    Recent years have witnessed a resurgence of interest in indigenous, traditional and customary approaches to peace-making in the context of civil wars. Supporters claim that indigenous approaches to peacemaking are participatory and relationship-focused, and that peaceful outcomes have a higher chance of community adherence than template-style international peace interventions effected through the `liberal peace'. Using historical and contemporary examples, this article assesses the feasibility of a complementary relationship between customary and Western forms of peace-making.

    Diante da problemática dos grandes projetos ou projetos de desenvolvimento , cada vez mais comuns à realidade contemporânea de diversos países que se pretendem em votos de crescimento econômico, tornase coerente questionar como vivem e se adequam os diversos grupos sociais que são abruptamente inseridos em contextos de políticas interventivas ao meio-ambiente, que transformam dinâmicas históricas, cotidianas, rompendoas e retratando-as num novo cenário de desenvolvimento.

    Land tenure reform policy has been affected by many different types of decentralization, but the literature has rarely explicitly addressed the implications of this. The paper provides a review of how the issues of decentralization are linked to land tenure reform in theory and practice. Begins with clarifying some key terms, then looks at contending perspectives on decentralization and how these relate to the UNDP’s pillars of democratic governance.

    Abstract: "While international humanitarian access in Burma has opened up
    over the past decade and a half, the ongoing debate regarding the appropriate
    relationship between politics and humanitarian assistance remains unresolved.
    This debate has become especially limiting in regards to protection
    measures for internally displaced persons (IDPs) which are increasingly seen
    to fall within the mandate of humanitarian agencies. Conventional IDP
    protection frameworks are biased towards a top-down model of politicallyaverse

    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
    "Twenty years after the Burmese junta gunned down pro-democracy protesters, violations of human rights and humanitarian law in eastern Burma are more widespread and systematic than ever. Ten years after the Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement were submitted, the international response in eastern Burma remains largely ineffective in dealing with a predatory governing regime.

    Much of what is happening in the conflict zones of
    eastern Burma is difficult to capture with photos, video
    and reports. It is a slow and insidious strangulation of the
    population rather than an all-out effort to crush them...

    Burma/Myanmar has suffered
    from two decades of mine
    warfare by both the State Peace
    and Development Council and
    ethnic-based insurgents. There
    are no humanitarian demining
    programmes within the country.
    It is no surprise that those states
    in Burma/Myanmar with the most
    mine pollution are the highest
    IDP- and refugee-producing
    states. Antipersonnel mines
    planted by both government
    forces and ethnic armed groups
    injure and kill not only enemy
    combatants but also their own

    Abstract:
    "Decades of neglect and abuses by the Burmese government have decimated the health of the
    peoples of Burma, particularly along her eastern frontiers, overwhelmingly populated by
    ethnic minorities such as the Shan. Vast areas of traditional Shan homelands have been
    systematically depopulated by the Burmese military regime as part of its counter-insurgency
    policy, which also employs widespread abuses of civilians by Burmese soldiers, including
    rape, torture, and extrajudicial executions. These abuses, coupled with Burmese government

    Since the end of September 2008, SPDC and DKBA troops have begun preparing for what KHRG researchers expect to be a renewed offensive against KNU/KNLA-controlled areas in Pa'an District. These activities match a similar increase in joint SPDC-DKBA operations in Dooplaya District further south where these groups have conducted attacks against villagers and KNU/KNLA targets over the past couple of weeks.
