A State in Limbo: Afghanistan, Warlords and International

▼ This thesis examines approaches taken towards warlords
and militias during the current U.S.-led intervention in
Afghanistan and that of the Soviet/Najibullah period analysing
their impact on key state formation dynamics and state-building
efforts. Through a combination of qualitative and quantitative
analysis, the study finds that while the current intervention has
seen its warlord and militia strategies produce generally negative
results, the past Soviet intervention can arguably claim some
partial successes. Though these partial successes provided an “exit
strategy”, they did not aid in the state-building efforts or regime
stabilization goals that had been Moscow’s initial and primary
goals. The study also point to the problematic omission of actors
and social groupings, such as warlords and militias, in
state-building theory, and shows how security goals as typically
addressed in state-building need not be synonymous or conducive to
the primitive accumulation of force that spurred dependency
relationships in past state formation.

▼ The Commonwealth has a history of crises: 1949, 1965,
the 1970s through the 80s, 1991 and 2009. Each of these points will
be examined: their historical context, the challenges and changes,
and the actions it took to meet these challenges. Analysis of these
points indicates that the Commonwealth is a reactive and adaptive
organization that is affected by, and strives to affect, world
events; that it is shaped and influenced by its members, and that
crises have resulted in the Commonwealth re-focusing and revising
itself. The primary suggestions are that the Commonwealth generate
a culture of constant revision, while simultaneously focusing its
principles and values. It may also adopt better forecasting
measures as organizational theory suggests, so that it can remain
an agile organization. The dissertation will also compare the OIF,
the CPLP and the OEI and will draw forth lessons that these
organizations can learn from the Commonwealth’s history of
crisis.

▼ The growth and prevalence of the private military
industry has led many to conclude that the state has outsourced one
of its core functions: public security. As a global non-state
actor, PMSCs pose a risk to state sovereignty by undermining the
democratic legitimacy of armed forces and challenging the states
international monopoly over force. This study, using the tripartite
model in English school theory, refutes this commonly held belief
by examining the regulatory methods that have brought PMSCs
squarely under state control. This study organizes regulatory
efforts in a three level concept of national, international and
self-regulatory methods, and based on the increased national
regulatory methods, mixed with international norms and weak
self-regulation, concludes that states maintain their primacy over
violence in world politics.

▼ This study looks at the linkages between incorporation
models and public opinion. The intention of the study is to
determine if a state’s incorporation model shapes public opinion or
if public opinion shapes the incorporation model. Using Canada,
France, and Great Britain as case studies, I explore the question
of policy responsiveness to shifts in public opinion, as influenced
by immigration, security, and economic concerns. By examining
comparative polling data, major events timelines, and single state
polling information, I determine that both incorporation models and
public opinion have largely been stable over the past decade in
Canada and France. In contrast, shifting public opinion in Great
Britain has resulted in major changes to the incorporation model in
place and relations between state and society. This suggests that
there are major differences between the three states in the ways in
which public opinion is incorporated into the decision- and
policy-making process.

▼ The concept of Humanitarian Military Interventions has
become a core issue within the international community since the
1990s. Human rights violations carried out on a massive scale are
no longer perceived as purely domestic concerns but are now
recognized as a central concern of the international community.
This study of four cases of HMI -Somalia, Rwanda, Haiti and East
Timor- is intended to shed the light on two political factors that
play a determining role in HMI: the national interests of the
interveners and the level of neutrality of the operations. I argue
that the level of success of HMI is highly dependent on the
presence of national interests in the region for the interveners
and a low level of neutrality. This thesis also reflects on the
ongoing challenges facing the international community regarding the
most efficient ways to address massive human rights violations and
presents suggestions towards addressing them.

▼ The Rome Statute saw the provision of three statutory
rights for victims: the right to participation, protection, and
reparations. The addition of these rights is an attempt to
incorporate elements of restorative and reparative justice
processes into a primarily retributive system. The emerging
jurisprudence shows there are competing tensions developing in all
areas. The right to participation saw initially broad decisions
consistently scaled back by the Appeals Chamber to ensure a more
streamlined approach. The right to protection, in contrast, has
continued to be upheld by all Court levels resulting in significant
trial challenges and delays. While the right to reparations remains
untested, it is likely to only partially fulfill restorative aims.
This thesis argues that while victim involvement has altered the
traditional trial process, restorative aims will remain unmet.
However, victim involvement has begun to shed light on the
competing purposes of justice within the Rome Statute
framework.

Stephen Harper's India Policy: The Role and Influence of the
Indo-Canadian Diaspora.

▼ Ethnic interest organizations have not been considered
a salience influence on foreign policy. Traditionally, democratic
theory suggests foreign policy should be determined by the will of
the general population, rather that the limited and segregated
interests of minority groups. Specifically in Canadian foreign
policy, ethnic groups have also had limited access to
decision-makers because of increased centralization of Canadian
foreign policy. In contrast, the literature on Canada-India
relations suggests there is an important foreign policy impact by
the large, economically progressive Indo-Canadian Diaspora which
has actively attempted to improve relations between these states.
This dissertation addresses this obvious contrast, showing how the
community has overcome the challenges traditionally associated with
ethnic groups and foreign policy. Centrally, the research finds
that Indo-Canadians have been active and successful foreign policy
participants, influencing implementation, perceptions-editing and
direct foreign policy between the two countries. This is determined
by two characteristics: first, the Harper government’s decision to
actively improve economic relations with New Delhi has opened
important cess points for the Indo-Canadian community. Give their
intimate knowledge of India’s business and economic environment,
the Diaspora has been involved in various overseas missions,
consultations and networking between the Canadian government and
various stakeholders. Second, ethnic group influence is determined
by the community’s internal organization, including the composition
of their membership, financial resources and political strategies.
With these characteristics, the dissertation assesses three
interest organizations: the Indo-Canada Chamber of Commerce (ICCC),
the Canada-India Business Council (C-IBC) and the Canada-India
Foundation (CIF). By conducting a within-case analysis, it finds
that each organization has a niche role within Canada-India
relations – in Diaspora representation (ICCC), business and trade
relations (C-IBC) and policy-related advocacy (CIF). Centrally,
this dissertation speaks to the evolving relations between the
state and society in Canadian foreign policy. It offers a challenge
to earlier work in this field, resulting in theoretical,
methodological and policy-oriented advancement of a nascent body of
literature, suggesting avenues for further
investigation.

THE REPRESENTATION OF NATURE: AN ANALYSIS OF THE VIRTUAL

In this thesis, I provide an analysis of the representation within the environmental
movement that is based in critical theory. In considering the paradox which involves the
awareness of an ecological crisis as well as a strong resistance to the creation of
meaningful policy, I seek to root this problem in the representation of nature. This type of
representation is constrained by a virtual account that is based upon constitutive identity
and thus is sensitive to contextual perceptions of the discourse and depiction of the
concept of nature. My aim is to give a critical analysis of the environmental movement as
well as to explore the use of critical theory and contemporary art to enhance the approach
of virtual representation in order to challenge traditional notions of natural beauty that
can provide misleading accounts of the relationship between humanity and nature.

▼ On its own, Kosovo has neither come to where it is
today nor could it move any forward in the near future. The role of
the international community and especially that of the EU is
crucial in helping Kosovo overpass some of the current barriers and
become a truly European state, instead of just another state in
Europe. Therefore, from a state-building perspective, this paper
strives to shed some light on the process of state-building in
Kosovo and the role of the international involvement during this
past decade.

▼ The 4th Generation of Warfare, with its wars among the
people, confronts soldiers with complexities, challenges and
demands, which they are not adequately prepared for. We see this in
the increasing level of mental health issues and operational stress
injuries, and in the entrenchment and attrition of modern
operations that struggle to achieve strategic goals. Given this,
the training of soldiers needs to be adapted: mental and emotional
capacity needs to be built and maintained. The Shambhala Buddhist
tradition has developed a complete practice integrating meditation
and mindfulness awareness training with Western military culture
and forms, called the Dorje Kasung. Practices, principles,
techniques, and insights, from this and other Eastern military
traditions can be adapted and applied to the Canadian Forces.
Answering a need to enhance, reinforce, and develop the
understanding and embodiment of the military ethos and
professionalism of CF members throughout their
career.

▼ The author examines Provincial Reconstruction Teams
(PRTs) as a face, or tool, of foreign policy used by governments.
PRTs are unique organizations that have been created to
specifically satisfy the security and development requirements of
failed or fragile states and in the context of this study,
specifically Afghanistan. The essential questions are: how do PRTs
meet the objectives for which they were organized and how effective
are they at the job? This study seeks to answer these questions and
to determine the motives for this type of international involvement
from the perspective of contributing states that form the 26 PRTs
that are part of the NATO/ISAF organization. This crisis has
presented new challenges to governments at home as they attempt to
design and field a group of military and civilians that are
equipped and trained to meet the demands placed upon them for
security and development in Afghanistan.

▼ Why did the people of New Brunswick fail to accept the
agreement between the governments of New Brunswick and Québec to
sell NB Power to Hydro-Québec? This research seeks to answer that
question by examining the arguments both for and against the
proposed sale of NB Power using historical institutionalism. It
determines that NB Power is on two concurrent paths that are
linked, yet distinct. This research then determines that the
agreement to sell NB Power was a critical juncture that failed,
since it was never finalized, but succeeded in creating a new
momentum for change in New Brunswick.

▼ The European Union expanded from its first
conceptualization as an economic union hedging possible German
expansion to encompass policy areas traditionally controlled by the
state. One of these areas—immigration and asylum—is closely
associated with ideas of state identity and citizenship, and is an
area in which states have been unwilling to cede control. Two
member states—Italy and Spain—have many similarities, one of which
is significant issues in regard to large and undocumented migration
but, despite that, took quite different policy directions vis-à-vis
the EU’s proposed immigration and asylum norms. This research
examines Italy and Spain using Knill and Lehmkuhl’s mechanisms of
Europeanization during three policymaking timeframes in order to
determine how and why these states have taken divergent paths. This
thesis found that different mechanisms were used during different
periods and that counterintuitive to expected findings, the weakest
mechanism is dominant during the current era.

▼ The policy of National Unity and Reconciliation in
Rwanda has been the subject of much heated debate in recent years,
prompted by the uncovering of repressive techniques of the current
government. As the policy is designed to enhance the legitimacy of
this government, the national rhetoric must be compared to its
actions where reconciliation is concerned. Instead of promoting
national unity and reconciliation, this thesis will show that the
government actively obstructs Rwandan interpersonal reconciliation
through the denial of acceptance and empowerment. The analysis is
informed by the psychological needs-based model of reconciliation,
bringing in aspects of psychological theory into a field largely
dominated by law and political science.

(more)
▼ With new medical advances in technology, there has
been a push from the legal, medical and political communities to
re-examine the policies of end-of-life-care. End-of-life-care
(EOLC) is a term that refers to not only a patient’s final hours of
life, but also the medical care of individuals with terminal
illnesses or conditions that have become advanced and incurable.
For the purpose of this paper, I will be referring to
physician-assisted death and active euthanasia as forms of
end-of-care. The Politics of End-of –Life-Care: Active Euthanasia
and Physician-assisted Death examines the political disjuncture
between the evidence presented in favour of active euthanasia (AE),
physician-assisted death (PAD) and the current practice of refusing
to grant AE and PAD legal status in Canada. It will examine the
political dynamics underlying the disjuncture using political
pressure groups, constructivism, rational choice, institutionalism
and structuralism. There is empirical evidence that demonstrates
support for the legalization of AE and PAD. Sixty-seven percent of
Canadians support AE /PAD and 80 percent support allowing
physicians to assist in AE and PAD (Angus Reid 2012) however,
Parliament has not legalized AE/PAD and the CMA has not sanctioned
AE /PAD. The two sides of the debate have clearly communicated
their arguments. The arguments on each side are strong and have
merit. Conversely, the arguments against AE and PAD appear to hold
more weight with institutions than with the public. This thesis
examines a number of different reasons for why AE/PAD remains
illegal in Canada despite society’s widespread support for AE/PAD.
The results of the research found no one method explains the
disjuncture between the evidence presented in favour of active
euthanasia and the current practice of refusing to grant it legal
status. However, discursive institutionalism does help elites to
generate and communicate the discourse of AE and PAD. It also
explains how discourse can also occur from the bottom which results
in a new discourse. For example, physicians, politicians, and the
public who have deviated from the accepted discourse on AE and PAD
can help to create a new discourse regarding AE and PAD
policies.

▼ The following project is an examination of Canadian
foreign and defence policy. Specifically, it is argued that growing
trends in Canadian foreign policy necessitate a theoretical
framework that is able to accurately examine the variables that
factor into the decision making process, both domestically and
internationally. A combination of both neoclassical realism and
constructivism make this possible, as it is crucial to understand
how power and ideas intersect when conducting foreign policy. In
order to test this framework, the Canadian involvement in the 2011
intervention in Libya led by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization
is examined. The case study examines the international, domestic,
and ideational factors which led to Canadas enthusiastic response
to the opportunity to become involved. It is argued that including
strategic culture arguments into a neoclassical realist framework
best describes Canadas involvement in the intervention, and is
indicative of growing trends in Canadian foreign and defence
policy.

▼ This study examines whether Canada’s military’s
interoperability with the United States affects Canadian
sovereignty. The literature dealing with this subject is highly
polarized arguing that such interoperability either significantly
reduces our sovereignty or that it is necessary to maintain it.
Successive Canadian governments, for example, have traditionally
supported the military view that high levels of interoperability
with our allies are needed for operations to proceed safely and
effectively and that this poses no cost to Canadian sovereignty.
The interoperability critics strongly disagree, arguing that
increased interoperability, especially if it is with the United
States, will diminish our foreign policy independence, our ability
to refuse US military adventures, and our domestic sovereignty. In
a limited sense this division in the literature allows one to
comprehend the broad contours of the issue. Otherwise, recent works
are marked by shifting definitions and unclear methodologies. These
shortcomings have led to a reliance on conjecture, with the critics
predicting damaging “future implications” as a result of Canada’s
interoperability policies while governments promise outright gains.
As a result, the Canadian public that underwrites the financial
costs of such multi-billion dollar investments as the new F-35
fighter have little to guide them in assessing the widely claimed
interoperability and sovereignty benefits or costs of the purchase.
This thesis set about correcting these shortcomings by examining
Canada’s interoperability history, defining the terms, developing
clear hypotheses, and then testing them against recent issues and
events. These included Canada's response to 9/11 and our decisions
to participate, or not, in the 2003 invasion of Iraq and the war in
Afghanistan. These produced six case studies within which events
were assessed against the hypotheses that test for sovereignty
gains or losses. The subsequent evaluation concluded that Canadian
sovereignty was rarely at risk from Canada's military
interoperability policy and Canada was normally able to enjoy an
independent foreign policy. The only area where there were
successive sovereignty costs was when Canada became overly
dependent on US capabilities. This thesis also argued that the
methodology would be useful in gauging the sovereignty implications
of future cooperative projects.

Russia, Germany and the Contest for Hegemony in European

▼ A regime-based exploration of Euro-Russian gas
dynamics, with attention to the new profile of Russia in the
relationship and the limits of its coercive ability.
Russia has supplied natural gas to Europe reliably for
nearly four decades. But recent changes in Russian behaviour and
policy, combined with EU-driven regulatory changes, have created a
state of flux, and considerable concern in Europe. I address the
question of possible Russian hegemony in European gas relations,
and ask whether Moscow’s ambitions represent a security threat to
Europe. Positioning these questions within the context of a
European natural gas regime (NGR), I take a historical-comparitive
approach, dividing the evolution of the NGR into three phases.
Phase one moves from the origin of the cross-border trade in Europe
in the 1960s to the 1991 Soviet dissolution; phase two explores the
turbulent post-Soviet decade to 1999; and phase three addresses the
era of Vladimir Putin from 2000 to 2010. For each phase, I assess
hegemony by drawing on regime concepts offered by Alt et al, which
I modify for application to the idiosyncratic realm of natural gas.
The evidence suggests that Germany, not Russia, is more
appropriately considered hegemonic, having acquired gas influence
in the 1970s that it has not relinquished. However, there are also
indications that a German-Russian ‘co-hegemony’ could be
developing, characterized by disproportionate Russian influence in
Central Europe, giving rise to possible tension between EU values,
governance and responsibilities on one hand, and Russian influence
associated with co-hegemony on the other. Despite this, I suggest
that Russian aspirations constitute no imminent security threat to
Europe – European gas actors are well entrenched, and Moscow faces
strong disincentives to threaten its European buyers. ‘Co-hegemony’
could challenge the regime’s integrity, but evidence to date
suggests that the EU and Gazprom prefer patience and compromise to
brinkmanship, and that actor interest in maintaining the flow of
gas suggests greater optimism than dread. ‘Security’ is therefore
not as sound as it would be if Russia were an EU member or if it
had ratified the Energy Charter Treaty, but emerging dynamics do
not suggest imminent peril either. I conclude by discussing
possible directions for future research.

▼ Following the breakup of the Soviet Union, many
predicted there would be economic policy convergence, where it was
assumed that the post-Soviet states would all transition into
liberal-capitalist economies. Over twenty years later, these
forecasts have been confounded by the wide divergence in the
political-economic policy practices of the post-Soviet states,
which has been particularly apparent between Latvia and Belarus. In
terms of policy, Latvia made comprehensive liberal reforms to
become a market economy and orient its policies close to Europe and
away from Russia. Conversely, Belarus has taken a completely
divergent path from Latvia, and has followed a consistent and clear
pattern of behavior in regards to political-economic affairs, which
could be described as being anti-liberal, anti-reform, and
pro-Russian in orientation. Comparing Latvia and Belarus provides
an excellent case study to build on International Relations,
International Political Economy and Comparative Politics
literature, because traditional theories have difficulty in
explaining these states divergent policies. This dissertation uses
political-cultural theoretical arguments to explain the divergent
patterns of political-economic development between both countries,
and builds on the rich body of multidisciplinary literature on
cultural studies found within Social Constructivism to help
understand the political-cultural context in which Latvia’s and
Belarus’s policies were chosen. Specifically, this dissertation
highlights that the predominant political-cultural worldviews in
Latvia and Belarus, were shaped by the historic religious-cultural
environment in which these states were situated, which have had a
central influence on the patterns of domestic political-economic
development chosen by each country since 1991. Additionally, this
dissertation also shows that such worldviews had important
implications for international relations, in that Latvia being
historically situated in the sphere of Western Christian culture
gravitated towards the West and away from the Russia, while Belarus
being historically situated predominantly in the cultural sphere of
Russian Orthodox Christianity was more naturally prone to gravitate
towards closer relations with Russia, and away from Western Europe.
This is important in pointing to the prime influence of
religious-cultural worldviews in shaping political-economic
behavior. In doing so my work addresses many gaps left by previous
theoretical explanations on post-Soviet transformation. In terms of
policy implications, the findings will have a wider applicability
in helping to understand the types of political-economic
development policies that are chosen by other states in
post-Communist, post-authoritarian, and post-colonial contexts,
which are experiencing extensive transformation and integration
into the global economy.

▼ The cruel nature of war gives reason for its study. A
crucial component of this research aims to uncover the reasons
behind victory and defeat. Winning, after all, is the central
attraction of organized violence. Unfortunately, political science
efforts in this direction have been rare, and the few theories on
offer (numerical preponderance, technology theory, and proficiency)
are infrequently tested against the empirical record. This
dissertation therefore not only subjected the main theories of
battlefield victory to a systematic test against the historical
record, but also did so with a dataset more comprehensive and with
greater chronological breadth than any other in the political
science literature. The range of battles included runs from Megiddo
(1469 BC) to Wanat (2008). Such a historically ambitious
undertaking is unfortunately fraught with a series of
methodological concerns. However, fears regarding the reliability
of these historical statistics are best allayed by the assortment
of historiographical techniques that have been used to eliminate
the more dubious estimations. Concerns regarding data validity are
similarly met with a clear delineation of methodological scope:
current data is both western-centric and fails to speak to combat
in pre-agrarian settings; the conclusions drawn below therefore
keep a recognition of these limitations in mind. Ultimately, the
chief findings of this study are that neither Napoleon’s ‘big
battalions’ nor armies boasting technological supremacy over their
rivals are assured any guarantee of battlefield success. This
result is a powerful blow to both mainstream realist theory (whose
power calculations rely on raw aggregations like army size) and
Western defence planners (who have predicated their strategies on
the belief that technology is the chief underpinning of victory).
That being said, the most compelling causal explanation for
battlefield victory, combat proficiency, appears subject to a
crucial caveat: even the most talented armies can be ground into
dust. This finding will provide little comfort to gifted armies
that find themselves involved in a costly and prolonged campaign,
such as Canada and America in Afghanistan. Lastly, this project’s
contribution should be seen as not only theoretical and practical
in nature, but also as providing a methodological toolkit and
empirical resource of use to anyone subsequently interested in
tracing the evolution of organized violence over time. In short,
this project is summation of how political science thinks about the
most basic aspect of war: battle. As the findings of this
dissertation suggest, what is distinctly troublesome is that our
existing theories and assumptions about who wins and why appear to
bear little resemblance to reality. If anything, this dissertation
calls attention to the urgent need for further research into the
matter of battle victory.

Ambivalent Ally: Culture, Cybernetics, and the Evolution of

▼ Canada consistently balances competing inclinations
for proximity and distance with the United States. Yet the extant
literature on Canadian foreign policy has rarely focused on this
particular behaviour trait or readily accepted that such an
ambiguous stance is actually underpinned by a strategic logic, let
alone the crux of a purported grand strategy. And the few that that
are open to the notion of a Canadian grand strategy often overlook
the domestic decision-making determinants of behaviour, are largely
empirical-descriptive in content, or are chronologically limited to
either the early Cold War or a few key foreign policy episodes.
This dissertation rectifies these shortcomings by providing a
theoretical-explanatory and empirically-informed account of
Canada’s post-war grand strategy, in which its domestic origins,
strategic policies, and cultural predispositions are all carefully
explored. It does so by applying the cultural-cybernetic model of
behaviour, which combines strategic cultural factors that guide
policy-makers on security matters with cybernetic policy processes,
through which beliefs, inclinations, and policy choices are
standardized and regularized as distinct doctrines across a range
of foreign, defence, and security policies. It tests this model on
two key cases of Canadian grand strategy in the post-war period:
(1) Canada’s policy responses to American preferences on strategic
(air and missile) defence over some six decades, and (2) its policy
responses to US – and to a lesser extent British – strategic
preferences on NATO defence strategy during the Cold War. The
findings reveal that Canada’s strategic policies fluctuated between
the two Standing Operational Doctrines in its policy repertoire:
continental soft-bandwagoning and defensive weak-multilateralism.
These two doctrines span the range of feasible policy options – the
“goldilocks zone” – required to ensure that any trade-offs between
security and sovereignty, as the central values being pursued in
the cybernetic process, are minimized. It is for this reason that
Canada’s strategic behaviour has a high degree of policy
continuity, patterned consistency, and is best described as the
goldilocks grand strategy.
