Description

Additional Information

The study examines the development and resolution of six conflict incidents in ethnically mixed Divisional Secretariat divisions in Puttalam, selected for their diversity, their stages of resolution, and the parties involved. The study examines the dual impact of the sudden influx of IDPs – the dominant view in the host community that this influx created the foundation for conflict by increasing the competition for resources in the area, and the contribution made by the IDPs towards the local economy. There is further examination of other issues which added to the complexity of the conflicts and often made their resolution more tenuous and difficult. These included factors such as identity, land, and political power. There is also detailed discussion of the local socio-economic situation. The study analyses various local mechanisms for dispute resolution including administrative structures, legal institutions, development institutions, religious leaders and organizations and Peace Committees examining their impact and effectiveness in dealing with local conflicts.
