This book takes stock of the accumulated body of literature on
ripeness theory, inspired by the seminal work of I. William
Zartman. The book posits the continued relevance of the ripeness
theory, well into the 21st century, and sheds new light on the
potential for further development. The timing of efforts for
resolution, either negotiation or mediation, is always a central
concern for policy makers and scholars alike in the field of
international conflict resolution. The work of I. William Zartman
on ripeness was a groundbreaker in the long-standing inquiry into
this key question, and over more than three decades, the notion of
a ripe moment and its adjuncts, such as a mutually hurting
stalemate and a mutually enticing opportunity, has not only served
as an essential policy guidance but also inspired wide-ranging
research programs. The chapters in this edited volume feature
studies intended to advance ripeness theory conceptually, test it
empirically through case studies for possible implications to the
theory itself, or examine relations with related concepts and
theories. This volume is divided into two parts. The Foreword and
the chapters included in Part I were originally published as a
special issue of the journal Ethnopolitics. Part II features, first
and foremost, Zartman's own seminal article published in the
inaugural issue of the same journal. It also includes other
recently published articles in journals such as Security Studies,
Civil Wars, and Studies in Conflict & Terrorism that are
considered to have made important contributions to the debate on
the subject.
