Recenzii
’This book provides a comprehensive and incisive analysis of the failure of the Norwegian mediation to facilitate a negotiated settlement to the protracted ethnic conflict in Sri Lanka. A well-researched study that draws on a wide variety of sources, this book makes several important policy-relevant findings. It is an important contribution at a time when the usefulness of third-party mediation is being re-examined.’ Amal Jayawardane, University of Colombo, Sri Lanka ’The end of the Cold War led to a spate of negotiated settlements of several seemingly intractable conflicts. The expectation for "soft" powers with moral authority to act as intermediaries in identity based conflicts in particular was high. This was the background to Norwegian mediation of the Sri Lankan ethno-nationalist (separatist) civil war. This book is a well-researched, well presented account of how the Norwegian-led process unravelled to end in a decisive military victory for the state. I expect this study will be widely cited.’ Indra de Soysa, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Norway
