This dissertation consists of three self-contained essays that investigate the duration of war and the duration of postwar peace. The first essay studies both durations jointly, with a particular focus on the interdependence between the two processes. It demonstrates that membership in security organizations can prolong the durability of peace after conflict, but that the expected longer peace after conflict can also prolong the duration of conflict. The second essay analyzes the duration of war in a greater detail, exploring how third-party actors influence the process. It shows that balanced intervention can shorten the duration until a negotiated settlement is reached between the disputants. The third essay looks at the stability of postwar peace by focusing on the strength of cease-fire agreements. It argues that stronger agreements can maintain longer peace after wars by helping the disputants resolve the bargaining problems. The statistical analysis that corrects for the endogeneity of agreement strength provides support for the argument.

La paix de Callias, paix entre Athênes et la Perse, aurait été conclue au milieu du Ve siècle par un nommé Callias. Théopompe et Callisthène, au IV, auraient affirmé qu'elle n'a pas eu lieu. Et puis la tradition de la paix, après cet orage, a réussi à traverser les siècles. [...]

The function of law is to give expression to justice, but the perfect achievement of this purpose is one which human law can never fully attain. Perfect justice is an attribute of God, and of God alone, and because law is made by man, there must always be a gap between the actual works of man and the perfect achievement of the will of God.

<p> This dissertation articulates a practical theology of reconciliation for, with, and by Cuban Catholic exiles through the development of a faith-based structured process of reconciliation&mdash;the Circles of Reconciliation&mdash;that addresses personal reconciliation as the basis for social reconciliation. The Circles of Reconciliation draw on sources of the Christian tradition in dialogue with the empirical sciences and Cuban culture. The Circles provide the space to advance a praxis of reconciliation among Cuban exiles. The reflection that emanates from this process is the basis for the concluding insights on a theology and an ethics of reconciliation for this community.</p>
