| Summary, etc | The analysis of the Liberia peace processes (1990−1996) and (2003) revealed that inclusive commissions (ICs) were instrumental in achieving durable peace (DP). The first process, with only one commission that was not inclusive, failed to bring lasting peace; whereas the second one established seven commissions, four of which were inclusive, and resulted in DP. The paper highlights the contributions of four ICs: Truth and Reconciliation Commission; Independent National Human Rights Commission; Governance Reform Commission; and Contract and Monopolies Commission. These are ensuring continuity between phases of the peace process, building strong connections and trust between track one decision-makers and grassroots-level actors, hence combining breadth and depth of inclusion, and representing excluded social and political groups such as women while maintaining the advantages of an independent commission with technical experts. Furthermore, the paper provides evidence that ICs have the advantage of addressing the root causes of the conflict and delegating unpopular issues to a diverse independent group, thus elevating them beyond political polarization. –Reproduced https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/01925121251356496?_gl=1*1nunk57*_up*MQ..*_ga*NjQ2MzU5MjM0LjE3NzQyNDc4MTk.*_ga_60R758KFDG*czE3NzQyNDc4MTkkbzEkZzEkdDE3NzQyNDc4NDckajMyJGwwJGg0NDc1Njc1MzA. |
