September 2020 BREAKING DOWN BARRIERS ACCESS TO JUSTICE IN EUROPE FOR VICTIMS OF INTERNATIONAL CRIMES BREAKING DOWN BARRIERS • Access to Justice in Europe for Victims of International Crimes 1 More than 100 000 people have been detained in Syria since March 2011, many of them disappeared by Bashar al-Assad’s regime. Among them was Mansour Omari, a journalist and human rights defender who had documented cases of enforced disappearance and other human rights violations during the Syrian Uprising. In 2012, Mansour was arbitrarily detained by Syrian intelligence in a secret military prison in Damascus. Together with four of his fellow detainees, Mansour recorded the names and contact details of 82 of their cellmates on pieces of fabric using ink made from their blood and rust. When Mansour was released after a year in detention, he left the prison with the pieces of fabric sewn into the cuffs and collar of his shirt. Using the information recorded on the cloth, he began contacting the families to inform them of the whereabouts of their loved ones. Mansour was able to escape from Syria to Lebanon and was later resettled by UNHCR in Europe, where he has built a life in exile.

  • Translating and Representing Citizens' Quotations of The
    Translating and Representing Citizens’ Quotations of the Syrian Humanitarian Disaster in English-Language Newspapers: A Narrative Approach Fadi Jaber Under the supervision of Marc Charron, Ph.D. Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a doctoral degree in Translation Studies School of Translation and Interpretation Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa © Fadi Jaber, Ottawa, Canada, 2017 Abstract In March 2011, following the self-immolation of a Syrian man named Hasan Ali Akleh, several demonstrations were staged across Syria, leading to the arrest of many Syrians in the town of Deraa. These demonstrations escalated into an ongoing conflict in most cities and towns, known as the “Syrian Conflict” (aka “Syrian Crisis,” “Syrian Civil War,” or “Syrian Uprising”). The conflict has resulted in the worst humanitarian disaster since World War II and the Rwandan genocide. According to recent published reports by many international organizations (e.g. United Nations, Amnesty International, Europa), 11.5% of Syria’s population has been killed or injured since the conflict erupted in March 2011, more than 500,000 people have died, over 5 million refugees have fled Syria since 2011, and there has been massive destruction in Syrian cities and towns. This dissertation draws on narrative theory, narrative features, narrative framing, media responsibility, and the representation of the Other to provide a theoretical and conceptual foundation and fulfill the dissertation’s objectives. To do this, it has established a theoretical and conceptual model of analysis specific to the event in question to investigate how the quotations and narratives of Syrian citizens, delivered as texts presented in translation in English-language newspapers, narrate, frame, and represent the Syrian humanitarian disaster.

  • English Our Humanitarian Letter to Stop Genocide, Siege, and Forced
    English Our Humanitarian Letter to Stop Genocide, Siege, and Forced Displacement Based on our belief in the strength of the human conscience, and that people can influence their governments' foreign policies, we address this message to you and to all Parliamentary institutions in the world, hoping to save hundreds of thousands of human lives threatened today in Eastern Ghouta in Syria. We hope that this message will contribute to the formation of a broad front to stop the current genocide against civilians there. Today, civilians in Eastern Ghouta, near Damascus are facing a barbaric campaign of airstrikes, missiles and heavy artillery bombardment, with various instruments of destruction, including internationally prohibited weapons such as (Napalm, Phosphorus bombs, Chemical weapons and toxic gases). In addition to a relentless campaign of indiscriminate bombardment from the air civilians have faced several military incursions via land which have caused displacements of residents from their towns. This massive campaign follows years of blockade, bombing and nonstop military campaigns against the civilian population. In just three weeks, as a result of heavy shelling on civilian neighborhoods and residential buildings, nearly one thousand human lives were lost and thousands were injured. Amongst the victims are hundreds of children, women and elderly people. The assault on Ghouta is being carried out in conjunction with the deliberate targeting of dozens of medical points, hospitals, ambulances and civil defense centers, with the goal of deliberately obstructing the rescue of the injured and the recovery of victims' bodies. The Syrian regime and its allies refuse to abide the Security Council Resolution 2401, which was meant to impose a 30-day ceasefire and allow access to besieged Ghouta to facilitate humanitarian action, and allow the opening of corridors for the delivery of aid.

Rosendorf Chair of the Examining Committee Date Committee in charge: Dr. Neal M. Rosendorf, Chair Dr. Yosef Lapid Professor Kim Seckler Dr. David Keys ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Like most students, I leave my studies deeply in debt. Thankfully, my obligation is not to a bank or institution, but to the many generous scholars who shared their knowledge, judgment, and insights. Dr. Neal M. Rosendorf served as committee chair, advisor, and mentor. My time at NMSU would have been much the poorer without his humor, generosity, and counsel. This thesis grew out of coursework and independent study with Dr. Yosef Lapid. I gained immensely from Dr. Lapid’s expertise and remain deeply grateful for his support. Dr. Jiaqi Liang, too, provided invaluable mentoring and guidance. Dr. Neal Harvey took a chance on a graduate student and allowed me to design and teach my own class on terrorism. I hope the results repaid his trust. Professor Kim Seckler and Dr. David Keys’ incisive questions helped clarify my analysis and provided future directions for research.
