Summary of the spaces of local agreements: towards a peace process imaginary

Insights from a new qualitative dataset on local agreements (PA-X Local) to explore the places and spaces of local agreements.

Abstract

This summary uses insights from a new qualitative dataset on local agreements (PA-X Local) to explore the places and spaces of local agreements as an alternative frame to understand conflict resolution in the current moment. It suggests that local agreements present a new picture of conflict and point to a new imaginary for peace processes.
