This month, Robert Reilly, author of America on Trial, defends the Founding Fathers against contemporary critics who say that their experiment in republic government was based on Enlightenment thinking— and thus on a rejection of Christianity. On the contrary, Reilly maintains, the Founding was based on philosophical principles that harken back to ancient Greece and Jerusalem: principles that were further developed by Catholic thinkers in the Middle Ages.Robert R.

Through open source information, remote sensing, and existing data, we can have a better sense of how conflict impacts the environment and how it then impacts people depending on the environment, said Wim Zwijnenburg, a Humanitarian Disarmament Project Leader for the Dutch peace organization, PAX, in this week’s Friday Podcast. Wim sat down for an interview with ECSP’s Amanda King at the first International Conference on Environmental Peacebuilding, hosted at the University of California, Irvine, in October 2019. Data Visualization for Advocacy PAX works to improve data visualization, especially information about what’s happening on the ground in conflicts. Drawing on everything from social media and existing models, to satellite imagery from remote sensing platforms, they identify hotspots, see if environmental infrastructure has been hit, and monitor specific incidents. “Eventually,” he said, “we want to show that you can do way more and you can improve the conflict analysis and monitoring with existing means.” One of the most successful examples where data influenced policy was in Iraq. In 2014, the Islamic State took over the large parts of Northern Iraq. It used the environment as a weapon by setting fire to oil wells and sulfur stocks, resulting in release of a plume of SO2 in the air, the hospitalization of 1,000 people, and death of a dozen people. At the same time, they damaged water infrastructure, reducing access to clean water and usable land. Together with the Iraqi Ministry of Environment we published our report showing what was happening in Iraq in terms of environmental pollution and what needs to be done, Zwijnenburg said. Information we’ve been collecting since 2014 helped to advocate for a strong UN resolution to speed up the process for post-conflict environmental assessment, he said, and hopefully save them time and money. Modern Weapons Target Environmental Infrastructure Modern warfare and new weapons are changing military tactics. In Yemen, the Houthis have developed a drone system that can hit targets more than 1,000 kilometers away. Over the last year, in response to daily bombings, the Houthis targeted airports, water filtration stations, and oil facilities in Saudi Arabia. And in September 2019, 25 drones and missiles, likely from Iran, hit the biggest oil processing plant in the world in Saudi Arabia. Given newer weapons’ capabilities, targeting environmental infrastructure has become a way for states and armed groups to pressure others. Zwijnenburg painted a bleak picture of the future, describing a world that must contend with modern warfare and technologies’ long-term environmental consequences, increasing tensions over access to natural resources, and more gruesome technology for attacking others. However, he noted that innovative technologies can help us see the impacts of conflict and may also help us more quickly respond to environmental issues. Since using technologies in new ways gives us more insight into what is happening in conflicts, we can respond faster and hold perpetrators more accountable. What’s more, the ability to visualize the impacts of conflict can also help raise awareness of the links between environmental damage and conflict. “It is empowering communities because people have the ability and the tools to understand what is happening around them,” said Zwijnenburg, “and that information is useful for policy work and political pressure.”

SOAS SU Current Affairs Lecture Series The chaos in Iraq has its roots in the fractured state building project brought about by the occupation of the country. Between 2003 and 2011, Iraq was transformed by a foreign occupation that saw state institutions and power divided between a select few political actors. In this exclusive political arrangement, the Iraqi state ceased to function properly as its governing institutions came under the control of Shia, Sunni and Kurdish political elites who divided state resources between themselves. This political arrangement was in part smashed in June 2014 by the fall of Mosul in Northern Iraq to Islamic State, whose movement shook the political establishment and galvanised the support of an already disgruntled and marginalised population. This event invites former Coalition Provisional Authority officials and experts to discuss the repercussions of the statebuilding project in Iraq. SPEAKERS HENRY HOGGER CMG -Former British diplomat who will discuss institution building in Iraq at the time of the Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA). ANDREW ALDERSON - Director of Economic planning and Development for the Coalition provisional Authority (CPA) South in Basra. Andrew will present on his experiences in Iraq, and is the author of ‘Bankrolling Basra’. PAUL ATTENBOROUGH - A former member of the CPA (South) - he was tasked with looking after the State Owned Enterprise assets in the four Governorates of Southern Iraq. He will discuss some of the aspects of the post-invasion management of the industrial and manufacturing economy and the impact of an ideology on post-conflict reconstruction. Dr HUSAIN al CHALABI - Currently working as a Fellow of the Iraq Energy Institute which advises the Iraqi Ministry of Oil. Dr Husain will dwell on his experiences in Iraq during the past few years and provide a much needed update on the relationship between the state system and the oil sector in Iraq. MEHAIR KATHEM - At present Mehair is studying for a PhD at SOAS. His research explores externally led civil society development and the formation of Iraq’s domestic non-governmental sector from 2003.
