Effective engagement: the European Union, liberal theory and the Aceh peace processKeizer, Kornelis Bote January 2008 (has links)
Peace has finally come to Aceh. The Indonesian province has suffered for over 30 years through conflict with the Indonesian army. Instrumental in having achieved this peaceful outcome has been the role of the European Union (EU). Its crucial monitoring role and long term commitment had a profound impact on the province, helping to end the hostilities and to rebuild Aceh. The EU-led Aceh Monitoring Mission (AMM) is the central feature of this thesis.
Like Aceh, Europe has experienced wars. However, since the beginnings of Western
European institution building, peace and cooperation in the region transpired. This phenomenon has spread across the continent. The progressive structure enabled the EU to flourish as a cooperative institution, especially in the aftermath of the Cold War
east-west division. This period also gave the EU an opportunity to expand its peaceful legacy by exporting its values abroad. The development of the EU's external capability to deliver such aspirations is a central part of this thesis.
The thesis seeks to draw a connection with the EU's quest to bring peace to Aceh with international relations (IR) theory. As such, it assesses the EU's motives and interests in the Aceh peace process to discover what they were based on.
After assessing both realist and liberalist IR viewpoints, the thesis’ central findings confirm the liberal motives of the EU. The EU has predominantly acted in the interests of Aceh. It helped bring many liberal based values to the province and
experienced constructive relations with Indonesia and other powers in the region. Whilst realist orientated
EU power motives are outlined, the EU's liberal agenda based on mediation, peace and security, multilateralism, democracy and human rights - as core liberal elements - are more convincing explanations as this thesis argues.

Examining Mediation Onset in Recurring ConflictsTerhaag, Wera January 2021 (has links)
After the Cold War, mediation as an armed conflict resolution process was thought to become an increasingly common tool to address even the most complex armed conflicts. Recurring conflicts especially should be the focus of mediation. However, with regards to armed conflicts that reoccur, there is a gap in the research of mediation in relation to the rounds of violence. This thesis argues that the more rounds of violence a recurring armed conflict experiences the less likely it will experience mediation. To examine the relationship between the rounds of violence of a recurring armed conflict and mediation onset, this thesis employed Structured Focused Comparison (SFC) to compare two recurring armed conflicts. One with a low mediation occurrence (West Papua) and one high mediation occurrence (Aceh). While the case comparison provides limited support for the hypothesized relationship between rounds of violence and mediation, the results instead may provide support that recurring armed conflicts are not increasingly resistant to mediation the more rounds of violence they experience.

Separatistický konflikt: komparativní studie Srí Lanky a Ačehu, Indonésie / Separatist conflict: comparative study of Sri Lanka and Aceh, IndonesiaBartošová, Kateřina January 2014 (has links)
The aim of the master thesis is to determine factors that contribute to peace settlement of separatist conflicts. It compares two separatist conflicts with different forms of termination. The Indonesian government signed a peace agreement with separatists in province of Aceh and offered them greater autonomy, whereas the government of Sri Lanka decided on military suppression of Tamil separatists. The analysis of the conflicts is based on six factors that are built on the study of Barbara Walter about the concept of reputation building. According to the concept, governments are less likely to go for peace settlement when facing more imperilling separatist groups, seeing that governments have to invest in reputation building. The comparative case study is based on following factors: potential future separatists, value of land currently under dispute, proportion of total population and territory, balance of power between separatists and government, political system with focus on democracy, degree of centralization/ federalism. The evidence seems to be strong that the theory of reputation building does not apply to selected cases because the peace settlement was achieved in Indonesia which has far more potential separatist groups than Sri Lanka. In conclusion, the thesis identifies following factors...

Cooking Peace? : Authoritative mediators' formulation in the Aceh conflict 2004-2005 and the Kosovo conflict 2005-2007von Schmettow, Jan January 2021 (has links)
Many mediators exercise power across borders, facilitating talks, formulating agendas and manipulating interests of hostile parties. However, the problem of how mediators justify their use of power and how the terms of this justification legitimate mediators’ strategic conduct has not been systematically theorized and tested in the leverage literature yet. A configurational theory can provide varied combinations of mediator authority types and strategy. Two types, legal-rational authority and expert authority, will be conceptualized in relation to formulation strategy. The theory hypothesizes that an authoritative mediator’s acceptable formulation suppresses strategic bargaining and nurtures principled bargaining, propitious for agenda-based mediation success. The theory will be tested by an empirical puzzle. UN mediation on Kosovo (2005-2007) and NGO mediation on Aceh (2004-2005) have both been conducted by a directive approach but negotiations failed in the former case and succeeded in the latter. While the general co-variation supports the hypothesis from authoritative formulation, tracing the causal mechanism reveals that the theory cannot explain agenda-based mediation success in Aceh. Among other questions, a new puzzle suggests the viability of mediators’ varied speech acts as a fruitful research problem.

Pobídky jako cesta k míru? Vyjednávání a zapojení třetích stran / Using Carrots to Bring Peace? Negotiation and Third Party InvolvementKlimešová, Martina January 2011 (has links)
Title: Using Carrots to Bring Peace? Negotiation and Third Party Involvement Author: Martina Klimesova 284 p. (+references and appendices) March 2011 How to make peace? This dissertation answers what impact third party incentives have on peace negotiation, more specifically on negotiation strategies in internal armed conflicts based on self-determination grievances. This study further assesses when the ripest time for the employment of incentives is, and in what way external incentives have an impact on possible negotiation asymmetries. Incentives in the following negotiation processes were analyzed: GoSL-LTTE in Sri Lanka (Eelam, 2002-03; 2006), GoI-GAM in Indonesia (Aceh, 2000-03; 2005), and the GRP-MILF in the Philippines (Mindanao, 2001-08). The findings indicate that those third party incentives which are linked to the core conflict issues are most likely to have some impact on the negotiation, but that committed pro-process leadership by the conflicting parties is also a necessity. The research also indicated that third parties have only limited options in employing incentives that can have an impact on the core conflict issues; and that, in any case, they are rarely willing to pursue such options. Committed strong leadership, presence of ripeness (far more frequently stipulated by an MHS than MEO),...

EU Actorness with and within Southeast Asia in light of Non-traditional Security ChallengesMaier-Knapp, Naila January 2013 (has links)
Nearly four decades of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN)-European Union (EU) relationship have witnessed the importance of ideas and identity alongside the economic interests in shaping the behaviour of the two sides. The study takes interest in understanding the EU’s actorness and the EU as a normative actor with and within Southeast Asia through a reflectivist lens. The thesis is an attempt to provide a new perspective on a relationship commonly assessed from an economic angle. It outlines the opportunity of non-traditional security (NTS) challenges to enhance EU actorness and normative influence in Southeast Asia.
Against this backdrop, the study explores the dialogue and cooperative initiatives of two regions, which attach relatively little salience to each other. The study employs a NTS lens and draws upon the case of the Asian Financial Crisis of 1997-98, the haze in relation to forest governance, the Bali bombings of 2002 and the political conflict in Aceh. The study assumes that these NTS issues can stimulate processes of threat convergence as well as threat ‘othering’. It argues that these processes enhance European engagement in Southeast Asia and contribute to shaping regional stability in Southeast Asia. Furthermore, NTS crises present situations, where norms can become unstable, contested and substituted. This allows us to better examine the EU as a normative actor.
To establish an understanding of the EU’s actorness and the EU as a normative actor, the empirical evidence will focus on the threat perceptions, motivations of action and activities of the EU and its member states. For the purpose of differentiating the EU as a normative actor, the study will also include the discussion of the normative objectives and behaviours of the EU and its member states and apply a reflectivist theoretical framework.
Hypothetically, NTS crises trigger external assistance and normative influence and thus, they offer an opportunity to establish a more nuanced picture of the EU in the region. At the same time, the study acknowledges that there are a variety of constraints and variables that complicate the EU’s actorness. The thesis seeks to identify and discuss these. So far, scholarly publications have failed to apply the NTS perspective systematically. This thesis provides the first monograph-length treatment of the EU in Southeast Asia through a NTS and reflectivist lens.

[pt] AS ORGANIZAÇÕES NÃO-GOVERNAMENTAIS NA MEDIAÇÃO INTERNACIONAL: VANTAGENS E LIMITAÇÕES / [en] NO-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATION IN INTERNATIONAL MEDIATION: ADVANTAGES AND LIMITATIONS26 November 2021 (has links)
[pt] A mediação internacional transformou-se nas últimas décadas devido a
dois fatores: as mudanças nas características do conflito armado; e a entrada de
novos atores. Os conflitos modificaram-se significativamente após o fim da
Guerra Fria, apesar de já ser possível encontrar sinais destas transformações desde
a década de 70. A entrada de novos atores, dos quais se destacam principalmente
organizações não-governamentais (ONGs), foi uma resposta a essas novas
necessitadas do conflito, a modificações na relação dos Estados com as ONGs e
destas no campo da resolução de conflitos. As ONGs proporcionaram novas
possibilidades à mediação internacional, abrindo o leque de possíveis soluções aos
conflitos, por conseguirem atingir todos os níveis sociais durante o processo de
resolução. As ONGs possibilitaram com que a mediação envolva toda a sociedade
e desenvolva-se um longo processo de reconciliação. No entanto, como todo o
mediador elas possuem vantagens e limitações que devem ser consideradas no
momento da mediação. Além disso, é necessário ressaltar que a mediação pode
envolver mais de um ator ou até mesmo mais de de um tipo de ator, desde que a
ação deles seja coordenada. Objetivando analisar isto esta dissertação utilizará de
três casos de estudo: Moçambique, Aceh e Burundi e as suas mediações. / [en] International mediation has been transformed over the last decades,
primarily through two factors: the changed characteristics of armed conflict and
the emergence of new actors. Conflicts were significantly modified after the Cold
War, but races of these transformations can be found as early as the 1970s. The
entry of new actors, principally Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), was a
response to the exigencies of new conflict situations, and was due to the
modification of the relationship between states and NGOs in the resolution of
conflicts. Given this situation, this thesis analyzes the advantages and limitations
of NGOs as international mediators, focusing on their role in three major
conflicts: Mozambique, Aceh and Burundi.
