SUMMARY:(P13AB) Cambodia at a Crossroads? Democracy and Development on the 30th Anniversary of the Paris Peace Agreements (1)
LOCATION:K12 | 2.18
DESCRIPTION:October 2021 marks the 30-year anniversary of Cambodia’s Paris 
 Peace Agreements. Signed in 1991, the historic accords marked the end of Ca
 mbodia’s protracted civil conflict and wield global significance as the fir
 st major multilateral peace accord to follow the end of the Cold War. Steel
 ed and sealed in an era of heady (neo)liberal optimism, the Paris treaties\
 nushered the era of UNTAC, a United Nations peacekeeping force, tasked with
  a threefold mission: to steer Cambodia from war to peace, from authoritari
 anism to democracy, and from a command to free market economy. Through the 
 90s and 00s, rapid rates of economic growth shored Cambodia’s reputation as
  the poster-boy of post-war transitions. But against the promises of the en
 d-of-history idealists, growth, democracy and development have not come han
 d-in-hand. Thirty-years on, Cambodia presents a de facto one-party state, u
 nder the 35-year reign of an aging autocrat, whose stability is secured\nth
 rough violent repression of conflict over extraction of resources and profi
 t. Labour and human rights abuses have led the EU to enforce trade sanction
 s, as the US considers following suit. Has the poster-boy become a pariah? 
 And yet, as relations with the West cool, Cambodia’s ties with China’s grow
 ing global influence tighten. Amid the turbulence, a cultural enaissance an
 d popular struggles quietly flourish. At this timely juncture, we invite cr
 itical reflections on the legacy of the Paris Peace Accords and the traject
 ory of Cambodia’s transition: past, present and prospect.
