Policy options discussed by decision makers inside and outside
Somalia are based primarily on global and regional security
concerns. They tend to overlook the local complexities and the
potential for nonviolent conflict transformation that exist in the
context. In particular, the black listing of al-Shaabab prevents one
of the main stakeholders to participate in the mainstream political
process and discourages interest in dialogue from all sides.
There is a scarcity of alternative perspectives among policy makers that could
encourage the design of an inclusive peace process in Somalia.
These challenges are presented and analysed in a series of
articles that has come out of collaboration between the Life & Peace
Institute and the Kroc Institute of International Peace Studies at
the University of Notre Dame, USA.
The intention with this book is to present an overview of first decade of the Gothenburg process (the two main aspects of the Gothenburg process are: the focus is on the licit transfer of convensional arms, and the aim is to include all the different actors involved, that is, also the military industry and those who buy and might use the weapons), what has been done so far, why and how.
