The Berghof Handbook for Conflict Transformation is a comprehensive and cumulative website resource that provides continually updated cutting-edge knowledge, experience and lessons learned for those working in the field of transforming violent ethnopolitical conflict. The website content comes from two central resources: 1) commissioned Articles by leading experts from current practice and scholarship; and 2) a Dialogue Series on key issues, in which practitioners and scholars critically engage and debate with one another in light of their varying experience. Dialogues, along with a 2004 and a 2011 version of the main body of the Handbook, are also distributed in print.
The Berghof Handbook is not attempting to summarise the consolidated knowledge of a well-established discipline. It is an effort to draw attention to established practices and concepts, as well as to thorny issues and challenges. Instead of presenting a collection of recipes or ready-made tools, our goal is to put these established practices into a broader conceptual framework in order to understand their functions, strengths and weaknesses. http://www.berghof-handbook.net/

South Caucasus: 20 Years of Independence
South Caucasus: 20 Years of Independence
28.11.11
20 years ago Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan achieved independence from the Soviet Union. On this occasion, the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung (FES) has asked authors from Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Russia, Turkey, EU and the USA to take a look back on two eventful decades and explore the challenges for the coming years. The outcome is a book in which the multilayered problems of the South Caucasus are thoroughly analysed. The publication was presented on November 24th 2011 in Berlin and can be downloaded here in English and Russian.
