This book answers two related questions concerning civil war peace
agreements. First, it explains why some peace agreements get signed
while others do not get signed, and second, why do some of those
agreements that get signed not hold to ultimately bring an end to
protracted civil wars. In spite of the fact that most mediated
settlements of civil wars are not durable, it is still important
that we understand why some civil war agreements reach initial
steps towards settlement, without which full and durable end of
conflict is not possible. To improve our understanding of the
process through which civil war agreements are concluded and why
some settlements hold while others do not, this study looks at
empirical evidence from three mediated sets of peace agreements.
The focus is first a series of fourteen agreements that finally
ended the first civil war in Liberia in 1997; second, the 1993
Arusha peace accord that failed to prevent the escalation of
conflict into genocide in Rwanda; and third, a series of three
agreements that were signed but did not initially hold to end the
conflict in Sierra Leone. An excellent and thorough study, this
book will be a welcome reference for collections in African
studies, international peace studies, and political science.
