It analyzes the success and pitfalls of international experiences before proposing a model for Syria. Contributors address the central question: which among the set of power-sharing agreements that have helped settle protracted identity-driven armed conflict can provide Syria with a platform for dialogue, negotiation, and conflict mitigation? The comparative analysis advanced in this book extracts lessons from countries such as Bosnia-Herzegovina, India, Iraq, Lebanon, Mali, Northern Ireland, the Philippines and Sudan. The prospect of a post-conflict distribution of power in Syria is then unraveled from different sectarian, ethnic and regional perspectives. The authors also address challenges of peacebuilding such as violent extremism, gender participation, resettlements, retributions, transitional justice, integration of armed groups and regional and international sponsorship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e​Imad Salamey\u003c\/b\u003e is Associate Professor of Political Science and the Director of the Institute for Social Justice and Conflict Resolution at the Lebanese American University.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMohammed Abu-Nime\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003er \u003c\/b\u003eis Senior Advisor to KAICIID and Professor in the School of International Service at American University, USA.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eElie Abouaoun\u003c\/b\u003e is Director of Middle East and North Africa Programs at the US Institute of Peace.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 191\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.44 x 8.27 x 5.83 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 12, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52732488974643,"sku":"9783319867786","price":185.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/M0w4aGN6WlFFYWNhcEIxdDZQZzJudz09.webp?v=1763892148","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/post-conflict-power-sharing-agreements-options-for-syria-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
