Description:Human rights and conflict resolution have been traditionally perceived as two separate fields, sometimes in competition or in tension and occasionally with contradictory approaches towards achieving conflict transformation and enduring peace. Although human rights norms have been incorporated and institutionalized by various national, regional and international organizations that deal with conflict resolution, in practice, negotiators are often pressured to overlook international human rights principles in favor of compliance and more immediate outcomes.Academic work considering the relationship between these two fields is limited. Three gaps in the literature are of special concern. First, lack of conceptual and analytical frameworks connecting the two fields. Second, the existing literature fails to address how these two fields have been integrated into the normative and practical work of international institutions. The third gap concerns the empirical dimensions and lessons learned from attempts to integrate human-rights perspectives into peace related efforts. Recognizing the increasing relevance of this debate and the current research gaps, the proposed volume aims to critically address the following questions:How can we improve our practical and theoretical understanding of the complementarity between human rights and conflict resolution? How would a human rights-based approach to conflict resolution look like? What would it entail?How are international, regional and national organizations promoting, implementing, and/or adapting to better coordinate between human rights and conflict resolution?Building on empirical evidence from contemporary negotiation and mediation processes, how have human rights been integrated in different conflict resolution efforts? What are the commonalities and tensions between human rights advocates and conflict resolvers? And what have been the main lessons learned in this regard?Examining a wide range of countries and issues, this work will be essential reading for human rights, conflict resolution and security experts including scholars, researchers, diplomats and civil servants, policy-makers, practitioners, and civil society representatives. This volume is also intended for students of international politics.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
