Introduction: "Easier signed than done" -- Peace and its delayed dividends -- Fatigue, not fraternity in Guatemala -- Development from below? -- Elusive equity and security in Northern Ireland -- Getting to yesin Northern Ireland -- Conclusion: Synergies for peace -- Appendices: 1. Guatemala:agreement on a firm and lasting peace (December 29, 1996)-- 2. The agreement on social and economicaspects and agrarian situation (May 6, 1996) -- 3. The Good Friday agreement (Belfast agreement), April 10, 1998 -- 4. The agreement at St Andrews (October 13, 2006).

This book analyzes the implementation of peace processes in NorthernIreland and Guatemala, with emphasis on the role of mid-level civil society and religious organizations, or the voluntary sector. Both countries interrupted years of conflict, signed peace accords in 1998 and 1996 respectively, and still struggle to make them work. Despite very different economic development levels, both countries have colonial legacies, deep cultural divisions, and engaged diaspora. They grapple with violence, poverty and inequitable distribution of wealth and power. While religious differences are a backdrop to violence and reconciliation in both cases, insecurity and inequity are the root cause andconsequence of these conflicts. The book summarizes lessons learned and makes policy recommendations for more civil post-conflict societies, arguing that similar dynamics fuel sustainable peace-building and authentic development.
