Dinamika Perundingan Damai: Efektivitas Mediasi Internasional Dalam Konflik Sudan Selatan
Keywords:
South Sudan conflict, peace building, mediator roleAbstract
After the independence referendum, South Sudan was in a state of political destabilization that brought it back into conflict. This conflict began with a sense of dissatisfaction with the political elite of the government by an ethnic group in South Sudan. However, over time this conflict then spread into open conflict until it triggered a civil war. This made the international community such as the United Nations, IGAD and several countries provide their involvement to find peaceful efforts in the South Sudan conflict. This research will analyze the role of the UN, IGAD and several countries in finding conflict resolution in the South Sudan conflict. By using the framework of conflict, liberal institutionalism and peacebuilding, the research shows that a conflict will find a peaceful solution if the interests of the parties involved in the conflict are well accommodated. In this case, the mediator role of IGAD in particular, has a key role in the South Sudan conflict.
