Bringing the transnational into ‘new wars’: the case of islamic state

In her seminal 1998 work on ‘new wars’ Mary Kaldor developed a heuristic framework usefully for understanding the characteristics of armed non-state groups involved in contemporary conflicts. This framework was derived from analysing the 1992-1995 Bosnia-Herzegovina conflict. Some two decades after this however, adjustments may now be necessary. A focussed examination of the strategy used during 2014 by Islamic State Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS) reveals Kaldor’s framework may now need to include a more explicit focus on the transnational. Since the mid-1990s, the transnational has been made more accessible by advances in social media in particular, and by globalization more generally. ISIS’s use of the transnational indicates this may be an area that astute non-state actors can advantageously exploit - perhaps better than states - although there are some difficulties involved. ISIS’s success suggests that the transnational may in time have greater influence on the politics of international society.

Autorka w swoim artykule, wykorzystując auto/biograficzny wywiad narracyjny, przedstawia konstruowane znaczenia doświadczania transnarodowych sieci (własnej – badaczki oraz narratorki-migrantki). Pomocny w tym procesie jest wybór teoretycznych podstaw, tj. transnarodowych sieci oraz wymiaru mikro w teoriach migracyjnych. Kolejno dokonuje identyfikacji transnarodowych sieci, które nazywa sieciami „przed”, „tam” i „po”, pokazując powiązania biografii badaczki z biografią narratorki.

In her article, the author employs an auto/biographical narrative interview to present the constructed meanings of experiencing transnational networks (her own – the researcher’s – and the narrator-migrant’s networks). The selection of theoretical foundations, i.e. transnational networks and the micro dimension in migration theories is helpful in this process. After that, she identifies transnational networks which she calls „before”, „there” and „after” networks, showing the connections and interpenetration of the researcher’s biography with the narrator.
