http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/183071 This book comprises contributions by leading experts in the field of international humanitarian law on the subject of the categorisation or classification of armed conflict. It is divided into two sections: the first aims to provide the reader with a sound understanding of the legal questions surrounding the classification of hostilities and its consequences; the second includes ten case studies that examine practice in respect of classification.  Detailed and comprehensive overview of all the legal issues involved in classifying conflicts either as international or non-international Classification of recent conflicts, such as those in Libya, Afghanistan, Gaza, and the conflict with Al-Qaeda, demonstrate the uncertainty surrounding the conflicts Detailed case studies, such as the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Southern Lebanon, and Columbia, provide evidence of the practice of states and non-state armed groups Explores the increasing overlap between international humanitarian law and international human rights law in situations of conflict Understanding how classification operates in theory and practice is a precursor to identifying the relevant rules that govern parties to hostilities. With changing forms of armed conflict which may involve multi-national operations, transnational armed groups and organized criminal gangs, the need for clarity of the law is all-important. The case studies selected for analysis are Northern Ireland, DRC, Colombia, Afghanistan (from 2001), Gaza, South Ossetia, Iraq (from 2003), Lebanon (2006), the so-called war against Al-Qaeda, and future trends. The studies explore the legal consequences of classification particularly in respect of the use of force, detention in armed conflict, and the relationship between human rights law and international humanitarian law. The practice identified in the case studies allows the final chapter to draw conclusions as to the state of the law on classification.

The popular anger which erupted in the aftermath of the election posed the most serious internal challenge to the stability of the Islamic Republic since its foundation. Although the street demonstrations have since subsided, the consequences of the election are likely to be felt for some time. Ali Ansari argues that the crisis was not principally about electoral fraud, but rather that it was part of a far deeper malaise in the structure and ideology of the Islamic Republic. The 2009 election needs to be seen as part of a far longer political struggle. The size of the opposition reflected the fact that this crisis extended to the future of Iran itself. This book seeks to clarify the historical, political and social framework for the crisis. It also argues that a durable solution to the problem of Iran's international relations requires a better understanding of Iran and a settlement that provides for a stable future for the Iranian state. Endorsements 'Ali Ansari is rightly acclaimed as one of the most astute observers of modern Iranian society and politics. His combination of historical erudition and political savvy about the labyrinthine structure of power in Iran make his observations on the June 2009 contested election a must-read for anyone interested in the fate of that beleaguered nation and that pivotal event.' Professor Abbas Milani, Hamid and Christina Moghadam Director of Iranian Studies, Stanford University 'With a precise analytical scalpel, Ali Ansari cuts through the offi cial myths of Iran's controversial 2009 presidential election. This indispensable guide gets to the heart of the most serious political crisis faced by the Islamic Republic, and puts the vote and its violent aftermath into critical historical context. Revolutionary Iran will never be the same, and Ansari - for many years among the most sophisticated observers of Iranian politics - tells us why.'

The new prominence of the Kurds in the affairs of the Middle East and Turkey demands attention.Events in the past 40 years have transformed the profile and potency of the Kurds, whose influence is critical to the future of Iran, Iraq, Syria and Turkey. Kurdish social and political dynamism affects these key states to the extent that managing the 'rise of Kurdistan' has become an enduring feature of Middle East politics.Kurds have been treated solely as 'problems' within established states, but increasingly vibrant expressions of Kurdish ethno-nationalism have quickened the cross-border currents of Kurdish politics and society. The complex regional interplay of Kurdish groups, state actors and geopolitical interests make it imperative for governments to consider the Kurds in their foreign policy towards the Middle East.Major strides in Kurdish studies have been made in recent years. This book brings together leading scholars to analyse critical aspects of Kurdish politics in Iran, Iraq, Syria and Turkey and examine how these intertwine with wider regional and international concerns.Endorsements'This well-researched and carefully constructed volume illuminates an important new factor in Middle East politics, the impact of the modern Kurdish nation on the four main countries they inhabit as momentous changes take place in Iraq, Turkey, Syria and Iran. Even without an early hope of independence, the Kurds, one of the world's largest populations without their own state, have a potential which needs to be recalculated. This book serves the purpose admirably and is a must for those who wish to understand the region in depth.'

However, today there appears to be a widening strategic rift among the allies. Evidently, NATO increasingly struggles to reach consensus on a whole range of strategic issues. So is the alliance on a path to disintegration and, ultimately, to failure?The book argues that the organization has developed into a fluid 'multi-tier' alliance. On many issues NATO is in fact divided into several different camps that are pushing in different directions. Thus, allies can be grouped into one of three tiers: a 'reformist', a 'status-quo' and a 'neo-traditionalist' one. While the evolution of such a multi-tier alliance will not inevitably result in NATO's demise unmanaged this manifestation of camps will continuously disrupt the organization's strategic agility.The book finds that if NATO is to maintain strategic vitality, it needs to develop new institutional mechanisms and to make 'variable geometry' work.Table of contents:1.

This book provides the first extensive examination of the impact of 9/11 on the UK's policy towards this critical region. It places Britain's involvement firmly within the rich historical context which is essential for understanding the legacy of empire and demonstrates how the New Labour leadership wilfully ignored the lessons to be learned from past experience. The book also argues that Britain not only set the scene for US engagement in the Middle East, but also became tainted by association with a US project for reforming the region that has foundered.ContentsIntroductionHistorical Background: Stages in the RelationshipNew Labour Worldview and the Middle EastNew Labour: New Policy-Making ProcessBritain's Role in the Peace Process: 1997 to 2001The Road to War in IraqReaping the Whirlwind: the Fallout from the Invasion of Iraq for British Relations across the Middle EastRealpolitik and the Peace Process after 9/11Still Flying the Flag: Britain and the Arab Gulf StatesConclusionsAbout the AuthorDr Rosemary Hollis is Director of the Olive Tree Scholarship Programme at City University London, and was formerly Director of Research at Chatham House.Endorsements'Rosemary Hollis's account of the British role in the Middle East under New Labour is a well-written and significant contribution to our understanding of the modern Middle East.

Today, Eritrea is one of the most repressive and isolated countries in Africa, and indeed in the world. It has an undemocratic power structure, a low level of socioeconomic development, a highly militarized political system given increasingly to armed interventionism, and the tendency to disregard international opinion in the search for local solutions. It has fought wars with each of its neighbours, including a particularly devastating conflict with Ethiopia which remains unresolved, and has adopted a hostile stance towards the UN, the European Union and the United States.This Chatham House book, edited by Richard Reid, brings together the insights of international analysts and scholars in an effort to understand the nature of Eritrea's foreign relations, both regionally and in the wider international arena.ContentsIntroduction Richard ReidEritrea's role and foreign policy in the Horn of Africa: past and present perspectives Richard ReidThe EPLF/PFDJ experience: how it shapes Eritrea's regional strategy Dan ConnellWhat has gone wrong with Eritrea's foreign relations?

To date, international attention has focused primarily on the industrial and energy sectors. However, the agriculture, forestry, and land use sector is a major driver of the climate change problem and, thus, must be an integral part of the solution.Once the province of think-tanks, academics and global agencies such as the UN, climate change has finally penetrated the world's consciousness. To date, international attention has focused primarily on the industrial and energy sectors. However, the agriculture, forestry and land use sector is a major driver of the climate change problem and, thus, must be an integral part of the solution.In this wide-ranging volume, international experts explain the links between climate change and forests, highlighting the potential role of this sector within emerging climate policy frameworks and carbon markets. After framing forestry activities within the larger context of climate-change policy, they analyse the operation and efficacy of market-based mechanisms for forest conservation and climate change. Drawing on examples from around the world (sequestration rights in Chile, carbon offset programmes in Australia and New Zealand, and emerging policy incentives in the US), the authors present concrete policy recommendations. They explore different voluntary schemes for carbon crediting, provide an overview of carbon accounting best practices, and present tools for use in future sequestration and offset programmes.About the AuthorsCharlotte Streck is director of Climate Focus BV, a Rotterdam based consultancy on climate law and policy and the international carbon market.

How can this policy be explained? Does Russia have sufficient resources to implement such ambitious goals? To answer these questions the author explores the role of these regions in the Eurasian economic and strategic landscapes; sources of instability; decisive factors in Russia's policy and its relationship with the West and China.

The countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council (Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE) are one of the fastest growing parts of the world economy. Burgeoning wealth has strengthened the demand for more sophisticated financial services. Rising transaction volumes have made a compelling case for building the infrastructure to expand services while justifying the cost.This book examines the Gulf region as a financial centre and an economic power hub, focusing on its role in the world economy and capital markets. In particular, the authors address the issue of whether wealth alone is enough to create an international financial centre. They also assess how many financial centres the Gulf can support and which has the best chance of making the transformation from regional player to global leader. This timely book is the first to provide an overall analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the region, assessing its global aspirations and exploring long-term trends.'This book by experts in their respective fields is an important and overdue contribution and a must-read for those with an interest in the Gulf region. For what happens in the Gulf will have a significant influence on the entire Middle East and the international financial markets.' - Dr Mohsin Khan, Director, Middle East and Central Asia Department, International Monetary Fund.'This ably edited volume could not have come at a more appropriate time, as the traditional financial markets go through turbulence unseen in decades.

Britain, therefore, will need to develop a diverse range of instruments to respond to these threats.In our increasingly diverse society it is clear that foreign, security, and national policy responses must be rooted in shared values. But they must also offer practical means by which the integrity of our crucial infrastructure and our civil society structures can be maintained in the face of new threats.This collection of essays by key experts in the field offers a wide-ranging and thought-provoking account of security policy in today's world. They address both the core values that must guide policy makers in the coming years, alongside hard-edged analysis of the complexity and nuance that must be taken into account if measures to safeguard the British public are truly to offer robust safeguards against the range of threats that we may face over the coming decades.In the context of an increasingly "contracted out" public sector, how can we best ensure that the vital mechanisms hold fast under the extreme pressure represented by any of these threats? How can partnership working be strengthened to provide this security? And how can we expand these structures to take in the international and multilateral understandings so essential for our daily lives and positively crucial in times of crisis? What can be done to ensure that promoting our security is not confined solely to the Foreign Office, the Home Office and the security services but instead becomes the focus of each and every government department?Published by the Smith Institute.

What we're doing with it is leaving people in the dark and endangering the planet. But we could do much better. Keeping The Lights On shows how. In immediate, accessible everyday language it describes a different way to think about energy, what we want from it and how we get it.We can begin with electricity - how we use it, produce it, and pay for it. Traditional electricity is a century old, obsolete and overdue for improvement. But we keep getting it wrong. The decisions that governments and companies are now taking are making matters worse, missing opportunities all over the world.That could change rapidly. Electric options are burgeoning. Innovative technologies, novel finances and healthier business relations offer cleaner, more convenient, more stable systems, pointing the way to sustainable electricity services. But the evolution is much too slow. Too many governments, too many companies, too many people cling stubbornly to out-of-date assumptions and mindsets.Keeping The Lights On challenges these sterile and damaging misconceptions, with an exhilarating vision of a brighter future. We can make energy use more reliable, more equitable, and more sustainable, for ourselves and our children, starting with electricity, starting now.Author: Walt Patterson, Associate Fellow of the Energy, Environment and Development Programme at Chatham House.Co-published by Chatham House and Earthscan, July 2007OrderingYou can order this book through Brookings.Alternatively, you can order through Chatham House:T: +44 (0)20 7957 5700 F: +44 (0)20 7957 5710 E: contact@chathamhouse.org.ukPraise for Keeping The Lights On'This is such a timely book. Combining extraordinary historical insight with the sharpest analysis of where we are now, Walt Patterson carves out the most applied and practical of "road maps" as to where we need to go if we are to deliver a genuinely sustainable electricity system for the future. As we go into a period of considerable turbulence, primarily because of the impacts of climate change, Keeping The Lights On will undoubtedly be seen as a very well-informed Guidebook.' - Jonathon Porritt CBE, Chair, UK Sustainable Development Commission'Fashions come and fashions go in the energy world. Security of supply, climate change and market liberalisation have all vied for our attention. It's good to have one voice that's stayed constant over thirty years of turbulence and change. Keeping The Lights On distils Walt Patterson's thinking over the last three decades. As ever, he provokes us to re-examine our own thinking about energy policy. Essential reading as we face up to new challenges.' - Professor Jim Skea OBE, Research Director, UK Energy Research Centre'A very important and timely book. Walt Patterson persuasively challenges traditional assumptions about how we think of energy and electricity, and presents an exciting vision of an innovative and sustainable future.' - Nick Mabey, Chief Executive, E3G (Third Generation Environmentalism), former senior advisor in the UK Prime Minister's Strategy Unit'Walt has got this exactly right. It should be compulsive reading, if not compulsory reading, for all politicians and other players that determine or have a role to play in energy policy, and more importantly in tackling climate change.' - Allan Jones MBE, Chief Executive Officer, London Climate Change Agency'The great free thinker on energy systems.' - George Monbiot http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/63385 Tue, 05 Apr 2011 15:43:39 +0100 Chatham House - Books http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/63382 European migration policies are undergoing significant changes. After three decades of highly restrictive approaches, demographic changes and gaps in labour supply are prompting many European governments to liberalize their migration policies. Yet the shift to more liberal regimes comes at a time of increased hostility to asylum seekers and support for parties of the far right in several countries, as well as uncertainty about the effectiveness of integration and race relations strategies.European migration policies are undergoing significant changes. After three decades of highly restrictive approaches, demographic changes and gaps in labour supply are prompting many European governments to liberalize their migration policies. Yet the shift to more liberal regimes comes at a time of increased hostility to asylum seekers and support for parties of the far right in several countries, as well as uncertainty about the effectiveness of integration and race relations strategies. This timely book examines the nature and impact of these changing migration policies in France and Germany and the UK. It analyses the content of new legislation, as well as the policy debate and party political treatment of migration issues in each country. The book considers the implications of these new policies on other categories of migrants: asylum seekers, refugees, and resident ethnic minorities. http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/63382 Tue, 05 Apr 2011 15:43:38 +0100 Chatham House - Books http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/63383 The book outlines the traditionally difficult relations between Poland and Ukraine and assesses the changes in the last decade, which have resulted in very constructive bilateral relations between the two states. The authors argue that the strengthening of bilateral ties bodes well for stability in Europe, and is a welcome development in the context of the integration process currently proceeding apace across the continent. Ironically, the very process of integration is having less than benign effects on Warsaw’s relations with Kiev.The book outlines the traditionally difficult relations between Poland and Ukraine and assesses the changes in the last decade, which have resulted in very constructive bilateral relations between the two states. The authors argue that the strengthening of bilateral ties bodes well for stability in Europe, and is a welcome development in the context of the integration process currently proceeding apace across the continent. Ironically, the very process of integration is having less than benign effects on Warsaw?s relations with Kiev. Despite the best of intentions of political elites in both countries, the conditions the EU requires of Poland will inevitably have a deleterious impact on relations with Ukraine, particularly in terms of cross-borders trade and free movement of people, which is not desired by all Polish regions. The book thus explores how Warsaw and Kiev are attempting to balance EU and regional demands. http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/63383 Tue, 05 Apr 2011 15:43:38 +0100 Chatham House - Books http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/63384 Good bilateral relations are vital to effective decision-making in the EU. France and Germany, working in tandem, have for many years acted as a motor of integration, but few other countries have actively sought to build up good bilateral relations on a systematic basis. However, since the 1998 ‘step change’ initiative, the UK has been trying to do just this. This paper examines these efforts to enhance bilateral cooperation, aimed at improving policy-making at the European level, particularly in the areas of defence, economic policy and internal security.Good bilateral relations are vital to effective decision-making in the EU.

This paper examines these efforts to enhance bilateral cooperation, aimed at improving policy-making at the European level, particularly in the areas of defence, economic policy and internal security. 'This "new" bilateralism within the EU operates on a quantitatively as well as qualitatively new level, representing a vital dimension to policy-making. Smith and Tsatsas take a fresh and very welcome look at what has become the UK prime minister's favoured approach to European decision-making, providing a critical guide to its strengths and weaknesses.' - Geoffrey Edwards, Deputy Director, Centre of International Studies, University of Cambridge. http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/63384 Tue, 05 Apr 2011 15:43:38 +0100 Chatham House - Books http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/63380 Germany and Britain are among the keenest advocates of enlarging the European Union. Yet their interests in enlargement are very different. As a country bordering central Europe, Germany has strong positive interests in enlargement, both political and economic. But there are also German anxieties about the implications of enlargement for the functioning of the EU and further integration. Britain, by contrast, is more sanguine about the institutional implications, but has much smaller economic interests in the region.Germany and Britain are among the keenest advocates of enlarging the European Union.

But there are also German anxieties about the implications of enlargement for the functioning of the EU and further integration. Britain, by contrast, is more sanguine about the institutional implications, but has much smaller economic interests in the region. This book provides a guide to the range of interests in British and German enlargement policies. It analyses the shifts in both countries' policies on enlargement since 1989, in the context of their differing strategies for developing the EU. It examines in detail their economic involvement in central and eastern Europe, contrasting the major German role in regional trade and investment with the comparatively minor British one. There is a complex equation of tensions and synergies between the two countries' approaches to adapting regional aid and the common agricultural policy for enlargement. The authors consider where Germany and Britain might cooperate in reforming the EU's budget, policies and institutions, and where conflict between their approaches will shape the politics of enlargement.OrderingTo order this book, please contact Chatham House:T: +44 (0)20 7957 5700 F: +44 (0)20 7957 5710 E: contact@chathamhouse.org.uk http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/63380 Tue, 05 Apr 2011 15:43:36 +0100 Chatham House - Books http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/63381 As the costs of assisting asylum seekers in Europe have risen, the UK and Germany have both attempted to manage the problem through the regional dispersal of asylum seekers. This study, jointly funded by the Anglo-German Foundation for the Study of Industrial Society (www.agf.org.uk), examines how far this form of burden-sharing has met its objectives, and what its impact has been on asylum seekers. It finds that while dispersal had had some success in redistributing the costs of receiving asylum seekers (particularly in Germany), in many cases it has also exacerbated inter-ethnic tensions and racial violence in many new receiving areas. The paper recommended a number of changes to both UK and German systems. The report received widespread media coverage, including the BBC Radio 4's Today Programme, Five Live and BBC News 24, and the Daily Telegraph, Express and Mirror."OrderingTo order this book, please contact Chatham House:T: +44 (0)20 7957 5700 F: +44 (0)20 7957 5710 E: contact@chathamhouse.org.uk http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/63381 Tue, 05 Apr 2011 15:43:36 +0100 Chatham House - Books http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/63379 OrderingYou can order this book through Chatham House:T: +44 (0)20 7957 5700 F: +44 (0)20 7957 5710 E: contact@chathamhouse.org.uk http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/63379 Tue, 05 Apr 2011 15:43:35 +0100 Chatham House - Books http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/63378 Up to eight central and east European states – the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia, and Slovenia – are likely to join the European Union in 2004.

This edited volume assesses the likely impact of EU and Nato enlargement on relations between those central and east European states that are likely to join in the near future and those destined to remain outside. Looking at three thematic areas ? economic cooperation, security and defence, and free movement of people ? and six case studies, the book outlines the current relations between the states, how these relate to the past and what impact enlargement will have.

There have also been a number of crises - mostly misleadingly called financial crises. Some association has been made between the crises and the increasing freedom. An examination of these issues in the historical record of the last 150 years suggests caution before any such conclusion is drawn. This paper brings historical perspective to the issues and argues that there have been successful periods of freedom without serious problems. If more history were known fewer misdiagnoses might follow. http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/63373 Tue, 05 Apr 2011 15:43:33 +0100 Chatham House - Books http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/63369 The failure of the WTO Ministerial meeting in Seattle was a big blow to those who see trade liberalization as an important component of economic management and development.

Wang and Winters argue that the developing countries have to be brought much more securely into the trading system, with greater attention being paid to their needs. Developing countries should approach a round of trade liberalization with a firm view of their priorities, and seek to ensure that WTO obligations will assist in achieving them. Developed countries also need to review and revise their widely disparate agendas and start to bridge their differences. WTO members need to agree to procedural reform of the WTO and to improve its performance as an intergovernmental institution.OrderingTo order, please contact Chatham House:T: +44 (0)20 7957 5700 F: +44 (0)20 7957 5710 E: contact@chathamhouse.org.uk http://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/books/archive/view/63369 Tue, 05 Apr 2011 15:43:32 +0100 Chatham House - Books
