Using Conflict Resolution through Mediation to Address Problems that Might Arise with Decentralisation
As Ukraine continues its decentralisation process, there will inevitably be problems between the central government in Kyiv and the local village councils to which some powers are being devolved. Such conflicts can severely impact the success of the process as well as engender resentment towards the central government. Research indicates that a model for political conflict resolution – the methods and processes involved in facilitating the peaceful ending of conflict and retribution – exists in many countries. In China, for example, it is important that the solution is a “win-win” for the participants, that is, both sides of the conflict gain from its resolution. One successful model for conflict resolution is the use of trained neutral mediation from a Mediation Office or a similar body. This paper recommends exploring the concept of a Mediation Office as a possible option for Ukraine.
