Back to the future: Promoting peace through international law
- 2017
-
In: Leiden Journal of International Law. - 0922-1565 .- 1478-9698. ; 30, s. 775-792
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The world as a whole has not been at peace since 1914, and it is definitely not at peace today. David J. Dunn argues that this state of affairs may be due, in no small part, to aspects of the conventional wisdom that informs practical foreign policy and diplomacy. For example, the ancient notion si vis pacem, para bellum [if you desire peace, prepare for war] (Vegetius) or the nineteenth century idea that argues ‘[w]e have no eternal allies, and we have no perpetual enemies. Our interests are eternal and perpetual, and those interests it is our duty to follow’ (Lord Palmerston). These ‘insights’ neatly summarize the intellectual core of political realism; in particular, the ‘balance-of-power’ doctrine.

Borders in the mind and on the ground - (Re)categorization as “peace-building resistance”in the Preah Vihear Temple conflict
- 2019
-
In: Heritage and borders. Editor: Anna Källén.. - Stockholm : Kungliga Vitterhets historie och antikvitets akademien. - 0348-1433. - 9789188763143 ; , s. 83-104
-
Book chapter (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Borders now seem to be everywhere, just like it is often said in heritage studies that the past is everywhere. In this edited volume a multidisciplinary group of scholars explore what happens, philosophically and in practice, when these two concepts and phenomena, heritage and borders, are combined. The findings show that heritage, as well as borders, exist just as much in the mind as on the ground. Heritage and borders can be understood both in terms of roots and routes. They are matters of administration, but they are also matters of consideration, matters of competition, and matters of contention. They are defended in the name of security and protection, longing for belonging, and good will. And they are contested in the name of philosophical critique, or political and artistic activism. In six articles and a joint conversation, the volume addresses key issues and entangled complexities in discussions on heritage and borders that take place in and across academic disciplines today.

Defining and Analyzing “Resistance”: Possible Entrances to the Study of Subversive Practices
- 2016
-
In: Alternatives: Global, Local, Political. - THOUSAND OAKS, CA 91320 USA : SAGE Publications. - 0304-3754 .- 2163-3150. ; 41:3, s. 137-153
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This article explores the meaning of “resistance” and suggests a new path for “resistance studies,” which is an emerging and interdisciplinary field of the social sciences that is still relatively fragmented and heterogeneous. Resistance has often been connected with antisocial attitudes, destructiveness, reactionary or revolutionary ideologies, unusual and sudden explosions of violence, and emotional outbursts. However, we wish to add to this conceptualization by arguing that resistance also has the potential to be productive, plural and fluid, and integrated into everyday social life. The first major part of the article is devoted to discuss existing understandings of resistance with the aim of seeking to capture distinctive features and boundaries of this social phenomenon. Among other things, we will explore resistance in relation to other key concepts and related research fields. We then, in the article’s second major part, propose a number of analytical categories and possible entrances aiming at inspire more in-depth studies of resistance.

Dissident Voices in International Criminal Law
- 2015
-
In: Leiden Journal of International Law. - 0922-1565. ; 28:3, s. 673-689
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Since the end of the Cold War, societies from the former Soviet Union and others throughout Eastern Europe, Africa, Asia, and Latin America have overthrown dictators and other authoritative rulers in the hope of allowing democracy, the rule of law, and human rights. In some cases, the change has been violent and drawn out, while in other cases the change has been quick and (more or less) non-violent. Regardless of whether the change has been violent or not, a crucial question during and after transition is: In what ways should post-authoritarian and/or post-conflict societies deal with their ‘evil’ past in order to ‘enable the state itself to [once again] function as a moral agent’? This question constitutes the very core of what is known as ‘transitional justice’ (TJ).

Harold D. Lasswell and the Social Study of Personal Insecurity
- 2017
-
In: In Cochran M., Navari C. (eds) Progressivism and US Foreign Policy between the World Wars. The Palgrave Macmillan History of International Thought.. - New York : Palgrave Macmillan. - 9781137584335 ; , s. 193-217
-
Book chapter (other academic/artistic)abstract
- The productivity of the American political scientist Harold D. Lasswell (1902–1978) was legendary. He has written, co-authored, edited, and co-edited about 60 books. He has also contributed to more than 300 articles on a diverse range of subjects and has written several hundred reviews and comments to a variety of different academic journals. In total, his scholarly writing, which spanned over some five decades, resulted in no less than four million published words. Already in his 20s, Lasswell planned and carried out an “interdisciplinary” research program that emphasized the significance of culture, social structures, and personality in order to understand various political phenomena. In a discipline, at the time still dominated by historical, legal, and philosophical methods, he was an innovator, who developed various methodologies during the course of his work, qualitative as well as quantitative ones, including traditional and non-experimental methods, such as content analysis and in-depth interviews, but also different experimental and clinical methods as well as various statistical techniques.

I Felt a Little Homosexual Today, So I Called in Sick: The Formation of “Reverse Discourse” by Swedish Gay Activists in the 1970s
- 2022
-
In: Global Society. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1360-0826 .- 1469-798X. ; 36:3, s. 330-346
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This article revolves around the legal and epistemic battles around “homosexuality” in Sweden in 1979, which led to the abolition of homosexuality being classified as a “disease”. Among other things, gay activists “called in sick” to the Social Insurance Agency (SIA) and claimed that they were unable to work because they were homosexuals (read as mentally disordered). The phone calls can be understood as a formation of “reverse” discourse; that is, gay people starting to speak on their own behalf, while using the same categories by which they were labelled. By analysing this resistance and a sit-in that was organised at the Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare (NBHW), we conclude that reverse discourse, as a productive yet rupturing practice, is not a single- handed and unaccompanied resistance strategy but materialises as one practice among many in a complex web of resistance and power.

-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Following the end of the Cold War, it became a widely held belief that, after more than 70 years in exile, Russia would finally “return” to Europe—a sphere to which it had belonged since the time of Peter the Great—politically as well as normatively. Quite early on, however, it became clear that the country was choosing its own way, in ideological terms but also, by extension, in its understanding of international law—what the law of nations is for and what it is about. Lauri Mälksoo’s, Russian Approaches, is, particularly considering its heuristic value, the most informative, interesting and innovative book written to date regarding (i) what the philosophy of international law in Russia is and how it has evolved over time, and (ii) how international law has been reflected in post-Soviet Russian state practice. The essay presents some of the weaknesses in Mälksoo’s answers to these questions, including the disproportionate weight given to some explanatory factors and, by extension, the omission of others. It also argues, inspired by Martti Koskenniemi, for the importance of acknowledging “international law as a political project” in order to enable it to function both as an instrument for advancing various claims and as a relatively autonomous formal technique.

Involuntary Resistance
- 2024
-
In: International Journal of Politics, Culture, and Society. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 0891-4486 .- 1573-3416. ; 37:1, s. 77-97
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This paper problematizes the notion of “intent” through the concept of “involuntary resistance”. Departing from the narratives of employees in nursing homes in Sweden during the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 and 2021, we suggest that neoliberal norms and a local management that capitalizes on social hierarchies (sex, age, class, etc.) were the context of the strong biopolitical state management that occurred due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The friction between different forms of governing became a seedbed for an involuntary resistance with an unclear intent against the state recommendations. This sheds light upon the need to (re)frame the current dominance of specific types of knowledge that are constructed in the field of resistance. We suggest that new paths of thought are needed—within social sciences—that work towards a wider conceptualizing of resistance, which embraces practices that lie outside the common thought of dissent.

Law and Politics in the International Society
- 2019
-
Book (other academic/artistic)abstract
- International law and international politics are closely linked. Despite this, the phenomena are most often studied in isolation, not only within the sub-fields of e.g. International Law and International Politics but also within multi- or interdisciplinary fields such as Global Studies, International Studies, International Relations, Peace and Conflict Studies, Peace as well as Peace and Development Studies. This is an unfortunate state of affairs, as the understanding of today"s increasingly globalized international society then becomes compartmentalized and, by extension, fractured and incomplete. The starting point in this book is that international law must be understood in its political context and that international politics must be understood in its legal context. With the ultimate aim of seeking to understand law and politics in the current international society, this book contains theoretical discussions of the entanglements between law and politics as well as analyses of a number of international political and legal issues. The book not only introduces the most productive theories of international law and politics existing today, but it also seeks to integrate some of them into a multi-disciplinary framework to study law and politics in the current international society. The book also introduces a method for practical legal problem-solving: "the method of social welfare". More detailed analyses are provided of, among other things, (the differences between) American and European foreign policy, human rights, humanitarian intervention and the responsibility to protect. The various issues are analyzed from historical, contemporary and forward-looking perspectives.

Legal Pluralism, Gendered Discourses and Hybridity in Land-Titling Practices in Cambodia
- 2017
-
In: Journal of law and society (Print). - : Wiley-Blackwell. - 0263-323X .- 1467-6478. ; 44:2, s. 220-227
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This article describes and analyses the tensions, ambivalence, and hybridity that prevail in the nexus between discourses of gender and the legal pluralism of the new, formalized, and customary ways of handling land titles. Based on empirical research in Cambodia, it reveals a number of mechanisms, challenges, and inconsistencies in the practice of land-titling. Foremost, the practice of titling seems to be highly informed by local discourses of marriage, family, gender, and age, which all affect to whom land is assigned; this leaves a hybrid construction in the nexus between statutory law and customary practices. The article departs from this observation and adds three contributions on a theoretical level to existing research: by incorporating the dimensions of discourse analysis and legal hybridity, by linking the concept of legal pluralism to the process of hybridization, and by introducing the notion of hybridity of implementation as a supplement to hybridity of law.
