Post Agreement Reconciliation(s) in Changing Political Eras: Comparing Northern Ireland, Colombia, and Basque Country is an international research effort analyzing the factors that hinder or promote reconciliation.
In our analysis, peace processes in areas of persistent conflict also involves change at the level of social meanings, identities and relationships in ways that are profound and inevitable but cannot be specifically described, controlled, or predicted. Most peace plans fail to anticipate the depth or complexity of challenges, instead focusing on elite leadership concluding “once and for all” agreements. The relative absence of mechanisms for ensuring that ongoing change can be supported - and the absence of attention to devising vehicles, tools, instruments, mechanisms or plans to manage their potentially significant effects - represents a major implicit risk, even to the limited peace after political agreement.
