Web site on Peace Agreements 1989-99


Dear All,

The Conflict Data Service (CDS) at INCORE has recently produced a new
section to its site on 'Peace Agreements 1989-99'.  This is available
on line at http://www.incore.ulst.ac.uk/cds/agreements/index.html
 
The 1990s have been a decade of peace processes. Although they vary
enormously in complexity, number of actors, timescale and outcome,
peace processes have become the orthodox way in which low intensity,
seemingly intractable, ethnic conflicts reach an accommodation in the
1990s. A clear trend towards internally agreed initiatives, rather
than externally imposed settlements, is noticeable. Yet, the majority
of peace accords fail. Often, peace accords fail to anticipate
post-conflict problems, or are regarded as a staging post in the
conflict. The accords are worth examining in detail though. This is
particularly the case from a comparative perspective. It has become
increasingly common for actors in one peace process to borrow from the
experiences of others. To this end, the publication and widespread
dissemination of recent peace accords has enormous merit.
 
The CDS hopes that you find this material useful.  Any comments or
suggestions, as usual, are most welcome.
 
Yours,
Cathy Gormley
