L'Europa e i conflitti armati
Prevenzione, difesa nonviolenta e Corpi civili di pace
- Edited by:
- Alberto L'Abate,
- Lorenzo Porta,
As the result of one of the most important conferences held in Italy on the role of the European civil peace corps in the prevention of armed conflicts, this volume collects the contributions of some of the best Italian and international scholars who have dealt with peacekeeping and peace building, constituting an important tool for the dissemination of these themes in high schools and universities according to the provisions of an approved ministerial project. Two introductory interventions by the curators, Alberto L'Abate and Lorenzo Porta, update the volume to the most recent events and at the same time illustrate the guidelines and contradictions of EU policies on conflict prevention and disarmament. A particular section is then dedicated to the Serbian-Albanian conflict in Kosovo and to the risk of a new outbreak of hostilities, analysed through the dialoguing voices of exponents from opposite sides. The premise by Antonio Cassese, former President of the Hague Court for war crimes in the former Yugoslavia and Professor of International Law at the University of Florence, also emphasises the same theme, presenting interesting proposals focused on the role of mediation of the EU. Finally, the volume is completed by the appendices which offer a compendium of the history of Indian non-violence and the Shanti Sena. Documents on the results of the most recent European debate on non-violent resistance, defence and civil intervention in a conflict zone follow.
