Abstract:
This paper examines the relationship between dominant and subordinate masculinities n inner-city residential areas of Belfast. It explores these relationships within the arena of the religiously segregated district, before exploring how these categories shift and mutate when transferred outside the local community. It examines how fear of violence among both dominant and subordinate men can be understood as a way of expressing masculinity. Through examining how men engage in spatial negotiations based on an assumption that they could be categorised as possible members of paramilitary organisat

Abstract:
The Gorkhas, originating from Nepal’s mountainous regions and numbering approximately 3.2 million domestically with significant diasporas in India (1.5 million), the UK (25,000), and Southeast Asia, have been globally valorized for their martial traditions. Approximately 30,000 serve in institutionalized military and paramilitary roles, including the British Army (4,000), Indian Army (32,000), and Singapore Police Force’s Gurkha Contingent (2,000). This study critically interrogates the historical, cultural, and socio-political construction of Gorkha identity, challenging reductive “martial ra

Abstract:
Caught between the well-armed imaginations of paramilitary organisations competing for the hearts and minds of a divided population, and state engineering of a liberal peace, civil society's impact on Northern Ireland's identity politics was limited during the thirty-year conflict. Specifically, the community and voluntary sector itself has tended to replicate as much as it challenged patterns of segregation in many of its own structures. With plans set out in the Northern Ireland Executive's Programme for Government (2008–11) to engage civil society in opening a new era of ‘good relations’ wo

Abstract:
This chapter examines the practices by which paramilitaries sought to methodically build a state presence in the region. The construction of schools and other populist actions were not simply smoke screens for the paramilitaries' drug-fueled criminal economies, nor were they just the egotistical self-indulgence of a few charismatic commanders. Or rather, as this chapter shows, they were those things but also much more. The war of position was a genuine state project; it was a deliberate attempt to create a durable new regime of accumulation and rule. And for the most part it succeeded. Paramil

Abstract:
The attacks of 9/11 caused a focus on the ‘War Model’ of counter-terrorism, which has tended to overshadow the existing role of policing in counter-terrorism. The importance of this role is only now beginning to fully re-emerge. Policing continues to play a critical role in countering terrorism, particularly when this threat emerges from culturally and linguistically diverse communities. Such counter-terrorist policing fulfills a number of roles, such as Community Policing, Paramilitary Policing, Investigative Policing, Intelligence Policing, Protective Policing and Tactica
