Kosova question and international diplomacy (1991-1999): Predicting the conflict ; Çështja e Kosovës dhe Diplomacia Ndërkombëtare (1991-1999): Një konflikt i parashikueshëm
International audience ; The arrangements offered by international community as solutions to Yugoslav dissolution process have significantly affected the development of the Kosovo conflict. These policies failed to produce consensus between the parties in conflict, instead, as the paper demonstrate, they played the role of a catalyst in the initiation of the conflict. This paper, by offering a detailed reconstruction of the process by which the international community tried to settle the Kosovo case, demonstrates how the dynamics of the conflict interacted dynamically with international community attitudes and policies towards the case. The paper discusses the attitudes and policies of international community toward the Kosovo case underlining its attachment to traditional prerequisites of international order instead of inherited causes of conflict. There are three important events that underline the interference of international community in the case of Kosovo before the war: the Conference on Yugoslavia that followed up the creation of the Badinter Committee, the Dayton Agreement and the Rambouillet Talks. These events are explained in details in three separate sections since they have immediate implications for the situation in Kosovo and consequently for the development of the conflict. We first discuss the contribution of existing normative framework to models of international community behavior and their effects in the case of Kosovo conflict following with the reaction of the conflicting parties towards offered arrangements. Both moments are assumed to be of importance in providing a larger picture in the understanding of the outgrowth of Kosovo conflict.

The Power of Organizing without Organizations in Thai Society: Case Study of the New Social Movement without Leading Organizations ; พลังกลุ่มไร้สังกัดในสังคมไทย: กรณีศึกษาว่าด้วยการเคลื่อนไหวทางสังคมแนวใหม่แบบไร้องค์กรนำ
The objective of this article is to bring the conceptual idea in "Here Comes Everybody: The Power of Organizing without Organizations," written by the communication scientist-Clay Shirkey whose scholarly interests are on social change phenomena and he proposes social network's system after the emergence of WEB 2.0 which impacts on the dynamics of new social movement, and it changes the way social organizations are formed. The framework to understand phenomena in Thai society by three-level process in the formation of social organization is as follows: 1) Sharing, 2) Cooperation, and 3) Collective Action. In this article, four case studies in Thailand are investigated. The finding shows this new social tool is not only able to empower and help ordinary people to advocate their individual and communal problems through story-telling but also potentially allows members of the intra-network to connect and exchange information to each other. Furthermore, this tool fairly helps facilitating thesocial organizations at two prior levels. Nevertheless, there're still challenges for social organizations to transform their action into "collective action" level, and to sustainably maintain the leverage of groups. ; บทความชิ้นนี้มีจุดมุ่งหมายเพื่อทดลองนำข้อเสนอจากหนังสือเรื่อง Here Comes Everybody: The Power of Organizing Without Organizations โดย เคลย์ เชอร์กี้ นักการสื่อสารเพื่อการเปลี่ยนแปลงทางสังคม ที่กล่าวถึงโลกของสังคมเครือข่ายภายหลังการเกิดขึ้นของระบบเว็บ 2.0 จนก่อให้เกิดผลกระทบต่อพลวัตกลุ่มทางสังคมแบบใหม่ รวมถึงการจัดตั้งกลุ่มองค์กรทางสังคม (Organization) ที่เปลี่ยนแปลงไปจากเดิมมาใช้มาเป็นกรอบในการมองปรากฏการณ์ในสังคมไทยผ่านเครื่องมือที่สามารถสร้างผลกระทบต่อการรวมกลุ่มแบบใหม่ 3 ระดับ คือ 1) การแบ่งปัน (sharing) 2) การประสานงานกัน (cooperative) และ 3) การเคลื่อนไหวเป็นกลุ่ม (Collective Action) โดยวิเคราะห์ผ่าน 4 กรณีศึกษาในสังคมไทย พบว่าเครื่องมือทางสังคมแบบใหม่นี้ได้ช่วย "เสริมพลัง" (Empower) และ "ขยายเสียง" (Advocate) ให้กับ "ผู้คนสามัญ" (Ordinary People) ในการบอกเล่าเรื่องราวความเดือดร้อนของตนและชุมชน ทั้งยังมีศักยภาพในการเชื่อมต่อและแลกเปลี่ยนข้อมูลภายในเครือข่ายร่วมกัน จากการศึกษายังพบว่า เครื่องมือนี้เอื้อให้เกิดการรวมกลุ่มทางสังคมที่สำคัญในสองระดับแรก แต่ยังขาดศักยภาพที่จะไปสู่ "การเคลื่อนไหวเป็นกลุ่ม" (Collective Action) ได้รวมถึงการรักษาพลังของการรวมกลุ่มให้เกิดความยั่งยืนยังเป็นข้อท้าทายอย่างยิ่ง
