Abstract: Much of the research on conflict resolution has focused on the conditions for getting parties involved in a conflict to sign a peace agreement. Less attention has been paid to what happens next. In this working paper, we offer a review of the available literature on the factors shaping peace agreement implementation (PAI).2 We conceive the implementation process as composed of multiple temporal stages (short to long-term), layers (from international to local), and dimensions (including politics, justice, the economy, and culture). In an implementation phase, all these need to be addressed in parallel, as they exert mutual impact and shape each other¿s progress. The general overview presented here will allow scholars and policymakers to have a broad sense of the most important debates within the literature.
