Zusammenfassung
The project sought to deepen current understanding on how to overcome intractable conflicts. It equips intervening parties with knowledge to boost their efforts for greater results. Intractable conflicts are conflicts that stay for long and refuse to go even when the best available techniques are applied. At times, they last for decades. Given that a lot of methods have been repeatedly tried on them without success, the need for new techniques has been a priority. This work investigated what happens when a society in conflict and another experiencing peace come together. Using Denmark and Somalia as research samples, it studied connections between Danes and Somalis residing in Denmark, noting how and in what ways, intractable conflicts are affected by such connections. To be brief, only one of our findings will be shared: the peace in one of the societies positively affected the conflict in the other through different flows.
