The protection of journalists in armed conflicts

October 1997 · The RUSI Journal

Keith D Suter

The nature of warfare has changed throughout the world and, consequently, so has the nature of the job of those reporting on it. Wars have become more violent, claiming an increasing number of lives of the journalists involved as well as of civilians. Keith Suter here describes the situation which faces journalists currently reporting on the world's troublespots. Conflicts are no longer ... [Show full abstract] conventional, but have often turned into guerrilla warfare and since journalists are required to be where the fighting is taking place, they are constantly under threat. The international community has done very little to keep up with these changes. The Geneva. Convention, updated in 1977, and the Hague Convention of 1907, deal with the issue of ‘newspaper correspondents’ but, Suter argues, fail to address many of the main features of the ‘new warfare state’, most notably the rise of guerrilla warfare. He calls for governments to show more concern over the fates of their citizens who care journalists reporting from war zones.

Doğal Kaynaklar Temelinde İç Çatışmaların Ekonomik Teorisi

February 2017 · Anadolu Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Dergisi

Scholars did not place any emphasis on the studies regarding the issue of armed civil conflicts or wars from the ending of World War II to the late 1990s, though they appeared to be more common than the international wars. A high number of studies from then on, however, have suggested that there is a relationship between the natural resources and the onset, duration and severity of the armed ... [Show full abstract] civil conflicts or wars. In literature, the relationship between the natural resources and armed civil conflicts is accounted for with six different mechanisms. These are greedy the rebels mechanism, the greedy outsiders mechanism, the grievance mechanism, the feasibility mechanism, the weak states mechanism and the sparse network mechanism. That these mechanisms are based on different propositions makes it difficult to form a terminological and theoretical substructure. The current problem is intensified by the fact that the theories in some sources are not mentioned at all in other sources or that similar theories are used in a more different and even conflicting way. Likewise, it is seen in the sources in which different theories are claimed to be listed that these theories concentric with each other and that the theories used are no more than the repetition of or just complementary to one another. It is these deficiencies or difficulties in the current literature that make the primary factor for the preparation of this study. In the sense of this factor, this study is intended for two purposes. The first purpose of the study is to make an economic definition of the relationship between the natural resources and the commencement of the civil conflict with the help of civil conflict mechanisms in the light of the existing studies. The second purpose of the study is to contribute to the formation of terminological coordination and the shaping of the theoretical substructure with these definitions.

Femmes dans la guerre aujourd'hui

January 2007 · Multitudes

Giselle Donnard

The fate of women in times of war has always been considered something a non-issue, buried as it was, and made banal as part and parcel of the lot of civilian population in general, since women were non-combatants. But looking at more recent conflicts we can no longer pretend that women are in a home front of sorts, as opposed to soldiers in battle, because there is no home front anymore, and ... [Show full abstract] women are now right in the middle of armed conflicts, as, for instance, in Algeria and in Bosnia.
