Arab league and military operations: prospects and challenges in Syria / Vanhullebusch, Matthias   Article
Vanhullebusch, Matthias Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The humanitarian crisis in Syria has triggered diverse questions on the role of the international community and regional actors – in particular the Arab League – to assume their responsibility in matters of peace and security. Military interventions in past conflicts show proof that the Arab League has the military and doctrinal capacity to justify and accommodate their deployment in its member states and to contribute to international peace and security as envisaged under the UN Charter. A blueprint on future operationalization of military operations under its flag examines the relevant laws which they have to respect.

Biopolitical and disciplinary peacebuilding: sport, reforming bodies and rebuilding societies / Zanotti, Laura; Stephenson, Max ; Schnitzer, Marcy   Article
Zanotti, Laura Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The peacebuilding political rationality established in the first years of the current century broadened the target of such efforts from state institutions to populations and adopted an array of disciplinary and biopolitical techniques aimed at changing individuals and the ways they live together. This article explores international organization discourses on sport and peacebuilding and argues that the broad consensus on sport as a peacebuilding strategy is most fruitfully explored in light of the intensification of the biopolitical and disciplinary trajectories of the liberal peace.

Conceptualizing resistance in post-conflict environments / Young, Graeme William   Article
Young, Graeme William Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract While recent efforts to analyse resistance to post-conflict interventions have led to important insights into the nature of contemporary peacebuilding efforts, their failure to adequately problematize the concept of resistance itself and to adapt it to the specific realities of post-conflict neoliberalism has proven to be problematic. This article explores the internal tensions and inconsistencies that define the concept of resistance in post-conflict environments, focusing specifically on five topics: the interaction of structure and agency; the presence of intent; the role of power; the nature of markets; and the possibility of emancipation. Key problems are highlighted, and, where possible, potential solutions are proposed. The issues raised by this article demand immediate attention if the conceptual viability and analytical value of resistance are to be maintained in post-conflict contexts.
