Peace Resolution In Bangladesh

2995 Words12 Pages

1 Introduction
Conflict at the sub-national level can impede development, can jeopardize human security and can greatly slow the process of peace-building and nation building. The formal end to a conflict, however, does neither guarantee an improvement to the situation nor assure a steady path towards post-conflict development and reconciliation. As such, it is becoming increasingly important to study the nature of a peace process and the actual peace accord reached. Understanding the framework of a peace accord will demonstrate both the overt and underlying concerns of all parties involved in the conflict.

The Ministry, like the RC, however, is yet to evolve as a dynamic institution with a positive role. The Ministry was intended to act as the voice for the CHT institutions and to act as an effective body in influencing national decision-making processes regarding the CHT (Ahmed et al., 2002). To assist the Ministry, an advisory committee was established that consists of a minister in charge of the CHT; chairpersons and representatives for each of the three HDCs; and the three members of parliament that represent those districts. The signed peace accord, however, does not further elaborate on the functions of the Ministry of CHT Affairs. Potentially, it will evolve into an intergovernmental coordinating agency with linkages in the national cabinet as well as in the national parliament (Ahmed et al.,

  • A Separate Peace Strengths And Weaknesses

    Strength develops in someone through their experiences which have the ability to make them an emotionally stronger person. A quote by Ernest Hemingway presents that “the world breaks everyone, then some become strong at the broken places.” Even those who suffer the most will have the ability to bounce back at a stronger state. This theme reveals its relevance in A Separate Peace by John Knowles as we analyze the strengths and weaknesses of the main characters, Finny and Gene. Although some may insist that Finny’s emotional state fits the mold of a weak character, I have confidence that Finny has the most inner strength out of the two boys given his description and actions throughout the novel.
