摘要

本文件询问了马诺河流域发生侵略、暴力和社会混乱之后,特别是在该地区最近恢复民主之后所使用的谈判和调解技巧。虽然和平基本上已经恢复,但该盆地零星但持续发生的侵略、暴力和社会破坏事件,对谈判和调解技术的可行性提出了质疑。这些技术的成败影响着该地区国家、个人和社会结构的可持续性。因此,本文认为,谈判和调解问题的伦理、道德和历史层面,特别是传统机构和民间社会机构作为解决冲突的关键组成部分的作用,没有得到足够的重视。有鉴于此,本文提请注意“进口”谈判和调解技术中存在的一些差距和挑战,这些技术利用了将非洲的违法行为证明为“种族和种族”的手段。该文件利用二手数据并借鉴西非马诺河流域国家的个人经验,还提出了关于谈判和调解技术与解决冲突之间关系的关键问题以及迄今为止吸取的经验教训。它还提出了解决谈判和调解技术的这些方面的方法,作为提出备选方案的基础,这些备选方案可能会减少诉诸欺骗,鼓励对话和包容性参与,并增加该地区和非洲实现和平的机会。

Mano River Basin: An Evaluation of Negotiation and Mediation Techniques
This paper interrogates the negotiation and mediation techniques that was used following aggression, violence and social disruptions in Mano River basin, particularly against the recent return to democracy in the region. While peace has largely been restored, the scattered but continuing incidence of aggression, violence and social disruptions in the Basin has raised questions about the viability of negotiation and mediation techniques. The success or failure of these techniques has effect on the sustainability of State, individual and social structures in the region. Therefore, the paper argues that enough attention has not been paid to the ethical, moral and historical dimensions of the problem of negotiation and mediation, especially the role of traditional institutions and civil society agencies as critical components in con lict resolution. Given this, the paper draws attention to some of the gaps and challenges embedded in ‘imported’ negotiation and mediation techniques that leverage the certi ication of con licts in Africa as being “ethnic and racial”. Using secondary data and drawing on personal experiences in the Mano River Basin (MRB) countries in West Africa, the paper also raises critical questions about the relationship between negotiation and mediation techniques and con lict resolution and the lessons learned so far. It also suggests ways of addressing those aspects of negotiation and mediation techniques de icits as a basis for suggesting options that will likely reduce recourse to con licts, encourage dialogue and inclusive participation, as well as increase the chances for peace in the region and Africa.
