DESCRIPTION:Alors que la guerre civile fait rage en Syrie\, la population c
 ivile est en situation précaire et ne peut échapper à la violence. Comment
  devrions-nous interpréter cette crise? Quels discours dominants encadrent
  le conflit et comment empêchent-ils la coopération et la protection des c
 ivils? Quels mécanismes de protection juridiques restent disponibles? Quel
 s espaces existent ou peuvent être aménagés pour la solidarité et l'action
  internationale pour protéger des populations vulnérables?\n\nProgramme\n
 \n(en anglais seulement) As civil war continues to rage in Syria\, civilia
 n populations have been left without adequate protection and no safe escap
 e from the violence. The brutality of this civil war has once again placed
  the UN system in crisis as the limits of international protection are bro
 ught into focus. While Russia\, France\, and the U.S. seem to be on a coll
 ision course in a proxy war being fought in Syria based on differing allia
 nces and geopolitical strategies\, recent attempts to restrain the veto po
 wer of the permanent 5 members of the UN Security Council in the face of m
 ass atrocities has added a new level of complexity. Against this backdrop 
 of worsening international relations and a UN deadlock\, Syrian civilians 
 continue to suffer and die in conditions of prolonged precarity.\n\nSome o
 f the questions that will be addressed are: How should we interpret the cr
 ises? What are the dominant narratives that frame the conflict and how are
  they preventing cooperation and protection of civilians? What legal mecha
 nisms are still available for protection? What spaces exist or can be open
 ed for solidarity and international action to contribute to the protection
  of vulnerable populations?\n\nPanelists: Prof. Tanya Monforte\, visiting 
 O'Brien Fellow in Residence (American University in Cairo)\; Prof. Frédéri
 c Mégret\, Canada Research Chair in the Law of Human Rights and Legal Plur
 alism (91ºÚÁÏÍø)\; and Prof. Stefan Winter\, a scholar of the history of the
  Middle East and the Maghreb (UQAM)\n\n \n
