SUMMARY:The Annual Senator George J. Mitchell Peace Lecture 2022
DESCRIPTION:Human Rights\, Justice and Negotiating Peace with Terrorists: The Case of Afghanistan \nSpeaker: Nader Nadery (Asser Institute\, Center for International and European Law) \nChair: Professor Richard English (Queen’s University Belfast) \n  \nThe Lecture \nOn December 4\, 2001 a peace agreement for a post Taliban government was signed in Bonn\, Germany. The accord was facilitated by the UN after US and collation forces launched a military operation against the Taliban in response to the 9/11 terrorist attack of the United States. Within a month the Taliban’s first rule ended and Afghanistan embarked on a new path of stability\, democracy and constitutional rule where rights and freedom of its citizen was promised to be protected and promoted. \nIn two years Taliban that were considered defeated\, were provided safe havens across the Durand line\, regrouped and begin to launch two decades of deadly insurgency against Afghan government and NATO forces in the country. Finally the US and Taliban signed a agreement on Feb 29\, 2020. The agreement known as the US-Taliban Doha agreement was negotiated for over two years and in the absence of the then Afghan government. The direct talks between the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan delegation and the Taliban were one of the four provisions of the US-Taliban Doha agreement. \nOn September 12\, 2020\, the intra-Afghan Peace Negotiation began in Doha capital of the State of Qatar. The two large delegations of 21 members each\, met to find a peaceful settlement after nearly two decades of conflict. However\, the US-Taliban negotiation changed the political and military realities of the country and as a consequence incentives for a political settlement within the newly created political and military reality\, has reduced significantly in Taliban. \nThe two sides negotiated for 11 months until the Islamic Republic government collapsed on August 15\, 2021. \nWith the collapse of the republic\, most of the gains in the field of Human Rights protection specially of women rights are being rolled back. There is now a systematic apartheid against Afghan women by the Taliban rulers. \nThe past two decades of international intervention in Afghanistan give many important lessons learned in the field of justice and human rights. This lecture will tell the story of Afghans’ struggle for institutionalization of human rights principles\, their fight for justice and the international community’s failure to side with them. It will tell how it looked like to negotiate peace with a group that was conducting terrorist activities and does not believes in human rights and the citizens freedom. It will tell the history of heartbreak and the story of resilient of people in their quest for dignity and justice in the face of unimaginable adversity. \n  \nThe Speaker \nMr. Nadery was Member of Peace Negotiation Team for Afghanistan Peace Process in Doha (Sep 2020 to Aug 2001). He also served as chairman of the Independent Civil Service Commission of Afghanistan (April 2017 to June 2021).

He was also presidential envoy for protection of freedom of expression. \nMr. Nadery served as director of Afghanistan Research and Evaluation Unit (AREU) 2012 to 2016. AREU is Afghanistan’s globally ranked research institute. He served as Commissioner of the Afghan Independent Human Rights Commission (AIHRC)2004-2012. \nPrior to his appointment at the AIHRC Mr. Nadery served as the director of Afghanistan programs of Global Rights\, Partners for Justice ( 2002 to 2004). He is also the founder and was chairman of the Free and Fair Election Foundation of Afghanistan (domestic election observation body). He also served as the Spokesperson for the Emergency Loya Jerga (Grand Assembly) that elected head of transitional government in 2002. During this time Mr. Nadery was also elected as a delegate for the ELJ and served as representative of civil society. He represented Afghan youth at the main UN peace talks for Afghanistan in the Bonn Conference in 2001\, where the Post-Taliban interim government was formed. \nMr. Nadery co-founded Afghan Civil Society Forum\, and foundation for civil society and culture. \nHe has written extensively on politics\, human rights\, women rights and democracy in Afghanistan. Mr. Nadery thought constitutional law at the American University of Afghanistan in 2012. \nHe was member of Global Agenda Council on Fragile States of World Economic Forum.

SUMMARY:Conflict Graffiti: From Revolution to Gentrification
DESCRIPTION:John Lennon is Associate Professor of English at the University of South Florida. His research interests span across working-class literature\, social movements and film\, and is principally concerned with how marginalised individuals exert a politicised voice in collectivised actions. He is author of Boxcar Politics: The Hobo in Literature and Culture 1869-1956 (UMASS Press\, 2014) and co-editor of Working Class Literature(s): Historical and International Perspectives Volume I and II. \nHis newest book\, Conflict Graffiti: From Revolution to Gentrification (University of Chicago Press\, 2021)\, dives into the many permutations of graffiti in conflict zones—ranging from the protest graffiti of the Black Lives Matter movement in Ferguson and the Tahrir Square demonstrations in Egypt\, to the tourist-attraction murals on the Israeli Separation Wall and the street art that has rebranded Detroit and post-Katrina New Orleans. \nFor more details contact Professor Ramona Wray\, QUB\, on r.wray@qub.ac.uk

SUMMARY:The climate crisis and ensuring a just transition beyond carbon
DESCRIPTION:This event will take place at Queen’s University Belfast and will involve panel talks and discussions\, followed by a Q&A session on the crucial role of trade unions in climate action. \nWith growing awareness of the climate crisis\, the focus is now shifting towards climate action and how to transition societies beyond their dependence on fossil fuels. For some this means that this transition is now inevitable. However\, whether it will be “just” is not. This discussion will examine the crucial role of the trades’ union movement (where the idea of a ‘just transition’ originated) in contributing to the political process of managing this transition in a manner that is inclusive\, democratic and where no community or section of society or the workforce is left behind. \nThis event will be led by John Barry\, Professor of Green Political Economy and Co-director of the Centre for Sustainability at Queen’s. Panel members will include Hilary Wainwright\, University of Bradford\, Susan Fitzgerald\, Unite the Union’s Regional Industrial Officer for Northern Ireland\, and Dr. Stiofán Ó Nualláin\, co-director of Trademark Belfast\, the Irish Congress of Trade Unions political education and anti-sectarian unit.

The Foster chair is the only endowed chair of Irish History in Britain\, and is attached to Hertford\, the Oxford college with the strongest Irish associations. He has broad interests in Ireland between the seventeenth and twenty-first centuries\, especially its politics\, culture and intellectual life. He currently holds a Leverhulme Major Research Award which will enable him to spend two years researching and writing a study of the impact of the penal laws on eighteenth-century Ireland. \nProfessor McBride grew up in County Armagh\, and his interest in History flowed naturally from the political instability and intensity of Northern Ireland in the late twentieth century. He was educated at Jesus College\, Oxford and University College London\, and was awarded a research fellowship at Corpus Christi College\, Cambridge (1993-96). Between 2000 and 2016 he taught at King’s College London. \nHis books include The Siege of Derry in Ulster Protestant Mythology (1997) and Scripture Politics: Ulster Presbyterians and Irish Radicalism in the Late Eighteenth Century (1998)\, both short-listed for the Christopher Ewart-Biggs Literary Prize; and Eighteenth-Century Ireland: The Isle of Slaves (2009). His most recent publication is The Princeton History of Modern Ireland (2016)\, edited with Richard Bourke. Professor McBride is currently completing work on Irish Political Writings I\, a volume for the new Cambridge Edition of the Works of Jonathan Swift. \nSince 2004 Professor McBride has been convener of the Conference of Irish Historians in Britain which he now organises jointly with Dr Caoimhe Nic Dháibhéid. This conference was founded by Marianne by Marianne Elliott and Roy Foster and has held biennial meetings for 40 years. It provides the main forum for Irish historians working on this island to present their work. Further details can be found on the conference website (http://irishhistoriansinbritain.org/)\, which also contains twenty-two short pieces written to commemorate the centenary of 1916. \nProfessor McBride has presented his research to a wide range of audiences\, from the Presbyterian Historical Society in Belfast to Coiste na n-Iarchimí\, an ex-prisoners organization consisting of former members of the Provisional IRA\, in South Armagh. As part of Derry’s year as city of culture (2013) he organized a conference on the history and legacy of the Siege of Derry in collaboration with the Apprentice Boys. He has been interviewed for a variety of BBC Northern Ireland programmes\, and was presenter and consultant on a one-hour documentary entitled Forgotten Revolutionary: Francis Hutcheson\, first broadcast on BBC2 on 25 July 2012; he was also a panelist on the In Our Time episode on A Modest Proposal.
