Deconstructing Political Orthodoxies on Insurgent and Terrorist Sanctuaries 1
Critics of the War on Terror have pointed to the futility of waging war on a tactic. Its emphasis on denying “sanctuary” and “safe havens” to terrorists, however, has also been informed by a political discourse that privileges the static, physical characteristics of refuge and the significance of state and territory in its provision. Locational issues have been exceptionally problematic, suggesting there is a need for deeper and more textured und…
Protected Status, Sacred Sites, Black Holes and Human Agents
The rhetoric following 11 September 2001 was full of talk of operations and battles that would be fought out of the public view, in an effort to prepare voting publics for a conflict of indeterminate scope, duration, and indeed, of place. Locational issues were quickly made central to the new war. ‘Sanctuaries’, ‘safe havens’, ‘operating environments’, ‘enabling environments’: these were the buzzwords for the long war. They were not new terms of …
Denial of Sanctuary
The war on terror's emphasis on denying sanctuary and safe havens to terrorists has placed a premium on physical territory, from mountain caves and frontier hideouts to the bordered world of modern states.Denial of Sanctuaryhighlights the limits of conventional thinking on the subject, and suggests new approaches to understanding this complex and misunderstood feature of modern conflict. Critics of the war on terror have pointed to the futility o…

Denial-of-Resource Operations and NPFL Radio Dominance in the Liberian Civil War
There has been limited scholarly analysis of former Liberian President Charles Taylor's manipulation of radio broadcasting, or of the extensive use of propaganda by his National Patriotic Front of Liberia (NPFL) during the country's enormously destructive 1990–97 war. Scholars and writers of the conflict have noted these issues in passing, but they have presumed NPFL control over nation-wide mass media and communications, without explaining the c…
Terrorist Sanctuaries and Bosnia-Herzegovina
This article argues that a model of terrorism and terrorist sanctuaries rooted in post-9/11 strategic thought and the Global War on Terror is inadequate to the study of terrorism in Bosnia and the Balkans. It addresses a series of conventional assumptions regarding Bosnia-Herzegovina's status as a putative terrorist sanctuary, based on a reading of post-war ethnic politics and political architecture. This assessment turns on the basic notion that…
