Resumo: A violência contra a mulher é um debate antigo e possui reivindicações de mulheres, de forma organizada, há mais de um século. Porém, sua introdução como importante tema na agenda internacional foi recente e dependeu de um grande esforço de grupos de mulheres. Assim, esse artigo pretende analisar como os movimentos de mulheres, desde 1945, com a criação da Organização das Nações Unidas, influenciaram a incorporação da problemática da violência contra a mulher, principalmente em períodos de conflitos armados, pelo sistema internacional de proteção da pessoa humana, bem como a observância dessas diretrizes pelos Estados e Organizações Internacionais. O argumento aqui apresentado é que apenas a partir da década de 1990, com as Transnational Advocacy Networks (TANs) efetivadas e pela consideração dos Direitos das Mulheres como um Direito Humano fundamental, foi que a temática recebeu a valoração que merecia na agenda internacional. Esse impacto escoou também para o âmbito dos conflitos armados, onde as mulheres são as mais impactadas e vulnerabilizadas. Portanto, diversas normas foram criadas a fim de eliminar a violência de gênero, e conclui-se que a principal falha se mantém na inobservância dessas diretrizes, tanto a nível estatal como internacional.

What explains variation in the tactical choices of non-governmental organizations (NGOs)? This article uses network autocorrelation models to establish how the tactical choices of climate change NGOs are shaped by their embeddedness in transnational advocacy networks. Specifically, it finds that NGOs are more likely to adopt protest tactics when adjacent organizations – those with whom they have direct ties – have already done so. The choices of equivalent organizations – those that occupy similar relational roles in the network – do not appear to be influential. Qualitative evidence also shows that NGOs are affected by relational pressure from their peers, which alters their perception of costs and benefits. These findings enhance understanding of how networks influence actors’ behavior and offer insights into the relational processes that generate protest in global politics.

The Relationship

Abstract This article focuses on the relationship between Alevis and the Turkish and German states. It does so by examining the Turkish Alevi Opening (2009–2010) and the German Islam Conference (2006–present), two unprecedented official platforms aimed at improving Alevis’ political participation. The study asks why such state-sponsored initiatives came into existence in Turkey and Germany, and why the German Islam Conference has proven more successful from the perspective of Alevis. It argues that even though the diffusion of EU norms and pressure from transnational advocacy networks have increased awareness regarding the Alevi issue, domestic factors have been more salient in the emergence and outcome of these initiatives in both countries.
