Beschreibung
This book surveys comparative power-sharing models implemented in identity-conflict societies, with attention given to post-conflict designs. It analyzes the success and pitfalls of each under different circumstances before adopting a potential model for Syria. Several questions are advanced in order to help guide this research inquiry: What are the post-conflict power-sharing arrangements that have helped yield political settlements and achieve consensus in deeply divided societies? Which among the set of power-sharing agreements have helped to settle protracted armed conflict and provided a template for debate, negotiation, and conflict mitigation among the different power-contested groups? Which of these different power-sharing designs can be suitable in the Syrian context?
