Title
Designing Peace: Cyprus And Institutional Innovations In Divided Societies (National And Ethnic Conflict In The 21St Century),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Why do some societies choose to adopt federal settlements in the face of acute ethnic conflict, while others do not? Neophytos Loizides examines how acrimoniously divided Cyprus could reunify by adopting a federal and consociational arrangement inspiring similar attempts in its region.Loizides asserts that institutional innovation is key in designing peace processes. Analyzing powersharing in Northern Ireland, the return of displaced persons in Bosnia, and the preparatory mandate referendum in South Africa, he shows how divided societies have implemented novel solutions despite conditions that initially seemed prohibitive. Turning to Cyprus, he chronicles the breakthrough that led to the exhumations of the missing after 2003, and observes that a society's choice of narratives and institutions can overcome structural constraints. While Loizides points to the relative absence of successful federal and consociational arrangements among societies evolving from the 'postOttoman space,' he argues that neither elites nor broader societies in the region must be held hostages to the past.To effect lasting and positive change, Loizides encourages stakeholders in divided societies to be prepared to identify, redesign, and implement innovative new institutions. Examining successful peace mediations and identifying the shared experience and commonalities between Cyprus and other divided societies promises not only to inform the tackling of the Cyprus problem but also to provide transferable knowledge with broader implications for the fields of peace studies and conflict resolution.
