Anbar awakening / Long, Austin   Journal Article
Long, Austin Journal Article

Publication 2008.
Summary/Abstract The United States and it allies in Iraq have embraced a tribal strategy to provide security and fight al-Qaeda in Mesopotamia. This approach is not new. Saddam Hussein also sought to use tribal alliances to provide internal security. His experience, and that of the present-day Coalition, demonstrates the prospects and perils of using tribes to provide security. Tension exists between the United States' two main strategic goals of defeating al-Qaeda in Mesopotamia and building a democratic, unified Iraq. There is also the danger that Iraqi tribes will defect from the Coalition in future

Aquino administration’s 2011 decision to shift Philippine defense policy from internal security to territorial defense: the impact of the South China sea dispute / Castro, Renato Cruz De   Journal Article
Castro, Renato Cruz De Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract This article examines how the South China Sea dispute impacts on the Aquino administration's 2011 decision to shift the focus of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) from internal security to territorial defense. Upon assuming office in 2010, President Benigno Aquino announced his intention to modernize the AFP, to buttress the country's territorial defense, and to check China's aggressive assertion of its sovereignty over the South China Sea. However, the lack of financial support from the Philippine Congress prevented the immediate implementation of the plan. The March 2, 2011 incident between a Philippine survey ship and two Chinese patrol boats at Reed Bank, however, prompted the Aquino administration to redirect the country's security focus. The incident also triggered a strong clamor from the military and other government institutions for the allocation of resources to the development of the AFP's territorial defense capabilities. China's heavy-handed behavior in the South China Sea, as well as its uncompromising diplomatic posturing, further convinced the Aquino administration of the inevitability of facing China militarily in the near future. Coincidentally, the United States supports the Philippines' shift to territorial/maritime defense and pledges to provide its ally with affordable military hardware. In conclusion, the article observes that the convergence of strategic and diplomatic events-an offshoot of the March 2 Reed Bank incident-finally made the Aquino administration and the AFP take the first step in the long and arduous process of building a modest military capability for territorial defense.

0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract This article attempts to locate and assess the sources of India's land warfare doctrines and capabilities. It begins by briefly examining the Indian army's significant combat experience in dealing with the external and internal security threats during the past six decades. The first section analyzes the security challenges and threats that presently drive the evolution of India's land war-fighting doctrines and capabilities. The next section explains the military imperatives that are driving this doctrinal change. In the next section, the current status of India's land war-fighting capabilities is discussed. The subsequent section examines the institutional limitations that inhibit organizational change, and the final section highlights how these doctrinal and capability gaps might be addressed in the future.

Audience costs among the British public: the impact of escalation, crisis type, and prime ministerial rhetoric / Davies, Graeme A. M; Johns, Robert   Journal Article
Johns, Robert Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract This article reports on an audience costs experiment embedded into a survey of the British public (N = 2235). We extend previous research into audience costs in three main directions. First, we provide clear and direct evidence that they exist for a second-order democratic power, the United Kingdom. Second, we show that the extent of audience costs varies, and at times substantially, along with features of the crisis situation that have not been examined empirically in this context before. In particular, the type of crisis strongly influences public reactions both to bluffing in general and to the wisdom or otherwise of escalating crises before backing down. While audience costs do appear to exist for a UK Prime Minister, he or she cannot inflate them by moving up the escalation chain. Rather, a limited use of force tends to mitigate these costs among the British public because it appears to them a more consistent strategy. Third, we show that public disapproval of a failed bluffing strategy is stronger among the more politically engaged, increasing the likelihood that audience costs will be paid at the ballot box.

Autonomy and stability: the perils of implementation and "divide-and-rule" tactics in Papua, Indonesia / Bertrand, Jacques   Journal Article
Bertrand, Jacques Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract Autonomy is often seen as an institutional instrument to manage substate nationalist conflict. Its implementation is key in determining its impact on conflict. While the central state might be satisfied with the absence of violence and stability as a measure of success, an aggrieved group will view success as gaining new powers and new resources. Autonomy often unravels when different goals are being pursued during implementation. "Special autonomy" in Papua failed because, first, the law was not the product of negotiation but of a solution that the central government imposed; second, Papuans remained divided on its utility and, ultimately, failed to seize the opportunity provided; third, the central government undermined the law in its attempts to curb secessionism, ultimately failing to make it credible.

Belgrade, Pale, Knin: Kin-state Control over rebellious puppets / Caspersen, Nina   Journal Article
Caspersen, Nina Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2007.
Summary/Abstract The importance of kin-state involvement in ethnic conflicts and wars is often recognised in the literature, yet little theorising exists. This article analyses the links between the Serbian regime and the Serb leaders in Croatia and Bosnia during the Yugoslav war. Contrary to widespread assumptions, it finds that Slobodan Milosevic was not always able to control local developments; the local Serb leaders became increasingly rebellious and possessed means for limiting Belgrade's influence. Instead of assuming static ethnic solidarities, the analysis focuses on intra-ethnic divisions and the supply of resources and is thereby able to capture the fluidity of kin-state relations and the potentially limited longevity of such ties. It shows that links between a kin-state and its ethnic brethren may be weakened despite the existence of extreme insecurity

Blurring border between the police and the military: a debate without foundations / Weiss, Tomas   Journal Article
Weiss, Tomas Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract This review article reviews the current 'state of the art' and literature on the role of the police and military within the changing nature of internal and external security. Some scholars believe that the border between these two forces has recently begun to blur, whereas others strongly disagree. This article argues that the current debate lacks comprehensiveness and conceptual underpinning. It is suggested that definitional differences between the two forces should serve as the basis for detailed and comprehensive future case studies.

Boko Haram insurgency in Northern Nigeria and the vicious cycle / Osumah, Oarhe   Journal Article
Osumah, Oarhe Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract The phenomenon of the Boko Haram insurgency in Northern Nigeria has generated many security concerns. This article explores the implications of the Boko Haram insurgency in Northern Nigeria for internal security. The article, which relies on a study of secondary sources of data, reveals that the insurgency has spawned varied implications such as an international image crisis, huge economic losses, a health and humanitarian crisis, a huge burden on the security apparatuses, arms proliferation, and endangered national unity. It holds that the insurgency is essentially interlinked with a breakdown of the social contract manifested in opportunistic behavior, economic stagnation, and lack of functioning institutional mechanisms for policy conduct and conflict resolution. Owing to the security menace posed by the insurgency, the article recommends that the root causes of the insurgency should be tackled rather than relying on reactive measures that cannot guarantee enduring peace and internal security.
