Governing Ethnic Conflict Consociation, Identity and the Price of Peace

Offering an analysis of the peace process in Ireland and the Dayton Accords in Bosnia Herzegovina, this book argues that the problem with consociational arrangements is not simply that they institutionalise ethnic division and privilege particular identities or groups, but, importantly, that they close down the space for other ways of being.

  • "This book examines notions of identity that have become central to the understanding of conflict and its resolution in the liberal state and beyond."
  • "This book offers an intellectual history of an emerging technology of peace and explains how the liberal state has come to endorse illiberal subjects and practices. The idea that conflicts are problems that have causes and therefore solutions rather than winners and losers has gained momentum since the end of the Cold War, and it has become more common for third party mediators acting in the name of liberal internationalism to promote the resolution of intra-state conflicts. These third-party peace makers appear to share lessons and expertise so that it is possible to speak of an emergent common technology of peace based around a controversial form of power-sharing known as consociation. In this common technology of peace, the cause of conflict is understood to be competing ethno-national identities and the solution is to recognize these identities, and make them useful to government through power-sharing.--Publisher."
