Searching For A Sense Of Control: The Challenge Presented By Community Conflicts Over Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations, Nancy A. Welsh, Barbara Gray Jul 2002

Searching For A Sense Of Control: The Challenge Presented By Community Conflicts Over Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations, Nancy A. Welsh, Barbara Gray

Faculty Scholarship

The growth in the number of concentrated animal feeding operations ("CAFOs"), particularly those involved in swine production, has brought with it increased community concern and outright conflict in many communities across the United States.' Most commentators have focused upon anticipated outcomes to explain the contentiousness of CAFO-related disputes.2 Meanwhile, even though the social dynamics that contribute to the development and escalation of conflicts over CAFOs parallel those exhibited in other kinds of community conflicts, little research has systematically examined the social dynamics associated with CAFO conflicts. One exception to this deficiency is recent work conducted by a team of researchers …

Promoting A Formal System Of Justice In Post-Taliban Afghanistan, Neil Kritz Jul 2002

Promoting A Formal System Of Justice In Post-Taliban Afghanistan, Neil Kritz

Connecticut Journal of International Law

I'm going to focus a bit differently here, and give a different slice or touch a different piece of the elephant as compared to the other presentations. I will address the justice issues in Afghanistan. Let me suggest for starters that there are several things that we learned from a lot of the recent previous cases, post-conflict scenarios in other parts of the world that are relevant to Afghanistan.

The first is the obvious one, as Spence emphasized, which is efforts to reestablish justice and a viable, credible system of justice - whatever that may mean in the local context …


On Local Justice And Culture In Post-Taliban Afghanistan, Thomas J. Barfield Jul 2002

On Local Justice And Culture In Post-Taliban Afghanistan, Thomas J. Barfield

Connecticut Journal of International Law

I'm here to discuss the Afghan justice system, the concept of law, and how people organize themselves, but perhaps from a very different perspective because, as an anthropologist, I worked through this system from the bottom up as opposed to the top down. Most of my experience was in pre-war Afghanistan in the mid1970s. This is now being looked back upon as a Golden Age but when I was there, it was perceived as a corrupt and failing regime run by the king whose departure was a good thing. But 20 years of warfare can change peoples' minds on what …


Symposium: Reluctant Nation Building: Promoting The Rule Of Law In Post-Taliban Afghanistan: Introductory Remarks, Laura A. Dickinson Jul 2002

Symposium: Reluctant Nation Building: Promoting The Rule Of Law In Post-Taliban Afghanistan: Introductory Remarks, Laura A. Dickinson

Connecticut Journal of International Law

In the wake of the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon and the U.S.-led military response in Afghanistan, the question of nationbuilding has reasserted itself as an issue of central importance. The interim Afghan government has asked for, and is beginning to receive, an enormous amount of international assistance. One of the many planned targets for such assistance is the promotion of democratic institutions and the rule of law. Why, then, is the title of this symposium, "Reluctant Nation Building: Promoting the Rule of Law in PostTaliban Afghanistan"? What concerns are raised when the international …
