  • Cambodia: Human Rights Before and After the Elections
    May 1993 Vol.5 No.10 CAMBODIA: HUMAN RIGHTS BEFORE AND AFTER THE ELECTIONS I. INTRODUCTION Cambodians will go to the polls on May 23 in an atmosphere of political and ethnic violence and renewed civil war. The elections are the culmination of a 17-month United Nations presence, the largest, most ambitious and most expensive peace-keeping effort ever, which was supposed to bring about an end to the conflict. Instead, Cambodia is faced with as much fighting as when the United Nations Transitional Authority in Cambodia (UNTAC) entered the country in March 1992, and a spiralling level of serious human rights abuses. The "neutral political environment" that was supposed to be the precondition for elections is entirely absent. The five permanent members of the Security Council and other drafters of the 1991 Paris peace accords, formally known as the Agreements on a Comprehensive Political Settlement of the Cambodia Conflict, are determined to go ahead with the elections regardless. But what happens on May 23 is almost less important than what happens in the days after the results are announced. Asia Watch believes that an analysis of the missteps that led to the current human rights situation is critically important to determining how, or perhaps whether, human rights of Cambodians can be protected under whatever government comes to power then. The reasons for the deterioration in the human rights situation in late 1992 and early 1993 are complex. None of the parties to the conflict has a history of respect for human rights and one, Democratic Kampuchea, better known as the Khmer Rouge, has one of the worst human rights records in modern history.

For more information contact [email protected] ASEAN Intervention in Cambodia: From Cold War to Conditionality Lee Jones Abstract Despite their other theoretical differences, virtually all scholars of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) agree that the organisation’s members share an almost religious commitment to the norm of non-intervention. This article disrupts this consensus, arguing that ASEAN repeatedly intervened in Cambodia’s internal political conflicts from 1979-1999, often with powerful and destructive effects. ASEAN’s role in maintaining Khmer Rouge occupancy of Cambodia’s UN seat, constructing a new coalition government-in-exile, manipulating Khmer refugee camps and informing the content of the Cambodian peace process will be explored, before turning to the ‘creeping conditionality’ for ASEAN membership imposed after the 1997 ‘coup’ in Phnom Penh. The article argues for an analysis recognising the political nature of intervention, and seeks to explain both the creation of non- intervention norms, and specific violations of them, as attempts by ASEAN elites to maintain their own illiberal, capitalist regimes against domestic and international political threats. Keywords ASEAN, Cambodia, Intervention, Norms, Non-Interference, Sovereignty Contact Information Lee Jones is a doctoral candidate in International Relations at Nuffield College, Oxford, OX1 1NF, UK.

  • Armed Conflicts Report - Cambodia
    Armed Conflicts Report - Cambodia Armed Conflicts Report Cambodia (1978 - first combat deaths) Almost a decade after the 1991 Paris Peace Accords mapped out a peace process for Cambodia, the country has been removed from the list of armed conflicts because both years 2000 and 1999 saw fewer than 25 deaths arising from political conflict. The recent disbandment of the Khmer Rouge and a beginning to demobilization of government troops reinforced the relative peace. Summary Type of Conflict Parties to the Conflict Status of the Fighting Number of Deaths Political Developments Background Arms Sources Summary: 1999 After final defections to the government, the Khmer Rouge ceased to be a military threat. Extrajudicial killings by the police and military continued, but there were no reports of politically- motivated killings. 1998 Following a February ceasefire between forces loyal to Prince Ranariddh and the government, armed clashes largely arose from government pursuit of the remnants of Khmer Rouge troops in northern Cambodia. Several villagers died in Khmer Rouge attacks, but most of the more than 70 civilian deaths in 1998 were attributed to political killings by government forces, and to violence before and after July elections. 1997 After months of escalating political tension and violence, government forces loyal to Asecond@ Prime Minister Hun Sen staged a July coup that ousted Afirst@ Prime Minister Norodom Ranariddh and executed leaders of his royalist troops. Despite mass defections and internal divisions that resulted in the execution of a former defence minister and the reported imprisonment of leader Pol Pot, Khmer Rouge guerrillas continued extrajudicial killings and, after July, cooperated with royalists in fighting government troops.

KRAYNANSKI has been approved for the Center for International Studies by ________________________________________ Elizabeth Fuller Collins Associate Professor, Classics and World Religions _______________________________________ Drew McDaniel Interim Director, Center for International Studies Abstract Kraynanski, Joan M., M.A., June 2007, Southeast Asian Studies WOMEN WALKING SILENTLY: THE EMERGENCE OF CAMBODIAN WOMEN INTO THE PUBLIC SPHERE (65 pp.) Director of Thesis: Elizabeth Fuller Collins This thesis examines the changing role of Cambodian women as they become engaged in local politics and how the situation of women’s engagement in the public sphere is contributing to a change in Cambodia’s traditional gender regimes. I examine the challenges for and successes of women engaged in local politics in Cambodia through interviews and observation of four elected women commune council members. Cambodian’s political culture, beginning with the post-colonial period up until the present, has been guided by strong centralized leadership, predominantly vested in one individual. The women who entered the political system from the commune council elections of 2002 address a political philosophy of inclusiveness and cooperation. The guiding organizational philosophy of inclusiveness and cooperation is also evident in other women centered organizations that have sprung up in Cambodia since the early 1990s. My research looks at how women’s role in society began to change during the Khmer Rouge years, 1975 to 1979, and has continued to transform, for some a matter of necessity, while for others a matter of choice.

  • Elections and Emerging Citizenship in Cambodia
    chapter 4 Elections and Emerging Citizenship in Cambodia Astrid Norén-Nilsson At an informal lunch in the company of Cambodian friends in Phnom Penh, our host Sambath surprised us by showing a video of opposition leader Sam Rainsy’s return to the Cambodian capital a few days earlier. After four years in self-imposed exile, Sam Rainsy had returned only nine days ahead of the July 2013 national elections, as president of the newly formed Cambodia National Rescue Party (cnrp). The video documented the fervour of the w elcome offered by a sea of supporters, lining the streets from Pochentong Airport across the city to the so-called Freedom Park, the designated spot for dem- onstrations. What surprised our lunch company was not the (now familiar) images themselves, but rather that the video was being shown at the home of a security guard at Phnom Penh’s O’Russey market. The guard, who was of- ficially required to be a member of the incumbent Cambodian People’s Party (cpp) and had the task of monitoring the political allegiance of market ven- dors, had decided to purchase the dvd from one of these vendors regardless, seemingly betraying his political masters. In this chapter, I will reflect on what the security guard’s actions may imply about changing notions of citizenship in contemporary Cambodia. The national elections held on 28 July 2013 were Cambodia’s fifth since the reintroduction of a multiparty democratic system, prepared for by the 1991 Paris Peace Agreements (ppa). The Cambodian People’s Party (cpp) and its precursor, the Kampuchean People’s Revolutionary Party (kprp), have domi- nated Cambodian politics ever since 1979, from a one-party socialist repub- lic through to the transition to today’s multiparty liberal democratic state of the Kingdom of Cambodia (koc, 1993–).

  • Cambodia: Rule of Law Ignored As Cambodia Prepares for Polls
    News Service 142/98 AI INDEX: ASA 23/19/98 EMBARGOED FOR 0001 GMT FRIDAY 24 JULY 1998 Cambodia: Rule of law ignored as Cambodia prepares for polls PHNOM PENH -- On the last day of campaigning before the 26 July elections in Cambodia, Amnesty International representatives in the country today condemned the ongoing violence and intimidation. Operating in a climate of institutionalized impunity, members of the security forces controlled by the ruling Cambodian People’s Party (CPP) are able to commit human rights violations without fear of being brought to justice. Lack of concrete action by the state is compounded by near silence from the international community on cases of concern, thus perpetuating the cycle of violence, the representatives said. “The human rights situation in Cambodia has become so twisted that victims are blamed for their suffering, and investigators are condemned for their efforts to protect the victims,” an Amnesty International spokesperson said. “Much of the international community plays down the level of violence, sanitises the trauma of victims and ignores the impact of human rights violations on freedom of association and expression.” “Activists have been intimidated, politicians have been threatened, party agents have been shot and killed, and prisoners have been illegally arrested and badly beaten by policemen while held in detention.” The majority of the victims are associated with the two major opposition parties, FUNCINPEC and the Sam Rainsy Party. On 22 July, Amnesty International delegates located Danh Teav, a FUNCINPEC Ministry of Interior employee who had been arrested without a warrant in the evening of 20 July and held in incommunicado detention by the Phnom Penh Criminal Police.

  • UN Representation Disputes: a Case Study of Cambodia and a New Accreditation Proposal for the Twenty-First Century
    UN Representation Disputes: A Case Study of Cambodia and a New Accreditation Proposal for the Twenty-First Century Suellen Ratlifft The United Nations approves and accepts the representatives of its member states through a procedural accreditationprocess involving its Credentials Committee and the General Assembly. In 'most cases, the CredentialsCommittee verifies that the representative'scredentials are in order and the GeneralAssembly approves the representative as a matter of course. Complications arise, however, when a member state experiences an internal dispute resulting in rival governments that each indicate their intent to represent the member state in the UN. Faced with multiple sets of credentialsfor a single member state, the Credentials Committee and the GeneralAssembly must choose which government will represent the mem- ber state. Though the GeneralAssembly addressed the resolutionof repre- sentation disputes almost fifty years ago, it failed to adopt sufficiently structured guidelines to achieve a consistent process for resolving these disputes. As a result, member states within the CredentialsCommittee and the GeneralAssembly may manipulate the process by applying completely different guidelines to each representation dispute. Such manipulations may further the political interests of individual member states, but they also may harm the UN's integrity by seating representativeswho do not truly representthe interests of the member state'spopulation.
