Conflict resolution : power-sharing and other inclusion strategies -- Peacebuilding and conflict resolution in practice -- Sri Lanka : the repeated failure of inclusion incentives -- Sudan : the dangerous collateral effects of inclusion incentives -- Colombia : the limited appeal of inclusionincentives.

In order to end armed conflict, and ensure that it does not recur, numerous tactics are used by national governments, the international community, and others engaged in conflict resolution. These tactics include amnesties, financial rewards, offers of inclusion in structures of power, and threats of reprisal and use of force, among myriad others. There is a thriving debate in the literatureregarding the appropriate tactics and incentives for peace negotiations, as well as the peacebuilding processes promoted by the international community. This book critically analyzes one key set of negotiation incentives used in peace agreements: inclusion of armed groups in structures of power. Though I looselyterm these incentives as b1 spower-sharing b2 s, they are much broader than traditional power-sharing, and rely on explicit institutionalization of the state and the use of state institutions. These negotiation incentives can involve inclusion of previously excluded or outlawed groupsas legitimate political parties, sharing of resources with such groups, inclusion of former combatants in reformed military or police forces, and offers of partial or complete autonomy. This approachislargely used to bring non-state armed groups into negotiations, rather than as leverage on governments themselves. The book, drawing upon studies inSri Lanka, Sudan, and Colombia, demonstrates thelimitations and even dangers of using such strategies.
