项目摘要

Sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) in conflict zones has been recognized in recent years as a political and social problem. International actors intervene now in armed conflicts to reduce SGBV and alleviate its consequences. These projects engage in social transformations of gender-and-violence-norms, which have not been in the focus of humanitarian-military interventions. The challenge for intervention and conflict studies is to understand international impact not only on physical warfare, but also on local social norms. However, research on the causes of SGBV has so far yielded insufficient data and contradictory results. Without sound knowledge of the causes of problems, however, intervention practices can easily produce undesirable results. Additionly, interventions bring new resources in conflicts that may benefit civilian and military elites. Therefore, there is a danger that - as frequently observed in civil war interventions - unintended consequences may follow.The central question of the project is therefore: Which intended and unintended consequences are generated by international SGBV-interventions in conflict contexts, and how can these be explained?The investigation is based on a comparison of two case regions within the Democratic Republic of Congo. A mixed-methods approach is to explain intervention consequences. The project investigates on the one hand, whether interventions reach self-defined aims. For this purpose, quantitative data is collected, and relationships between intervention intensity and the number of registered SGBV offenses examined. Qualitative methods are employed to observe specific international practices and explain their effects. These practices include projects for norm change (framing) with respect to SGBV as well as the (re)distribution of resources between local actors. Is SGBV delegitimized in local actor contexts? Are endangered groups actually economically and normatively empowered, do they receive protection? On the other hand, the project asks questions on unintended and hybrid consequences. Are international aims achieved only in distorted forms? How do local actors make use of international resources? How do potential offenders respond to threats of persecution?The project aims to enhance political science research on intervention and conflict by taking efforts to change gender-and-violence-norms into account. It builds on previous results in the field to analyze processes leading to intended and unintended effects of interventions in the area of SGBV.

近年来，冲突地区的性暴力和基于性别的暴力（SGBV）已被视为一个政治和社会问题。国际行动者现在对武装冲突进行干预，以减少性暴力和性别暴力并减轻其后果。这些项目涉及性别和暴力规范的社会变革，而这并不是人道主义军事干预的重点。干预和冲突研究面临的挑战是，不仅要了解对物理战争的国际影响，还要了解对当地社会规范的影响。然而，迄今为止，对SGBV成因的研究数据不足，结果矛盾。然而，如果不充分了解问题的原因，干预措施很容易产生不良后果。此外，干预为冲突带来新的资源，可能有利于平民和军事精英。因此，就像在内战干预中经常看到的那样，可能会出现意想不到的后果。因此，该项目的核心问题是：在冲突背景下，国际性别暴力干预会产生哪些预期和非预期的后果，以及如何解释这些后果？调查是基于对刚果民主共和国境内两个病例区域的比较。混合方法的方法是解释干预的后果。该项目一方面调查干预措施是否达到了自我定义的目标。为此，收集了定量数据，并研究了干预强度与登记的SGBV犯罪数量之间的关系。采用定性方法观察具体的国际惯例并解释其影响。这些实践包括与性暴力有关的规范改变（框架）项目，以及在地方行动者之间（重新）分配资源。在地方行动者的背景下，性暴力是否不合法？濒危群体在经济上和规范上是否得到了授权，他们是否得到了保护？另一方面，该项目提出了关于意外和混合后果的问题。国际目标只能以扭曲的形式实现吗？地方行动者如何利用国际资源？潜在的罪犯如何应对迫害的威胁？该项目旨在通过考虑改变性别和暴力规范的努力，加强对干预和冲突的政治科学研究。它以该领域以前的成果为基础，分析导致在性暴力领域的干预措施产生有意和无意影响的过程。
