Abstract:
Abstract Ceasefires play a role in almost all civil war peace processes. Yet existing studies undertheorize the ways in which different logics drive the design of ceasefire agreements, and the effect this has on violence suspension. Building on bargaining theory and existing ceasefire literature, we identify different bargaining problems conflict parties face over the course of a conflict, and three classes of ceasefire design they use to address these problems. We argue that the effect of ceasefires is driven both by these underlying logics and by the provisions they contain. Building on the PA-X data to capture the provisions included within all written civil war ceasefires between 1990 and 2019, and using Uppsala Conflict Data Program georeferenced event data, we estimate models of ceasefire survival, with conflict deaths as the main measure of whether a ceasefire remains in place. We find that definitive ceasefires (i.e., agreements with demobilization and incompatibility provisions), followed by preliminary ceasefires (i.e., agreements with compliance mechanisms), are associated with longer periods of violence suspension than cessation of hostilities agreements that lack such provisions. We discuss the implications of our results for conflict parties and third parties seeking to facilitate the transition from war to peace.

Abstract:
The U.S. strategy in the current conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan as well as with al-Qaeda has focused predominantly on heavy U.S. military involvement (with a high proportion of kinetic operations), while using influence components (media, public diplomacy, Civil Affairs (CA), Military Information Support Operations (MISO), and Public Affairs (PA)), for the most part, in a reactive manner. This paper explores influence strategy and theory to identify what the key components of an effective influence strategy are, and how to modify these components to increase strategic effectiveness. First examined is the relationship of influence strategy with grand strategy, then progressed to examining several key influence theories as proposed by Cialdini, Ellul, Pratkanis, and Aronson, Tugwell, McLuhan, and Reilly. From the review, it appears that there are multiple descriptive formulations of the components of influence, but no specific formulations on how to develop an effective influence strategy using these principles. The principles of influence were compared and several hypotheses regarding an effective influence strategy proposed to help achieve the desired political end-state. The authors plan to test these hypotheses in future research using case studies of the Boer War, WWI, WWII, the Cold War, and the current conflict of U.S. versus trans-national Jihadi terrorists.

Abstract:
Civilna družba v demokratičnih državah zahteva, da so oborožene sile profesional- ne. Torej morajo oborožene sile teh družb imeti jasno predstavo o tem, kaj vojaška profesija sploh je. Predvsem pa morajo imeti jasno izoblikovano predstavo o tem, kakšen je profesionalni častnik, saj je prav častniški zbor tisti, ki je odgovoren za vodenje oboroženih sil. Znanstvene razprave o vojaški profesiji in profesionalnem častniku so se pojavile po koncu druge svetovne vojne z deli Samuela Huntingtona, Morissa Janowitza, Bengta Abrahamssona in drugih. Njihova razmišljanja so odsevala predvsem okoli- ščine v času hladne vojne, te pa so se s padcem berlinskega zidu v devetdesetih letih prejšnjega stoletja močno spremenile. Večina avtorjev tako ugotavlja, da je nujno preveriti in posodobiti koncepte vojaške profesije in vojaškega profesionalca. V članku poskušam odgovoriti na to, kaj danes pomenita pojma vojaška profesija in profesionalni častnik ter kako bi k razvoju vojaške profesije in profesionalnega častnika morali pristopiti v Slovenski vojski (SV). Civil society in democratic countries expects its armed forces to be professional. Therefore, the armed forces in those countries need to have a clear idea of what pro- fession of arms is. They should especially have a clear idea of what a professional officer is, since the officer corps is responsible for leading the armed forces. The subjects of profession of arms and professional officer were first scientifically discussed after the Second World War by authors such as Samuel Huntington, Morris Janowitz, Bengt Abrahamson and others. Their theories reflected the circumstances of the Cold War, which, however, significantly changed with the fall of the Berlin Wall in the 1990’s. Most of the authors today have thus identified the need for revising and updating the traditional concepts of the profession of arms and military professional. The article attempts an answer to what the terms profession of arms and professional officer mean today, and how the SAF should approach the development of military profession and professional officers.

Abstract:
In the spring of 1942, the Sun Shipbuilding and Drydock Company was gearing up for the most productive three years in its history. With the United States at war, the demand for transport ships would soon propel the Chester-based shipyard to a position of unmatched prominence in the industry – a remarkable development for a concern that was originally conceived as a support subsidiary for its parent, the Sun Oil Company. Twenty-six years earlier, Joseph N. Pew, the younger of two brothers who oversaw the fortunes of Sun Oil, had suggested the creation of a shipyard to build tankers needed to carry the products of Sun's Marcus Hook (Pa.) refinery. He and his older brother J. Howard acquired the old Merchant's Shipyard, hired cousin John G. Pew as president, and began building tankers.By the end of 1943, Sun Ship boasted 35,000 employees, approximately half of whom were black. More than one third of the black employees worked in the company's No. 4 facility, a yard intended by the Pews to be staffed completely by black workers. Yard No. 4 presented blacks with another instance of a recurring dilemma: should they postpone the goal of full integration for the sake of economic improvement, or should they forgo the opportunity to improve their vocational expertise and economic condition for the ultimate goal of total equality in a fully integrated society? Such a goal seemed, on the eve of the Second World War, nearly as remote as it had been at the close of the Civil War. Jim Crow ruled throughout the South. The North lacked Jim Crow laws, but discrimination and segregation were the norm rather than the exception. “What have Negroes to fight for?” A. Philip Randolph demanded in 1942. “If you haven't got democracy yourself, how can you carry it to somebody else?”

Abstract:
This chapter studies the child figure as ‘the conduit for the exploration of the trauma and loss of the Spanish Civil War and its aftermath of dictatorship in Spain’ in well-known films including El espíritu de la colmena/The Spirit of the Beehive (dir. Víctor Erice, 1973), Cría cuervos/Raise Ravens (dir. Carlos Saura, 1976), Secretos del corazón/Secrets of the Heart (dir. Montxo Armendáriz, 1997) and Pa negre/Black Bread (dir. Agustí Villalonga, 2010). In an analysis informed by queer theory, and in particular by Lee Edelman’s concept of reproductive futurism and Elizabeth Freeman’s erotohistoriography, the chapter focuses on sequences of intense intimacy (between mother and child, for example), transgressive kids’ games, and some traumatic events witnessed by children to explore the potential of the child figure as the key to queer the films’ version of history.
