Diplomacy; Settlement of international disputes

Written by international practitioners and scholars, this pioneering work offers important insights into peace mediation practice today and the role of third parties in the resolution of armed conflicts.

The authors reveal how peace mediation has developed into a complex arena and how multifaceted assistance has become an indispensable part of it. Offering unique reflections on the new frameworks set out by the UN, they look at the challenges and opportunities of third-party involvement.

With its policy focus and real-world examples from across the globe, this is essential reading for researchers of peace and conflict studies, and a go-to reference point for advisers involved in peace processes.

Reviews for Rethinking Peace Mediation: Challenges of Contemporary Peacemaking Practice

To resolve protracted violent conflicts, peace mediation is a very promising approach. This book sheds light on the nexus between mediation practice and its conceptual underpinnings. As a resource, it is a must-read for both practitioners and experts. Hans-Joachim Giessmann, Berghof Foundation This book leads the way in expanding how we construct important elements in peacemaking. It extends current thinking outwards, and introduces new stakeholders, rethought norms, and new forms of 'circum-mediatory' engagement. A good collection to get us thinking. I. William Zartman, Johns Hopkins University
