The Canadian International Institute of Applied Negotiation (CIIAN) in collaboration with the Canadian Foreign Policy Journal (CFPJ) is producing a special issue on the topic of Canada and International Mediation: What Role in 2012 and Beyond?
With recent demands for freedom of expression, accountable government and equitable economic opportunity and benefits in countries throughout the Middle East; the continued threat of terrorism; a fragile and slowly recovering global economy; trade frictions; increased instability due to global warming and pressures on ecological systems; and predicted shortages of essential resources; the next ten years will be very different from anything we've seen in the past. The international stage is rapidly changing and Canada is no longer seen by some as an impartial broker of peace.
Canada has had some notable foreign policy achievements in the past including our pioneering work in peacekeeping during the Suez Crisis, developing the Responsibility to Protect (R2P) norm that aims to prevent mass atrocities such as genocide and ethnic cleansing, and former Foreign Affairs minister Lloyd Axworthy’s efforts to successfully create the Ottawa Convention – an international treaty banning the use of land mines.
However, the time is ripe for Canada to re-examine its international role, reflect on its performance in conflict resolution, prevention and mediation and to assess its peacemaking services. This special issue will examine if and how Canada can become a leader in promoting mediated solutions to global and regional problems over the coming ten years.
Selected papers will be edited and published as a special issue of Canadian Foreign Policy Journal in 2012. We welcome submissions from a variety of disciplines focusing on case studies, comparative analysis, policy processes, theory and historical studies of specific Canadian efforts. Junior scholars, practitioners and representatives of civil society are strongly encouraged to submit a paper.
Submission Procedure and Deadline
Draft papers must be submitted by October 31st, 2011. Authors will be notified by email if their paper will be considered for publication. The Journal is committed to a full peer review process.
