Allcock* INTRODUCTION There has been widespread debate over the possible causes of the break­ up of the former Yugoslav federation, encompassing a broad choice of political, economic and cultural factors within the country, as well as aspects of its in­ ternational setting, which might be considered to have undermined the in­ tegrity of the state. Relatively little attention has been paid, however, to the importance of rural-urban differences in the development of these social and political conflicts. I set it out in this paper to remind the reader of the impor­ tance of this dimension of the disintegration of the former Yugoslavia, al­ though within the format of a brief article it is possible to do no more than il­ lustrate a hypothesis which will certainly require more rigorous empirical examination.

  • Deterring Wartime Atrocities Deterring Wartime Jacqueline R
    Deterring Wartime Atrocities Deterring Wartime Jacqueline R. Atrocities McAllister Hard Lessons from the Yugoslav Tribunal How can the interna- tional community deter government and rebel forces from committing atroc- ities against civilians? Long after liberated Nazi concentration camp survivors held up the ªrst sign declaring, “Never Again!” civilians have faced genocide during civil wars around the world, from Bangladesh to the former Yugoslavia, and more recently in northern Iraq. Sexual violence, torture, and forced dis- appearances are among the other horrors that civilians continue to endure in wartime. In the 1990s, international ofªcials sought to respond to such suffering by es- tablishing a new generation of wartime international criminal tribunals (ICTs), starting with the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) in 1993. The ICTY paved the way for the establishment of the perma- nent International Criminal Court (ICC) ªve years later. Unlike earlier ICTs in Nuremberg and Tokyo, as well as more recent war crimes tribunals in Rwanda, Sierra Leone, Cambodia, East Timor, Lebanon, Bosnia, and Kosovo, the ICTY and the ICC are mandated to prosecute international criminal law violations committed in the context of active armed conºicts. In granting the ICTY and the ICC such authority, their founders hoped that the tribu- nals would deter combatants in those conºicts from perpetrating violence against civilians.1 Nevertheless, more than twenty-ªve years after the ICTY opened its doors, international justice scholars continue to debate the role of wartime tribunals in deterring atrocities against civilians, particularly in ongoing conºicts. Skep- tics contend that, in the heat of battle, combatants are unlikely to perceive a Jacqueline R.

One area which has been largely ignored, however, is the sexual violence during times of armed conflict. This paper examines the nature and dynamics of sexual violence as it occurred during the 1994 Rwandan genocide. Drawing upon testimonies given to the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR), descriptions of rapes--both singular and mass—were qualitatively analyzed. In general, three broad types of assaults were identified: opportunistic, assaults which seemed to be a product of the disorder inherent within the conflict; episodes of sexual enslavement; and genocidal rapes, which were framed by the broader genocidal endeavors occurring at the time.

  • The Political in Bosnia and Herzegovina
    Hunger & Fury: The Political in Bosnia and Herzegovina Jasmin Mujanović A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Re- quirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Political Science York University Toronto, ON May 2016 © Jasmin Mujanović, 2016 Abstract This text is an attempt to (re)approach the process of political and social transfor- mation in Bosnia-Herzegovina (BiH) over the past century and a half through the prism of popular agency. The primary research question of this dissertation asks why given nearly uni- formly catastrophic social indicators across virtually all socio-economic categories there are so few instances of overt popular dissatisfaction (e.g. protests and/or energetic voter turnout) with the prevailing political order in BiH? In addressing this question through an analysis that straddles political theory, international relations, and political economy literatures I focus on the role played by the specific local variant(s) of the nation-state form in essentially depoliti- cizing the majority of the population in this polity. My central argument is that rather than creating the conditions for rational-legal public administration and multi-party competition, the state in BiH has historically served to deny political agency to would-be citizens. The state in BiH has actively sought to eliminate civil society, in other words, and that therefore the de- fining political and social crises in contemporary BiH must be understood in the context of nearly two centuries of this particular and peculiar state (and nation) formation process. I ar- gue that the historic evolution of the BiH polity has been characterized by a form of elastic authoritarianism; the process of seemingly persistent ideological mutation contrasted by static political and economic patterns.

The examination will be conducted in English. Faculty examiner: Professor R. Scott Appleby. Abstract Simonsson, O. 2019. God Rests in Rwanda. The Role of Religion in the 1994 Genocide in Rwanda. Studia Historica Upsaliensia 264. 312 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-513-0655-1. This study analyses the role of religion in the Rwandan genocide, providing new explanations to the complex dynamics of devaluation and victimisation processes in genocidal violence. The thesis explains how religion was used in different contexts prior to, during, and after the 1994 genocide. The following questions guide this study: What kinds of religious concepts and arguments were used in the context of the Rwandan genocide, and how? Why were they used and what did these concepts and arguments mean? Finally, did the meanings of the religious arguments change over time and between different contexts, and if so why? Texts from three sources were analysed: the Hutu extremist propaganda in Kangura magazine and in RTLM broadcasts, and testimonies from the ICTR trials. The analysis was guided by Roger Dale Petersen’s theory on Fear, Hatred, and Resentment, as well as theories on devaluation, social identity, self-victimisation, and competitive victimhood.

  • Strategiju Razvoja Općine Donji Vakuf Za Period 2005
    Na osnovu člana 34. Statuta Op ćine Donji Vakuf (''Službeni glasnik Op ćine Donji Vakuf'' broj 2/98, 2/01 i 6/04), Op ćinsko vije će Donji Vakuf, na svojoj osmoj redovnoj sjednici održanoj 29.08.2005. godine, usvojilo je STRATEGIJU RAZVOJA OP ĆINE DONJI VAKUF ZA PERIOD 2005. –2015. GODINA 1. UVOD Glavni cilj razvojnog procesa zasnovanog na ljudskim pravima je ostvarivanje neotu đivih prava i sloboda svih osoba, a naro čito pripadnika najranjivijih kategorija. Lokalni razvoj zasnovan na ljudskim pravima koji provodi RMAP uzima prava garantovana me đunarodnim i doma ćim zakonodavnim okvirom kao referencu i instrument za analizu stepena razvoja lokalne zajednice, kao i za identifikaciju prioriteta i definisanje razvojnih intervencija. Odgovornost, u češ će, nediskriminacija i vladavina zakona su klju čni principi razvoja zasnovanog na ljudskim pravima. Za razliku od uobi čajenog participativnog procesa planiranja, pristup zasnovan na pravima promoviše odgovornost transformišu ći „potrebe“ stanovništva u odgovaraju ća prava i zahtijevaju ći od vlasti kao nosioca obaveza da postupaju u skladu sa odgovaraju ćim zakonodavnim okvirom. Istovremeno, pristup zasnovan na pravima daje prakti čno zna čenje terminu „participacije“, koja treba biti sveobuhvatna, aktivna i zna čajna da bi omogu ćila stanovništvu da efektivno uti če na oblik i rezultate procesa planiranja razvoja u op ćini. Naglašavanjem jednakosti i nediskriminacije naro čita pažnja se poklanja uklju čenju marginalizovanih grupa u proces planiranja, sa ciljem stvaranja odgovaraju ćeg foruma koji će im omogu ćiti iznošenje vlastitih problema. Razvojna strategija op ćine Donji Vakuf je rezultat zajedni čkog rada stanovništva Donjeg Vakufa i UNDP RMAP-a na prakti čnoj primjeni navedenih principa.
