The attacks were the worst act of violence to hit the country in the decade since the end of a bloody civil war that killed up to 100,000 people. For many in Sri Lanka, the appar- ently coordinated attacks brought back painful memo- ries of life during the long-running conflict, when bomb blasts were a frequent occurrence. There was no immediate claim of responsibility but the government said eight people had been arrested and investigators would look into whether the attackers had “overseas links”. The government also imposed a nationwide curfew and curbed social media access to restrict “wrong information” spreading in the country of 21 million people. The powerful blasts - six in quick succession and then two more hours later - injured hundreds. At least two of them involved suicide bombers, including one who lined up at a hotel break- fast buffet before unleashing carnage. HH the Amir of Kuwait Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al- Jaber Al-Sabah sent a cable yesterday to Sri Lankan President Maithripala Sirisena, expressing deepest condolences over the attacks.

  • Highlighting Afghan Women's Subjectivities During Uncertainties
    An Affective Reading of Fear in the Period of Peace Process with the Taliban: Highlighting Afghan Women’s Subjectivities During Uncertainties By Mubareka Sahar Fetrat Submitted to Central European University Department of Gender Studies In partial fulfillment of the degree of Master of Arts in Critical Gender Studies. Supervisor: Hadley Zaun Renkin Second reader: Francisca De Haan CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2020 Dedicated to the three significant losses of my life, Nafisa and Sayed Mir Aqha, my parents, Jamshid Zafar, my best friend May you rest in power and pride. CEU eTD Collection i Abstract The USA’s sudden decision of complete military withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2018 and its decision to force peace between the Taliban and Afghan government created questions, uncertainties, and fears. These fears have been particularly apparent among women, specifically among the women in Kabul and the bigger cities who have fought for and gained more space and platforms during the years since the Taliban’s regime (1996-2001). This thesis discusses these uncertainties, fears, and emotions as they happen. I aim to highlight a particularly salient aspect of this period by focusing on Afghan women’s subjectivities and leadership amid a situation of constant fear and uncertainties. To do that, I have been reflecting on my insider/outsider positionality and the possibilities and constraints it has created. As a feminist from Kabul, I have stayed in contact with organizations and individuals in Kabul, which kept me aware of women’s actions, mobilizations, dynamics during the ongoing peace process period, although I was physically away.
