The Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) is one of Africa's most notorious
armed rebel groups, having operated across Uganda, South Sudan,
Sudan, the Central African Republic and the Democratic Republic of
the Congo. When they entered the Juba Peace Talks with the Ugandan
Government in 2006, the peace deal seemed like a gift to fighters
who had for years barely been surviving in Central Africa's
jungles. Yet the talks failed. Why? Based on exclusive interviews
with LRA fighters and their notorious leader Joseph Kony, Mareike
Schomerus provides insights into how the LRA experienced the Juba
Talks, revealing developing dynamics and deep distrust within a
conflict system and how these became entrenched through the peace
negotiations. In so doing, Schomerus offers an explanation as to
why current approaches to ending armed violence not only fail but
how they actively contribute to their own failure, and calls for a
new approach to contemporary peacemaking.
