Models of Ethnic Conflict Regulation

Chapter 2 in Managing and Settling Ethnic Conflicts, 2004, pp 18-39 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Models of regulation are a distinct feature of managing and settling conflicts. The basic idea is to channel or solve conflicts by macro-political strategies, i.e. via institutional arrangements, rules, mechanisms and procedures, sometimes including the use of force. Thus, conflict regulation is less concerned with processes, such as negotiation or mediation efforts, which aim to end a conflict, and more with structures, i.e. with the established political, legal and socio-economic systems, and with the various policies linked to them. In ethnic conflicts, these structures and the embedded policies do often reflect the status of majority-minority relationship.
