"Intervention: Democratizing Infrastructures"
https://doi.org/10.1016/j.polgeo.2021.102378
During the presentation of the masterplan for Anaklia City, a planned smart city and logistics hub at the border between Georgia and the de facto state of Abkhazia, the project CEO, Keti Bochorishvili, highlighted her commitment to the elimination of all barriers that inhibit the smooth flow of investments and commodities and the free movement of those engaged in trading.

This contribution draws on rhythmanalysis and the political economy of assemblage to provide a framework for understanding the productive spatio‐temporal effects of physical violence on urban rhythms. The paper explores how Buenaventura, Colombia's biggest port city, is transformed both by the growth in container turnover, and through recurring, spatial and temporal practices of violence. What role does violence play in the relation between trade‐driven acceleration through the port, and the aquatic, tidal rhythm that historically shaped the city?

Transformations towards “ecological” infrastructures are often highly contested and reproduce social conflict. To enrich the debate on such contested infrastructure expansions, I combine po-litical economy and political ecology approaches with literature on the “politics of operation” and logistics. This paper analyses renewable energy infrastructures within the Mesoamerican Project, which foments the production of transnational territories and implies a growing role of global corporations in local social struggles.

How to rethink authoritarian power in ways that better account for authoritarian connections beyond nation-state boundaries? By reconceptualizing the context in which to analyze authoritarian power, we bring to light transregional authoritarian connections between the secondary port cities Aqaba/Jordan and Buenaventura/Colombia.

Dossier Innerstaatliche Konflikte
Ein Meilenstein bei der Aufarbeitung des Völkermords (1975-79) ist die Verurteilung hochrangiger Repräsentanten der Roten Khmer. Dadurch wurde die Geschichte des Genozids einer breiten Öffentlichkeit bekannt. Die Bevölkerung leidet unter Traumatisierung, politischer Repression, Landraub, Korruption und einem schwachen Justizsystem.

It is against this background of a long and diverse history of migration to South Africa that we seek to engage in the evolution of the South African refugee protection regime linked to the migration management discourse.

Bundeszentrale für Politische Bildung - Schwerpunkt Sahel
Der Sahel gehört weltweit zu den gefährlichsten Konfliktregionen. Die Covid-19-Pandemie wirkt dort wie ein Katalysator auf bestehende Konflikte. Das Aktionsgebiet dschihadistischer Gruppen weitet sich auf die gesamte Region aus. Die Zahl der Binnenvertriebenen und Flüchtlinge nimmt dramatisch zu. Die innenpolitischen Spannungen verschärfen sich.

Onlinedossier "Innerstaatliche Konflikte"
Die ägyptische Regierung geht hart gegen Oppositionelle und Kritiker vor. Auf anhaltende Terroranschläge auf der Sinai-Halbinsel und in Kairo reagiert sie vor allem militärisch. Die wirtschaftliche Misere, einer der Hauptgründe für die Konfliktanfälligkeit des Landes, verschärft sich durch die Covid-19-Pandemie weiter.

Konfliktdossier "Innnerstaatliche Konflikte"
Seit dem Amtsantritt von Premierminister Abiy Ahmed Ali leidet Äthiopien am "Fluch der Transformation". Angesichts seines mutigen Reformkurses fürchten die alten Eliten um ihre Pfründe und lassen ethno-nationalistische Konflikte im Vielvölkerstaat eskalieren. Eine Heuschreckenplage und Covid-19 wirken als Konfliktbeschleuniger.

After decades of irrelevance, the 2011 regime changes in Egypt, Libya and Tunisia stimulated hope that political parties would eventually strengthen their importance across North Africa, as in the projected future democracies the varieties of opinions across the citizenries were expected to be needed represented better in the political processes. Local as well as international organisations engaged in tailormade programmes for the setup and support of democratic and inclusive political parties.

This article adds the case of Egypt to the themed section’s overall research interest, examining the extent to which the Egyptian government has reacted in its migration policies to incentives provided by the EU. It shows that Egypt’s 2016 ‘Anti-Smuggling Law’ (ASL), praised as a ‘milestone’, was crucial for the regime’s further power consolidation. Building on Tsourapas’s concept of ‘migration interdependence’, Egypt’s migration policy rather fulfils the purpose as ‘dramaturgical act’, aimed more at pleasing an international audience than improving migrants’ living conditions.

Migrant civil society has played an influential role in the deliberations of the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration (GCM). Setbacks notwithstanding, this influence can be found in the final document regarding the language used as well as the inclusion of civil society’s agenda and policy goals. The challenge for migrant civil society now is to get access to and eventually influence the complex process of monitoring and implementation of the GCM goals. This complexity is just one of several obstacles for meaningful civil society involvement.

The term civil society covers a variety of organisational forms, levels of operation, and advocacy. This also holds true for the spectrum of civil society organisations in the field of migration and development. This chapter discusses the role of the various actors, ranging from Hometown Associations (HTAs) and diaspora organisations to transnational advocacy networks and global migrant civil society.

This paper will analyze a process that attempts to democratize the governance of migration within and from Asia through connectivity from below: the Asian Inter-Parliamentary Caucus on Labour Migration. The caucus was initiated by the Migrant Forum in Asia (MFA), the major regional network of migrants’ rights organizations, in 2007. Since 2008, meetings have been held in parallel to the ASEAN Inter- Parliamentary Assembly (AIPA).

MIGRACIÓN y DESARROLLO
La emergente gobernanza mundial de la migración se caracteriza por su fragmentación en términos de instituciones, normativas y convenciones subyacentes. La Organización Interna- cional para las Migraciones (oim) ocupa un lugar peculiar dentro de este marco: por un lado, hasta hace muy poco se había situado fuera de la Organización de las Naciones Unidas (onu), se considera un organismo «no normativo» y ha actuado principalmente como un proveedor de servicios basado en beneficios para los Estados nacionales.

MIGRACIÓN y DESARROLLO
The emerging global governance of migration is characterized by its fragmentation in terms of institutions, underlying norms and conventions. The International Organization for Migration (iom) holds a peculiar place within this framework: On the one side, it has been si- tuated outside the United Nations System until very recently, considers itself a «non-normative» agency, and has mostly acted as a profit-based service provider for nation-states.

While Jordan is one of the main targets of US and European attempts at ‘democracy promotion’, it also demonstrates a remarkably stable authoritarian system. Existing literature on ‘democracy promotion’ however mostly fails to see a connection between authoritarian reinforcement and external efforts at moral intervention. The dominant approaches to the study of ‘democracy promotion’ widely suffer from a narrow focus on developing policy recommendations and/or from a lack of empirical research.

External attempts at “democracy promotion” are one of the defining features of global liberalism. A core principle guiding this Essential Reading is that the topic at hand needs to be unequivocally situated against the backdrop of a critical analysis of liberal thought. A main shortcoming of much of the mainstream literature on “democracy promotion” is the tendency to ignore related fundamental questions.
