Liebl, Vernie Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract This article consists of selected translations from captured interviews and dairies of Al Qaida members. The time period covered is from mid-2001 to early 2002 and concerns their operations in Afghanistan. The material clearly conveys a range of emotion, from confident to despondent, as well as efforts to contest the US actions. The first several pages give the reader context and some possible "lessons learned," but the story(ies) are best told by the Al Qaida members themselves. All names are pseudonyms.

Effect of judges’ gender on rape sentencing : a data mining approach to analyze judgment documents / Xia, Yiwei ; Zhong, Hua ; Cai, Tianji   Journal Article
Yiwei Xia, Tianji Cai, and Hua Zhong Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract is study took advantage of newly released court sentencing documents to evaluate the eect of judges’ gender on juridical decision making in China. More specically, it focused on whether the gender of judges and gender composition of a collegiate bench exert effects on sentencing outcomes after controlling for legal circumstances. All rape sentences issued from 2012 to 2015 and uploaded to China Judgements Online (CJO) were retrieved. Each judge’s gender was estimated using the naive Bayesian classier. To compensate for possible misclassications of gender and the gender composition of a collegiate bench, a measurement error model (MC-SIMEX) was implemented for both count (length of sentence in months) and binary (whether the defendant received probation) outcomes. Although our results reveal no consistent differences in sentencing outcomes between male and female judges, we found femaledominated collegiate benches to be associated with shorter sentences. is article not only furthers scholarly knowledge of the role a judge’s gender plays in the juridical process in China, but provides analysts with an eective way of applying text-mining techniques to social science research.

History of a pow camp / Dubina, A   Journal Article
Dubina, A Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract A LOT IS KNOWN about the Great Patriotic War. However, its history is still being written as new documents are emerging from declassified archives, as well as the memoirs of its participants. There is a certain gap between classic academic research involving thoroughly checked facts, verifications, assessments, and evaluations, on the one hand, and naturally emotional publications (memoirs) devoted to specific events and written by war veterans, on the other. One such work is a book by Vasily Ivanovich Kolotusha, a well-known diplomat, Arabic studies expert, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary, entitled "Detention Camp Unknown... Place of Burial, Wlodomierz."

How can documents speak about practices? practice tracing, the Wikileaks cables, and diplomatic culture / Cornut, Jeremie; Zamaroczy, Nicolas de   Journal Article
Cornut, Jeremie Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Practice theorists favor interviews and participant observations in their study. Using insights from anthropological works on bureaucratic texts, in this article we develop methodological tools to complement these interpretive methods of data collection. We suggest a way to trace practices by systematically looking through both the content of documents and their form. We probe this approach with an analysis of 408 diplomatic cables sent by the US Embassy in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania in 2005–2009 and subsequently released by Wikileaks. We draw on these documents to tell two related stories about diplomatic practices: the first about epistemic practices and how the cables privilege certain voices and types of knowledge over others, and the second about diplomatic culture, where the cables serve as evidence of the powerful socialization processes that diplomats are subject to. This contributes to International Relations (IR) with a new approach for systematically analyzing written documents to uncover international practices.

Population Meets Database: Aligning Personal, Documentary and Digital Identity in Aadhaar-Enabled India / Rao, Ursula   Journal Article
Rao, Ursula Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract This article traces the processes of making identities in digital India. By zooming into the two processes of enrolling in and using Aadhaar, it questions the distinction between identification and identity that pervades discussions of new technologies and shows that all Aadhaar-related procedures are productive of identity as a socially mediated process of creating or denying the condition for belonging. Following the introduction of Aadhaar, becoming a rights-bearing individual, for the most part, involves stitching together three types of identities: (1) a digital signature with (2) documentary proof of identity, both of which are based on (3) personal recognition. Aadhaar, then, does not change the ground on which official identity routines are built, but it alters the technical terrain people must navigate to become rights-bearing citizens. It adds a new layer of procedures on top of older techniques of recognition by insisting that persons must always be seen as unique individuals alongside being recognised as people holding a specific status.

Researching Silence: a methodological inquiry / Schweiger, Elisabeth ; Tomiak, Kerstin   Journal Article
Elisabeth Schweiger Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The role of silence has received increasing attention in International Relations, ranging from silence as exclusion to secrecy and performance. Yet, there has been little effort to draw together a more practical, methodological inquiry into silence and how to engage with it in the research processes. This article builds on existing studies on silence and our own research experiences in conducting interviews and text analysis to interrogate the role silence plays in the research process. It aims to develop methodological tools for engaging with silence and offers a practical guide to analysing it from the data generation stage to the interpretation of silence. In doing so, it also contributes to attempts to redefine the meaning of silence in International Relations by including silence as more than an absence.

Special Document File: the erasure of the nakba i Israel's archives / Anziska, Seth   Journal Article
Anziska, Seth Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract A 2019 investigation by the Israeli NGO Akevot and Haaretz newspaper has uncovered official suppression of crucial documents about the Nakba in Israeli archives. The Journal of Palestine Studies is publishing print excerpts and a full online version of the buried “migration report,” which details Israel's depopulation of Palestinian villages in the first six months of the 1948 war, a document that clearly undermines official Israeli state narratives about the course of events. In methodical fashion, this report provides contemporaneous documentation of Israeli culpability in the expulsion of Palestinians from their homes and the systematic depopulation of so-called Arab villages in the first six months of the war. Alongside a discussion of key revelations in the newly available document, this introduction situates the broader pattern of erasure within historiographical debates over 1948 and questions of archival access. It examines how accounts of Israel's birth and Palestinian statelessness have been crafted in relation to the underlying question: who has permission to narrate the past?
