This book was released on 2005 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume analyzes the Stability Pact South East Europe Self-Assessment Studies with the three-fold aim of enhancing the relevance of the original papers, examining their findings for the benefit of local, national, regional and international decision-makers, and preparing the ground for a possible more comprehensive phase of the Stock-Taking Programme. Western and regional contributors were asked to assess the quality of the papers, address any omissions, add contextual information they perceived to be relevant, and, on the basis of those findings, make constructive suggestions and recommendations for enhanced international institutional engagement in the region. Three types of analyses were commissioned: analyses of the self-assessment papers by country; region-wide analyses of the topical papers; and a conclusive chapter surveying not only the self-assessment papers in the original volumes but also the thematic and national analyses in this volume, data from the Swiss MFA Stability Pact mandated Expert Formation and Transparency in Defence Programmes studies.

Download or read book Intergovernmental Organisations and Security Sector Reform written by David Murray Law and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2007 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intergovernmental organisations (IGOs) play a crucial role in security sector reform and governance (SSR/G). In virtually all instances of recent and current SSR programme delivery, IGOs have either led the SSR effort or supported the lead provided by other actors. How this role is played is of vital importance for the prospects of fostering durable security and development in a wide range of countries. This volume looks at a selection of organisations that have been in the forefront of SSR activity or that have the potential for significantly developing their SSR agendas in the future. These IGOs are the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), the European Union (EU), the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO), the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), the Council of Europe (CoE), the Economic Organisation of West African States (ECOWAS), the World Bank (WB) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). This year's volume is divided into four parts: conceptual issues; case studies on how IGOs have approached SSR in programme areas that are particularly representative of their overall action; case studies on the way various actors, primarily but not exclusively IGOs, have worked with each other in implementing SSR and supporting its implementation; and conclusions drawn from the various case studies as well as policy recommendations for future IGO work in the area of SSR/G.
Download or read book Towards Security Sector Reform in Post Cold War Europe written by Wilhelm N. Germann and published by Nomos Verlagsgesellschaft. This book was released on 2003 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Security Sector Reform (SSR) is a broad and ambitious notion that concerns establishing and improving those security relationships and architectures most commonly associated with liberal democracy. Starting from the premise that there is no universally applicable model for SSR, this volume explores the question how best to evaluate SSR in European context and analyses the conditions for determining and confirming criteria of success in this regard. The systematic gathering, analysing and evaluating of international expertise in democratic control, management and reform of the security sector is one of the main functions of the Geneva Centre of the Democratic Control of Armed Forces (DCAF).

Download or read book Challenges of Security Sector Governance written by Heiner Hänggi and published by Lit Verlag. This book was released on 2003 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The war in Iraq in spring 2003 was a further indication of the "resecuritization" of international relations triggered by the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. However, the new (or renewed) primacy of security will be of a rather different nature as compared to the Cold War period. The underlying assumption of the essays in this volume is that security issues will increasingly be approached from a governance perspective and that, in this context, the internal dimension of security governance--security sector governance--is an issue whose rapidly growing importance has not yet been duly recognized. Heiner Hnggi is assistant director of the Geneva Centre for the Democratic Control of Armed Forces. Theodor H. Winkler is director of the Geneva Centre for the Democratic Control of Armed Forces.
Download or read book The European Union as an Actor in Security Sector Reform written by Oya Dursun-Ozkanca and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-19 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book critically analyzes the European Union’s role in Security Sector Reform (SSR), a topical issue with regards to European security. While the literature on SSR has increased significantly in the past decade, too little remain in the way of comparative analyses of SSR case studies that are geared toward theory development. This collection strives to push the SSR literature in that direction. One key question it focuses on is whether the EU pursues a holistic approach vis-à-vis SSR. Another question the book addresses is why and how the EU activities towards SSR in conflict management, peacebuilding and statebuilding have produced a wide variety of outcomes that range from the failure to reform any or all of the sub-set of security sectors (police, justice, military, etc.) to complete and integrated reform. The volume encompasses all relevant cases of SSR in terms of the financial, human, and political resources involved at the EU level. Cases are drawn from the Balkans (Kosovo; Bosnia-Herzegovina), Africa (Democratic Republic of Congo), the Middle East (Palestinian Territories), Post-Soviet Space (Georgia), and Asia (Aceh, Indonesia). The end product is a welcome contribution to the literature, providing both an empirically and theoretically grounded approach to the study of SSR. This book was originally published as a special issue of European Security.
Download or read book Reform and Reconstruction of the Security Sector written by Alan Bryden and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2004 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Security sector reform (SSR) is widely recognised as key to conflict prevention, peace-building, sustainable development and democratisation. SSR has gained most practical relevance in the context of post-conflict reconstruction of so-called failed states' and states emerging from violent internal or inter-state conflict. As this volume shows, almost all states need to reform their security sectors to a greater or lesser extent, according to the specific security, political and socio-economic contexts, as well as in response to the new security challenges resulting from globalisation and post-9/11 developments. Contributions from academics and practitioners elaborate on both the conceptual underpinnings and the practical realities of security sector reform and - a crucial aspect of post-conflict peace-building - security sector reconstruction.

Download or read book Security Sector Reform in Central and Eastern Europe written by Wilhelm N. Germann and published by Nomos Verlagsgesellschaft Mbh & Company. This book was released on 2005 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume reports on the success and failures in the efforts of eleven Central and East European transformation countries in the reform of their respective security sectors over the past decade. The case studies analyse and assess whether and to what extent the norms, concepts, standards and operational requirements commonly associated with the notion of security sector reform were addressed in the recent and ongoing democratization processes. Beyond the level of each individual case, it analyses which criteria have been conducive or are considered to be instrumental to the ultimate results. The book addresses practical problems of security sector reform, and aims mainly at ï providing comprehensive and detailed information on security sector reform in several Central and East European states, developing a synthesis of what happened in each individual country; ï searching for analogies and similarities that would allow for practical conlcusions on generally applicable criteria for success, and ï offering practical tools for the assessment of success and failure in SSR.
