This collection of essays situates the study and practice of international mediation and peaceful settlement of disputes within a changing global context. The book is organized around issues of concern to practitioners, including the broader regional, global, and institutional context of mediation and how this broader environment shapes the opportunities and prospects for successful mediation. A major theme is complexity, and how the complex contemporary context presents serious challenges to mediation. This environment describes a world where great-power rivalries and politics are coming back into play, and international and regional organizations are playing different roles and facing different kinds of constraints in the peaceful settlement of disputes. The first section discusses the changing international environment for conflict management and reflects on some of the challenges that this changing environment raises for addressing conflict. Part II focuses on the consequences of bringing new actors into third-party engagement and examines what may be harbingers for how we will attempt to resolve conflict in the future. The third section turns to the world of practice, and discusses mediation statecraft and how to employ it in this current international environment. The volume aims to situate the practice and study of mediation within this wider social and political context to better understand the opportunities and constraints of mediation in today’s world. The value of the book lies in its focus on complex and serious issues that challenge both mediators and scholars.This volume will be of much interest to students, practitioners, and policymakers in the area of international negotiation, mediation, conflict resolution and international relations.

This edited book examines the link between peace or violent conflict and the practice of governance in African states.Exploring the historical roots of today's African challenges, the chapters explore the sources of legitimacy in African states and help to clarify how a strengthened social contract can be built in societies facing the fact or threat of conflict. The volume includes a variety of case study examples to illustrate the performance of states on topics such as including women, youth and civil society, on coping with the challenge of extremism, on respecting the potential contributions of traditional authorities, and on delivering key governance outputs such as the rule of law and delivering essential services. Some chapters explore the trajectory of conflict management initiatives led from within Africa by regional and sub-regional bodies, while others give greater attention to the role of outside actors. While there have been numerous studies on conflict in Africa as well as on the impact of bad governance on specific countries, there have been few that have made the link between governance and conflict as it manifests across the continent. By exploring these issues in depth, this book sets an agenda for further research in the fields of conflict resolution, politics and governance.This book will be of much interest to students and practitioners of conflict management, African politics, global governance and International Relations.

Three scenarios for future approaches to peace and conflict diplomacy, explored through the lens of regional perspectives and security threatsDiplomacy in pursuit of peace and security faces severe challenges not seen in decades. The reemergence of strong states, discord in the UN Security Council, destabilizing transnational nonstate actors, closing space for civil society within states, and the weakening of the international liberal order all present new obstacles to diplomacy. In Diplomacy and the Future of World Order, an international group of experts confronts these challenges to peace and conflict diplomacy—defined as the effort to manage others’ conflicts, cope with great power competition, and deal with threats to the state system itself. In doing so, they consider three potential scenarios for world order where key states decide to go it alone, return to a liberal order, or collaborate on a case-by-case basis to address common threats and problems. These three scenarios are then evaluated through the prism of regional perspectives from around the world and for their potential ramifications for major security threats including peacekeeping, nuclear nonproliferation, cyber competition, and terrorism. Editors Chester A. Crocker, Fen Osler Hampson, and Pamela Aall conclude the volume by identifying emerging types of diplomacy that may form the foundation for global peacemaking and conflict management in an uncertain future.
