Development approaches for preventing violent extremism
Remote Qualitative Fieldwork in Conflict-Affected Mindanao
This paper examines a partnered approach to remote qualitative fieldwork implemented in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM), a conflict-affected region in the southern Philippines where foreign researchers are subject to travel restrictions. Through collaboration between Deakin University, Australia and Mindanao State University-Iligan Institute of Technology (MSU-IIT), we designed and supported 41 focus group discussions …
Everyday peace
This article proposes everyday peace as a strengths-based community development framework with significant ability to empower local peacebuilding agency. Most peacebuilding focusses on strengthening social cohesion, and thus starts by searching for common ground, bringing together those who can quickly move toward local negotiated outcomes. After serious intercommunal or sectarian violence, however, this may be neither safe nor possible. By contr…

Tourism in Russia’s Altai Republic
The government of Russia's Altai Republic encourages tourism for local socio-economic development. The year 2020 brought 2.2 million visitors to the Altai Republic, an ecologically pristine but economically depressed region, with a population of just 220,200. Ethnic Russians constitute a majority of the Altai Republic's citizenry, but Indigenous groups make up 34 percent of the population. Using surveys and interviews, this study analyzed percept…
The Rohingya repatriation myth
Almost a million Rohingya refugees remain trapped in refugee camps in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh, more than six years after being driven from Myanmar. The stated policy of the international community remains voluntary repatriation. This paper lays out our argument that the narrative of repatriation is a myth, not a genuine possibility any time in the next decade or more. Our central argument is that full repatriation of the whole refugee population …
Middle powers as ‘peacemaking entrepreneurs’ in Myanmar’s peace process 2011–2021
Middle powers were visible actors in Myanmar’s peace-donor landscape, from the beginning of that country’s peace process in 2011 until the 2021 coup. Considering Myanmar’s longstanding dependency on China and generally difficult relationship with larger powers, this appears to be significant. However, the literature on middle powers remains incapacitated by a definitional opacity that makes application of the term difficult, despite consistent re…
Perspectives on violent extremism from development–humanitarian NGO staff in Southeast Asia
Violent extremism (VE) significantly affects many contexts within which international development–humanitarian non-governmental organisations (NGOs) operate in Southeast Asia. Recent preventing/countering violent extremism (P/CVE) models highlight the need for community-based preventative activities; however, there has been little research to date examining the understandings of international development–humanitarian NGOs regarding VE in their co…
Development NGO responses to countering violent extremism and hate
This paper surveys the state of knowledge regarding development and humanitarian non-government organisation (NGO) responses to preventing and countering violent extremism (P/CVE). As well as delineating the nexus and shared objectives between P/CVE and development/humanitarian NGO frameworks, it outlines a reframing of the concept of VE into violent and hateful extremism (VHE), as a shift to a more nuanced understanding which addresses inherent …
Conflict sensitivity/Do No Harm (DNH) in development, humanitarian, and peacebuilding practice - reflections and emerging trends [special issue editorial]
Conflict sensitivity/Do No Harm (DNH) through an everyday peace lens
This paper examines conflict-sensitivity/DNH through the lens of everyday peace. It draws on data from a local non-government organisation program working on development and peacebuilding between Rohingya Muslim and Rakhine Buddhist communities in Rakhine State, Myanmar. That program is framed around the everyday peace concept, the social practices commonly adopted by ordinary people as they seek to get on with daily life in ways that minimise ri…
Everyday peace as a theory to explain victims’ peacemaking actions in intimate partner violence situations
This paper assesses the transferability of the concept of everyday peace, developed in the conflict and peace studies literature, to practices utilised by people experiencing intimate partner violence (IPV). The relevance of everyday peace to IPV is assessed by mapping typologies of the concept against behaviour that victims implement to manage and survive abusive relationships. To collect these data, experienced family violence practitioners wer…
Strengthening everyday peace formation after ethnic cleansing
The concept of everyday peace largely draws on research that, to date, has sought more to explain observed social practices than inform peace interventions. This paper presents a case study of an attempt to operationalise the concept into local non-governmental organisation (NGO) programming, seeking to strengthen the formation of everyday peace between Rohingya and Rakhine communities in Myanmar after recent ethnic cleansing. This is believed to…
Everyday peace
‘Everyday peace’ entered the literature over the past two decades, referring to ordinary people navigating everyday life in deeply divided societies, in ways that minimise conflict. Most cited is Mac Ginty’s ‘conceptual scoping’ paper, which culminates in a typology of social practices he argues constitutes everyday peace. Drawing on additional, detailed ethnographic studies, this paper proposes a re-think, presenting a total of eight everyday pe…
The political economy of Norwegian peacemaking in Myanmar’s peace process
Norway is widely accepted as a global leader in peacemaking, due to its lengthy track record of involvement in complex peace processes. Its predilection for peacemaking is usually interpreted as a form of ‘status-seeking’ by a smaller state, aimed at enhancing Norway’s influence and reputation in the international system. However, this perception offers a limited view and obscures other motivations that drive Norway to peacemaking. Aimed at addre…
Whose analysis? Trial of a new participatory conflict analysis for Do No Harm/conflict-sensitive development planning
‘Do No Harm’ or ‘conflict-sensitivity’ has been mainstreamed into the planning and implementation of development-humanitarian interventions in conflict-affected situations. An umbrella term encompassing a range of frameworks and tools, all approaches involve analysing conflict dynamics in order to minimise negative impacts and maximise support for positive change. Most, however, treat conflict analysis as largely technical, requiring external exp…
Myanmar's 'Rohingya' Conflict
Myanmar's Rohingya conflict is arguably the most sensitive and complex issue facing the country, both in terms of the extent of physical and social destruction, and the impact on Myanmar's domestic reform and international standing. The scale of human suffering is mind-numbing, the reactions of Aung San Suu Kyi and the Myanmar authorities baffling. However, too much international commentary is reductionist, flattening multiparty and multifaceted …
Recent Violence and Significance
This chapter illustrates the tripartite nature of this conflict, by exploring the interrelated outbreaks of serious violence in Rakhine State, Myanmar over the past five years. These are the 2012 intercommunal violence between ethnic Rakhine and ‘Rohingya’, the 2015-16 Arakan Army armed insurgency between Rakhine and the Burman-led state, and the 2016-17 insurgency Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army and its backlash, which was primarily between the B…
Complexities, Misconceptions, and Context
This chapter introduces the complexity of Myanmar’s ‘Rohingya’ conflict, and address a series of misconceptions widely held about it in the international community. It discusses the scale of recent violence, extent of displacement and degree of international condemnation, including discussion of Aung San Suu Kyi’s failure to adequately address the conflict. It also expresses serious concern about international advocacy campaigns, arguing many und…
The International Community
This chapter concludes the book by offering a discussion of the role the international community has played, and could play, in both the conflict and conflict resolution. It summarizes the most important findings from the analysis throughout the book, and explores them in the context of the recommendations made by the Kofi Annan-led Advisory Commission on Rakhine State . These recommendation are widely recognized as the best proposals to date tow…
Security Dilemma, Minority Complex, Greed, and Political Economy
This chapter explores the nature of Myanmar’s ‘Rohingya’ conflict against concepts of a demographic security dilemma, an ethnic security dilemma, a dual minority complex, and then the question of the impact of resources through two lenses, the ‘greed thesis’ and the political economy of conflict. It examines Rohingya population growth data, and the tripartite nature of the ethnic security dilemma, which suggests that times of political transition…
Identity and Territory Grievances in Rakhine State
This chapter explores the nature of Myanmar’s ‘Rohingya’ conflict against the two most common non-material ‘grievance’ explanations in the literature, with the aim to highlight how their interplay shapes and reshapes the trajectories of the conflict: grievance based around identity (or ethnicity) and territory. The chapter highlights how the importance of issues of identity driving this conflict helps explain the resistance to the name ‘Rohingya’…
The Rohingya ‘Origin’ Narrative
Chapters Three and Four articulate the competing historical narratives and representations of memory sustaining Myanmar’s ‘Rohingya’ conflict. This chapter examines what the authors designate the Rohingya ‘Origin’ narrative, and interrogates it against the available historical record; the next chapter considers the Rakhine and Burman perspectives. Drawing on the concept of intractable conflict, this chapter commences with an assessment of ‘Rohing…
Rakhine–Burman Narratives
Chapters Three and Four articulate the competing historical narratives and representations of memory sustaining Myanmar’s ‘Rohingya’ conflict. The last chapter examined the Rohingya ‘Origin’ historical narrative; this chapter considers the Rakhine and Burman perspectives, and interrogates them against the available historical record. This chapter documents and analyses three Rakhine—Burman perspectives, which the authors designate: a) the Rakhine…
Myanmar's 'Rohingya' Conflict
Myanmar's Rohingya Muslims have been subject to human rights abuses, been denied citizenship, and most recently, faced ethnic cleansing. Well over half the Rohingya population who use to live in Myanmar have been displaced by violence, with over a million Rohingya refugees now sheltering in Bangladesh. This conflict has become a litmus test for change in Myanmar, a country in transition, and current assessments are far from positive. Whitewashing…

Domains of faith impact
Increasing interest in faith-based international development organisations (FBOs) recently has improved understanding of these agencies. One reason for complex, often contradictory findings is the lack of frameworks analysing the interactions of worldviews on organisational structures, processes, and behaviours of agencies, and development outcomes. We utilise Lincoln's (2003. Holy Terrors: Thinking about Religion after September 11. Chicago: Uni…

The MDGs in Myanmar
n\t\t\t\t\tMyanmarMyanmar is a developing country with significant humanitarian needs. It is therefore a country for which achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) should be a high priority. While exact data are difficult to obtain, Myanmar is performing poorly across most of the MDG targets. This is partly an unintended but direct consequence of the international sanctions and concomitant reduced aid flows into Myanmar. Myanmar receives…

L’implication des missionnaires pentecôtistes dans l’aide au développement en Asie du Sud-Est
A noticeable shift has been recently observed in Western-based Pentecostal mission agencies’ activities in mainland Southeast Asia. Where once these organizations avoided a visible priority on social justice as being at odds with their understanding of mission, the funding for and implementation of such programs has increased dramatically for the last two decades. This shift in focus is best understood by considering the motivations for this work…
Development Across Faith Boundaries
Faith-based organisations (FBOs) have long been recognised as having an advantage in delivering programs and interventions amongst communities of the same faith. However, many FBOs today work across a variety of contexts, including with local partners and communities of different faiths. Likewise, secular NGOs and donors are increasingly partnering with faith-based organisations to work in highly-religious communities.Development Across Faith Bou…
