Ein 2019 anstehender Austritt des Vereinigten Königreichs aus der Europäischen Union wirft Schatten auf die ohnehin labile Lage des Friedensarrangements in Nord­irland, der britischen Exklave im Nordosten der irischen Insel. Der Report skizziert Ansatz, Rahmenbedingungen und Verlauf des nordirischen Friedensprozesses bis hin zu Symptomen seines Zerfalls. Er umreißt zudem die Herausforderungen, die ein Brexit dem Erhalt friedlicher Verhältnisse in Nordirland auferlegt.

The book examines all relevant models which have been employed in settling ethno-territorial conflicts since the time of the League of Nations. Eight of these models have been studied in-depth. The aim of this analysis is to gain expertise and insights that could prove relevant to resolving the conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh. This potential is evaluated in the closing chapters of the volume where novel ideas on how to apply the lessons of these cases to the conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh are presented. This conflict carries many features typical of ethno-territorial conflicts in present and past times: it is neither unique, nor does its settlement depend on others than the parties to the conflict. Rather it is - as in all other cases - entrenched historical narratives and enemy images which lead to zero-sum calculations and can conceivably only be overcome in a gradual process. Content: Part I Nagorno-Karabakh and ethno-territorial conflict settlement. Part II Case studies of ethno-territorial conflict settlement: Åland, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, South Tyrol, Trieste, Cyprus, Northern Ireland, Quebec. Part III Results and conclusions: A way out for Nagorno-Karabakh.
