Mediation Strategy and Quality PeaceYamaguchi, Mariko January 2021 (has links)
Many scholars have researched on the effects of individual mediation strategy following the categorization by Touval and Zartman (1985), and Bercovitch (1991). Despite the growing recognition of the potential synergetic effects among different strategies, not many systematic studies have been done on that aspect. This thesis contributes to this understudied aspect of mediation approach by asking What is the impact of mediation strategy on quality peace after civil war? The study adopts the method of structured, focused comparison along with the detailed process tracing on four cases of peace agreements and their mediation process from Northern Ireland, Mindanao, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Niger. The study aims to test a theoretical argument linking combined-application of mediation strategies with high quality peace. The empirical findings provide a modest support to hypothesis and a weak support to the causal mechanism, as not all cases, having applied all three strategies, have achieved high quality peace and have promoted third-party guarantee and inclusivity. While the empirical findings point to other contextual factors that may affect the peace agreement implementation, the findings also indicate a potential promising mediation approach that combines directive strategy either with communicative-facilitative or procedural strategy putting more weight on the latter strategy.

Examining Mediation Onset in Recurring ConflictsTerhaag, Wera January 2021 (has links)
After the Cold War, mediation as an armed conflict resolution process was thought to become an increasingly common tool to address even the most complex armed conflicts. Recurring conflicts especially should be the focus of mediation. However, with regards to armed conflicts that reoccur, there is a gap in the research of mediation in relation to the rounds of violence. This thesis argues that the more rounds of violence a recurring armed conflict experiences the less likely it will experience mediation. To examine the relationship between the rounds of violence of a recurring armed conflict and mediation onset, this thesis employed Structured Focused Comparison (SFC) to compare two recurring armed conflicts. One with a low mediation occurrence (West Papua) and one high mediation occurrence (Aceh). While the case comparison provides limited support for the hypothesized relationship between rounds of violence and mediation, the results instead may provide support that recurring armed conflicts are not increasingly resistant to mediation the more rounds of violence they experience.

Web-Based Evaluation Survey of Campus Mediation Programs: Perceptions from the FieldDaniel, Gayon Monique January 2009 (has links)
Campus mediation programs (CMP's) experienced a rapid growth in higher education institutions from 18 programs in 1990 to more than 200 programs in 1998 (Warters, 2000). During that period, CMP's became a widely accepted approach for addressing conflict within US colleges and universities. However, recent data indicate that there are just over 100 programs which points to a decline and raises questions as to the value of campus mediation programs to higher education institutions. A hindrance to addressing the questions raised has been the limited amount of empirical research and published data on evaluation use within campus mediation programs. Accordingly, the purpose of this study was to gather information from US campus mediation program directors regarding their use of program evaluation in order to suggest ways to improve their evaluation efforts. Campus mediation program directors were surveyed on their perceptions of evaluation use in their respective programs. This study was conducted over a period of six months using a web-survey and follow-up telephone interviews. The web-based survey used in this study was adapted from an online campus mediation program survey developed by Rick Olshak and modified. The web-survey consisted of four sections: Demographics, Description of Services, Evaluation and Program Profile. The population consisted of 108 campus mediation program directors in US higher education institutions who were solicited for this study and agreed to participate. Of the 108 directors, there were a total of 59 respondents representing a 55% response rate. There were nine respondents who participated in a follow-up telephone interview. Data analysis for the research questions utilized rank order, frequencies, and averages; supplemental analyses utilized an independent samples t-test, one-way ANOVA's and Pearson correlations. Results indicated that evaluation received one of the lowest priority ranking as a program goal, however, most of the directors indicated that they would be very interested in learning different ways of improving their evaluation methods and having a standard evaluation process. The most prevalent concerns and recommendations from the telephone follow-up interviews focused on acquiring buy-in of administration and campus affiliates, improving program surveys, addressing budget cuts and decreasing high staff turnovers. / Educational Psychology

Mission als Mediation : Vermittlung und soziale Transformation als Aufgabe der Kirche / Mission as mediation : mediation and social transformation as a task of christian churchSebastian, Horst 07 1900 (has links)
Text in German / This thesis takes as a starting point the societal change in Germany with its concomitant
economic risks for substantial parts of the population. Evangelical churches in Germany have
yet to react to this change. While the relationship between social work and mission has been a
point of widespread discussion within the evangelical movement internationally, it fails to
have any impact on local churches. The question is thus: how can a mission-oriented church
benefit from Christian social reform movements? Transformative as well as holistic
understandings of mission have already yielded an enlarged vision of mission as
encompassing social justice. But how about a missiological paradigm which is practically
translatable into cultural and social relevance as far as the local church’s vision for becoming
an agent of societal change/reform is concerned?
When interpreted missiologically, mediation can be such a useful paradigm, as its
essence is conflict as a constant anthropological signifier of human/divine distance on the one
side and God’s purpose of redemption as reflected in the church’s mission on the other. Thus
mediation could be called a category of the missio dei.
This practical implementation into the church’s work as being relevant for its
community is reached by reverting to the sciences of social work, namely the concept of
community development. As mediative community work, this approach will add to the profile
of a mission-oriented church as determined to serve a holistic vision of the gospel. At the
focus is thus the immediate social environment of a local church, in which it can trigger
spiritual, personal, social, cultural and economic processes of transformation.
In the social context of Germany this way of expressing the missiological drive of a
local church seems to be a hopeful avenue, since the social and economic risks are likely to
remain and are threatening a large percentage of the population with social marginalisation. It
is here that the economy of community work will be furnishing useful aspects to help a
mission-oriented church develop its mediative-communal thrust into its immediate social
context in order to proclaim God’s redemptive purpose. / Ausgangspunkt dieser Arbeit ist die Beobachtung des gesellschaftlichen Wandels in der
Bundesrepublik Deutschland samt seiner sozialen und ökonomischen Risiken für weite Teile
der Bevölkerung. Eine Antwort auf diesen Transformationsprozess ist seitens der
evangelikalen Kirchen in Deutschland ausgeblieben. Die Frage nach der
Verhältnisbestimmung zwischen sozialer Arbeit und Mission ist in der evangelikalen
Bewegung zwar international breit diskutiert worden, doch hat sie kaum Wirkung auf die
Praxis der örtlichen Gemeinden in Deutschland gezeigt. Bearbeitet wird daher die
Fragestellung, wie eine missionarisch orientierte Gemeinde in ihrem Sendungsauftrag
Initiativen christlicher Sozialreformen umsetzen kann. Transformative und ganzheitliche
Missionskonzepte haben bereits ein erweitertes Missionsverständnis hervorgebracht, welches
die soziale Gerechtigkeit als missionarischen Auftrag mit einschließt. Die Frage stellt sich
nun nach einem missionstheologischen Paradigma, welches praktisch in eine kultur- und
gesellschaftsrelevante Tätigkeit einer missionalen Gemeinde umgesetzt werden kann, durch
die sie zu einem Träger einer christlich geprägten Sozialreform wird.
Das Paradigma, das hierfür erarbeitet und missionstheologisch gedeutet wird, ist das
der Mediation. Sie offenbart in ihrem Wesen zum einen den Konflikt als anthropologische
Konstante und somit die Distanz zu Gott und zum anderen die Heilsabsicht Gottes, die sich
im Missionsauftrag an die Gemeinde widerspiegelt. So stellt sich die Mediation als Kategorie
der missio dei dar.
Die konkrete Umsetzung dieses Paradigmas in eine die Gesellschaft gestaltende Arbeit
gelingt durch die Hinzuziehung des Arbeitsprinzips der Gemeinwesenarbeit aus der Sozialarbeitswissenschaft. In Form einer mediativ-gemeinwesenorientierten Arbeit gibt sie
einer missional ausgerichteten Gemeinde die Möglichkeit ihren Sendungsauftrag mit einem
umfassenden Heilsverständnis umzusetzen. Dabei steht der unmittelbare Sozialraum der
lokalen Kirchengemeinde im Fokus des Interesses, in dem geistliche, persönliche, soziale
kulturelle und ökonomische transformative Prozesse eingeleitet werden können.
Bezugnehmend auf den Kontext der Bundesrepublik Deutschland erweist sich diese
Art den Sendungsauftrag umzusetzen als hoffnungsträchtig, da die sozialen und
ökonomischen Risiken in Zukunft weiter bestehen werden und ein nicht unerheblicher Teil
der Bevölkerung bereits als sozial ausgegrenzt ist. Hier gibt insbesondere die
Gemeinwesenökonomie Anhaltspunkte, wie eine mediativ-gemeinwesenorientierte missionale
Gemeinde in ihrem Sozialraum den Heilswillen Gottes verkündigen kann. / Christian Spirituality,Church History and Missiology / D. Th. (Missiology)
