The Role of Civil Society in the Guatemalan Peace Process
What role can civil society play in peace negotiations? What happens when inclusivity is weighed against stopping violence, or when included groups are met with an imperfect deal in the end? In this episode Henrik Syse speaks with Dr. Wenche Hauge from Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO), who explains the controversies surrounding civil society’s inclusion in the Guatemalan peace process from 1990 to 1996.
Dr. Hauge outlines how the political aims of conflict parties shaped civil society’s reach – allowing for its advances regarding indigenous rights, while limiting its capacity in controversial realms such as the establishment of a truth commission.
