The Management of Peace Processes

Más información sobre el libro

Focusing on the evolution of peace processes in recent years, this book examines how conflicts are now resolved through direct involvement of the parties rather than solely through UN interventions. By analyzing five significant peace processes—Israel/Palestine, South Africa, the Basque Country, Sri Lanka, and Northern Ireland—it explores key factors that influence political progress in divided societies. Through interviews with senior policymakers, it addresses challenges like violence, reintegration of combatants, and the impact of public opinion, while questioning common assumptions about peace negotiations.
