Referendums have become an undeniably important, and perhaps
inescapable, peacemaking tool in contemporary peace processes. As
such, understanding the ways in which referendum outcomes are
shaped by peace negotiations is vital. Drawing upon two case
studies, Amaral presents an empirically rich comparative analysis
of the Annan Plan in Cyprus and the Good Friday Agreement in
Northern Ireland. She examines the negotiations, offering new
interview material with key political and civil figures involved in
the peace negotiations and referendum campaigns in both cases.
Amaral argues that referendums are unsuitable for traditional
secretive and exclusionist peace negotiations that fail to engage
and educate the public. They rather require inclusive negotiations
that involve a broad spectrum of political stakeholders and civil
society at the early stages of the process. This collaborative
approach can allow referendums to positively shape societies in
conflict and be a crucial step toward lasting peace.
