Power-sharing is an important political strategy for managing
protracted conflicts and it can also facilitate the democratic
accommodation of difference. Despite these benefits, it has been
much criticised, with claims that it is unable to produce peace and
stability, is ineffective and inefficient, and obstructs other
peacebuilding values, including gender equality. This edited
collection aims to enhance our understanding of the utility of
power-sharing in deeply divided places by subjecting power-sharing
theory and practice to empirical and normative analysis and
critique. Its overarching questions are: Do power-sharing
arrangements enhance stability, peace and cooperation in divided
societies? Do they do so in ways that promote effective governance?
Do they do so in ways that promote justice, fairness and democracy?
Utilising a broad range of global empirical case studies, it
provides a space for dialogue between leading and emerging scholars
on the normative questions surrounding power-sharing.
Distinctively, it asks proponents of power-sharing to think
critically about its weaknesses. This text will be of interest to
students, scholars and practitioners of power-sharing, ethnic
politics, democracy and democratization, peacebuilding, comparative
constitutional design, and more broadly Comparative Politics,
International Relations and Constitutional and Comparative Law.
