PAPERMobilizing International Law in the Palestinian Struggle for JusticeThis introduction by CCDP Research Associate Alaa Tartir with George Bisharat, Jeff Handmaker and Ghada Karmi to a special issue of Global Jurist (July 2018) on “International Law and the State of Israel” states that while we cannot afford to neglect law in envisioning alternative futures in Israel/Palestine (including statehood), justice always remains a guide.

PhD THESISCongo: A State EcosystemThe “postcolonial African state” is still generally seen through the lens of state failure and fragility within IR. Stéphanie Perazzone presents alternative narratives, arguing that patterns of state formation in the Congo and elsewhere remain surprisingly strong precisely as “the state” continues to be institutionally weakened, conceptually ambiguous, and always contested.

BOOK CHAPTERAgrarian Transition, Adaptation and Contained Conflict in Cambodia and Vietnam since the NinetiesIn his contribution to Crisis and Conflict in the Agriculture (ed. by R. Zurayk, E. Woertz and R. Bahn, CAB International, October 2018), Christophe Gironde explores the evolution of crisis and protest in agricultural and rural communities. He concludes that Cambodia and Vietnam’s failure to experiment outright agrarian conflict reflects a shift in dialectic from crisis-conflict to transition-adaptation.
