Challenges in Conflict Resolution: Case of the Juba talks in Uganda. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, July 2010, Pages: 108
Northern Uganda has suffered violent conflict that has devastated the social fabric of the region. The conflict between the National Resistance Movement and the Lord's Resistance Army has eluded numerous attempts to resolve it. The Juba peace talks that run between 2006 to 2008 presented an opportunity to end the conflict, but both parties failed to endorse the final agreement. This book provides an analysis of the reasons for the failed talks, the role played by the different actors, and the impact they had on the final outcome. Neema challenges the assumption that one conflict resolution model fits all conflict contexts, and argues that sufficient time be devoted to a thorough assessment of the best conflict resolution mode to bring about a sustainable resolution to a given conflict. The analysis points to the need to understand the unique nature of each complex political emergency as an essential tool if we are to move towards lasting peace agreements. This book is intended to form the basis for empirical research and act as a guide for policy makers in the betterment of current and further efforts of resolve conflicts of this nature.
