINGING TOGETHER PALESTINIAN, ISRAELI, AND EUROPEAN HUMAN RIGHTS NGOS AND LAWYERS. Conference Report HOSTED BY THE CENTRE FOR ECONOMIC LAW & GOVERNANCE, FREE UNIVERSITY BRUSSELS FOREWORD International humanitarian law risks becoming a ‘dead letter’ unless transgression of its principles is met with a response that does justice to the harm suffered by its victims. The idea of this conference, held in September 2008 in Brussels, Belgium, stems from regular meetings between Diakonia and local Israeli and Palestinian Human Rights organisations, whose fieldworkers tirelessly record and document the daily human rights and IHL violations. Our mission thus far had been to support the monitoring process by providing training on documentation methods, and guidance on interviewing, evidence preservation, storage and archiving. However, we were con- stantly asked the question: what is the use? What is the use of gathering all this information and document every aspect of violations if reports only end up gathering dusts in archives and folders? This is not an effective way of increasing the respect for IHL and it triggers the pivotal question - how can we make monitoring work? Effective enforcement of international humanitarian law in the context of Israel/Palestine requires a readiness on part of civil society organisations and public opinion makers to support legal enforcement actions. Civil society organisations also play a vital role in educating the public on both the violations committed, and the need to bring perpetrators from Israel/Palestine, as well as their accomplices in Europe, to national or international justice.

With the rise of mass media, such offenders also began sending verbal communications to journalists and the authorities. Unsurprisingly, the 21st century has seen alienated killers promote their violent actions and homicidal identities through online communications: from VLOGs to manifestos, even videos depicting murder and corpse mutilation.

  • Billy the Kid Suite Aaron Copland (1900 - 1990)
    ASO Program Notes Billy the Kid Suite Aaron Copland (1900 - 1990) Aaron Copland was born in Brooklyn and grew up in his family’s apartment over their general store on Washington Avenue. He went to school in Brooklyn and was the only musician in his family. His first exposure to composition was in high school, where he took lessons in the basics. It was enough to fire his imagination, and when he graduated he chose to go to Paris to study, staying four years and mastering the art of sophisticated composition. He was always interested in folk tunes and how they could be presented in fresh ways. In the mid-1930s he visited Mexico and adapted many of the tunes he heard into El Salon Mexico. This was so well- received that he was encouraged to do the same with American folk tunes. The perfect opportunity came when prominent director Lincoln Kirstein commissioned a suite of music for a ballet based on the young outlaw Billy the Kid. The result was an amazing evocation of the old west in America, incorporating old cowboy tunes, as well as original music, into a brilliant mix. The suite of music that Copland pulled from the one-act ballet and adapted for orchestra was first performed in New York in 1941. “Street in a Frontier Town” is the most extensive section, where we first meet Billy as a boy of twelve. He and his mother encounter a street brawl which turns ugly, and Billy’s mother is killed. Billy quickly grabs a knife from a cowhand’s belt and stabs his mother’s attackers.
