Research on Peace Agreements Peace agreements are the milestone of peace processes. Once the parties to a conflict decide to sit in the negotiation table with the purpose of signing a peace agreement there is reason to believe that they are committed to find a resolution to the ongoing conflict. Peace agreements bring together conflicting parties on the negotiation table. At the same time they specify policy interventions which deal with conflict issues as perceived and presented by each party
THE DARFUR PEACE AGREEMENT Despite its flaws, the DPA attempted to address the contentious issues of security, power and wealth sharing, but it failed as it was rejected by two key faction leaders and their followers in Darfur. This resulted in a marked increase in hostile action to- wards AMIS, hindering its activities. Despite these challenges, the AU established the DPA Implementation Team (DPAIT) with a mandate to spear- head implementation of the agreement. The DPAIT was to work closely with
emerging social injustice. This pragmatic attitude causes a basic problem. If the past is not addressed, efforts to build a lasting peace are endangered. As lessons from other post-conflict societies have shown, national reconciliation contributes to overcoming the past and reuniting a war-divided society (Schirch, Rafiee, & Sakhi, 2013). There are several ways to bring about peace, stability and harmony in Afghanistan. This paper reviews some issues crucial for discussing and designing a strategy of national
collaboration agreement with the U.S. in 1957. A nuclear weapons program was then started in1970 with scientists that were instructed to build various nuclear weapons. By 1990, the president of South Africa, F.W. de Klerk, ended the program with the aim of joining the NPT as a state without a nuclear weapons capability. In 1991 they then joined the NPT and came to a safeguards agreement with the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency). This was an organization that promoted peace, which they also
achieved independence; however, the new peace was short-lived, as the new Arab-led government reneged on promises of a federal system. General Ibrahim Abboud seized power in 1958 and led the country towards Arabization and Islamicization. These actions angered the predominantly Christian and animist South. Later, in 1971, a communist party rebelled and tried to overthrow Jaafar Numeiri, who came to rule after a military coup. The Addis Ababa Peace Agreement of 1972 between the Sudan government and
Northern Ireland & Peace Process The origins of the Northern Ireland peace process can be traced back to the agreement generally known as the Anglo-Irish Agreement, which was signed in 1985 between the British and Irish governments. According to this agreement, the United Kingdom accepted the condition that the constitutional status of Northern Ireland in the United Kingdom will not be changed without the approval of the majority of Irish citizens. It also recognized the fact that the Irish government

The US has established free trade agreements with twenty different countries across the world. These agreements all have overarching goals that seek to establish regulations of labor and environmental standards, limit barriers to trade, and improve multinational relations. The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) is one of the largest free trade agreements to be negotiated. However, TPP was not a construct
The Geneva Accords in 1954 was known as an agreement that designed to secure peace in Vietnam, and it was also contributed to the war as well. Naturally, when they agreed to sign, it meant the southern and northern regions would be divided by the 17th parallel, French would withdraw its troops from Indochina. Besides, in 1956, the plans for elections would be held for the Vietnamese people to choose a unified government. According to what I found, the battle at Dien Bien Phu to the Conference was

The agreement set power sharing and economic development plan to be implemented with a promise of respecting the right to self-determination when and if the ‘trial’ period did not bring the intended peace and shared vision in Sudan.

American University in Washington D.C., on June 10th, 1963. President John F. Kennedy used the speech as an opportunity to discuss, in his words, “the most important topic on Earth: Peace.” His speech united the audience behind the idea of “genuine peace,” and he humanized the Soviets as worthwhile partners in genuine peace. He did so using ethos, pathos, and logos as techniques in his speech. Kennedy begins the speech by addressing all those in the immediate audience. He includes a joke, saying he

In addition to that Bush administration continuously avowed that defending humanitarian assistance and ultimately brings back peace and stability in the region is the administration’s main concern, but at the same
Liberia is known for their natural resources and rich ethnic traditions. However, there is much more to Liberia than just this. For example, Liberia had two civil wars between 1989 and 2003. The civil wars were caused by the greed of men and resulted in total chaos of the country, millions of people displaced or killed, and the collapse of the Liberian government. The first civil war was started in 1980 as a political uprising caused by Samuel Doe who was a sergeant in the Liberian military.
Palestinian frustration is due to their lack of trust and hope in a peace process that did not yield meaningful results. After seven years of peace talks and six agreements, Palestinians realized that Israel is not serious about peace. Since 1993, Israel has doubled settlements on confiscated Palestinian land, continued to imprison Palestinian prisoners and has implemented only 8 percent of what it agreed to implement in all the signed agreements. The Intifada, in that timing, was also fueled by the extensive
the danger these conflicts pose to our stable political situation. Chad fully endorses President Kiir’s current government and is willing to do anything to achieve a stable situation where all the ethnic groups and government officials coexist in peace.
1971, the government of Sudan and the SSLM signed the Addis Ababa Agreement, giving southern Sudan greatly increased autonomy. The agreement also said that the Abyei region, which is on the boarder of the north and south, was allowed to vote which region it would be a part of. The second civil war began in 1983 when the government of Sudan instituted Shari’ ah in the Abyei region and retracted the part of the Addis Ababa Agreement which allowed the Abyei region to vote on its status in regards to

However, peace agreements can temporarily be slowed the situation that may exacerbate the warring parties to regroup and replenish arms supplies, as the case was in Sierra Leone, Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Angola.

These missions encompasses variety of components such as: military, police, political, civil affairs, human rights etc. However central of any peacekeeping operation is its political process without which root of the conflict cannot be addressed and lasting peace cannot be ensured.
