Download or read book Conflict and Peacebuilding in Sri Lanka written by Jonathan Goodhand and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-12-14 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The period between 2001 and 2006 saw the rise and fall of an internationally supported effort to bring a protracted violent conflict in Sri Lanka to a peaceful resolution. A ceasefire agreement, signed in February 2002, was followed by six rounds of peace talks, but growing political violence, disagreements over core issues and a fragmentation of the constituencies of the key parties led to an eventual breakdown. In the wake of the failed peace process a new government pursued a highly effective ‘war for peace’ leading to the military defeat of the LTTE on the battlefields of the north east in May 2009. This book brings together a unique range of perspectives on this problematic and ultimately unsuccessful peace process. The contributions are based upon extensive field research and written by leading Sri Lankan and international researchers and practitioners. The framework of ‘liberal peacebuilding’ provides an analytical starting point for exploring the complex and unpredictable interactions between international and domestic players during the war-peace-war period. The lessons drawn from the Sri Lankan case have important implications in the context of wider debates on the ‘liberal peace’ and post conflict peacebuilding – particularly as these debates have largely been shaped by the ‘high profile’ cases such as Kosovo, Afghanistan and Iraq. This book is of interest not only to Sri Lanka specialists but also to the wider policy/practitioner audience, and is a useful contribution to South Asian studies.

Download or read book To End a Civil War written by Mark Salter and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-01-10 with total page 566 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1983 and 2009 Sri Lanka was host to a bitter civil war fought between the Government and the Tamil Tigers, which sought the creation of an independent Tamil state. In May 2009 came the war's violent end with the crushing defeat of the Tamil Tigers at the hands of the Sri Lanka Army. But prior to this grim finale, for some time there had been hope for a peaceful end to the conflict. Beginning with a ceasefire agreement in early 2002, for almost five years a series of peace talks between the two sides took place in locations ranging from Thailand and Japan to Norway, Germany and Switzerland. To End a Civil War tells the story of trying to bring peace to Sri Lanka. In particular it tells the story of how a faraway European nation--Norway--came to play a central role in efforts to end the conflict, and what its small, dedicated team of mediators did in their untiring efforts to reach what ultimately proved the elusive goal of a negotiated peace. In doing so it fills a critical gap in our understanding of the Sri Lankan conflict. But it also illuminates in detail a much wider problem: the intense fragility that surrounds peace processes and the extraordinary lengths to which their proponents often stretch in order to secure their progress.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The facilitation of the CFA as well as peace talks, and the promise of economic assistance for peace making and peace building are the key contributions made by the international actors. [...] In the absence of both a political agreement and political engagement, the relationship between the government and the LTTE is governed entirely by the fragile CFA. [...] • The absence of a political consensus in the South, particularly among the main political parties, led to the erosion of political conditions favorable to advance the peace process. [...] The experience during the past three years has exposed not only the limitations of the 2002-2003 peace process, but also the inability of the Sri Lankan government, the LTTE, the international community, other domestic political forces and the civil society, to nurture the peace process. [...] Box 5 The peace process of 2002-2003 exposed the limitations of the state, the LTTE, the international community and civil society in advancing peace in Sri Lanka.
