  • South Asia Democratic Forum

After the end of a decades-long violent conflict, the Sri Lankan government has been faced with the task to reintegrate tens of thousands of refugees and Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs). At the occasion of his visit in Brussels, the Hon. Minister of Prisons, Rehabilitation and Resettlement, D. M. Swaminathan M.P., accepted our invitation to be the keynote speaker on the national reconciliation process in the post conflict context. He will speak on the latest developments in reconciliation, such as the impact of the government’s permanent housing programme for conflict affected families and other projects which are directed to facilitating resettlement and reintegration of ex-combatants, refugees and IDPs. This conference is designed as a follow up of SADF’s 2015 “Post Electoral Briefing” with His Excellency Mr Rodney Perera, Ambassador of Sri Lanka to the EU, and our 2016 event on women’s role in the peace and reconciliation process with the keynote speech being offered by Hon. Madam President Chandrika Bandaranaike Kumaratunga. This year’s conference will include the participations of Ms Caroline Vinot, Head of the EEAS South Asia Division, Ms Régine Vandriessche, Director Asia-Pacific at the Belgian Foreign Ministry, Dr Christian Wagner, Senior Fellow at the Stiftung für Wissenschaft und Politik (SWP), Berlin, Germany, as well as Mr Brian Toll, Researcher on Europe-Asia relations.

  • Reforming Sri Lankan Presidentialism: Provenance, Problems and Prospects Volume 2
    Reforming Sri Lankan Presidentialism: Provenance, Problems and Prospects Edited by Asanga Welikala Volume 2 18 Failure of Quasi-Gaullist Presidentialism in Sri Lanka Suri Ratnapala Constitutional Choices Sri Lanka’s Constitution combines a presidential system selectively borrowed from the Gaullist Constitution of France with a system of proportional representation in Parliament. The scheme of proportional representation replaced the ‘first past the post’ elections of the independence constitution and of the first republican constitution of 1972. It is strongly favoured by minority parties and several minor parties that owe their very existence to proportional representation. The elective executive presidency, at least initially, enjoyed substantial minority support as the president is directly elected by a national electorate, making it hard for a candidate to win without minority support. (Sri Lanka’s ethnic minorities constitute about 25 per cent of the population.) However, there is a growing national consensus that the quasi-Gaullist experiment has failed. All major political parties have called for its replacement while in opposition although in government, they are invariably seduced to silence by the fruits of office. Assuming that there is political will and ability to change the system, what alternative model should the nation embrace? Constitutions of nations in the modern era tend fall into four categories. 1.! Various forms of authoritarian government. These include absolute monarchies (emirates and sultanates of the Islamic world), personal dictatorships, oligarchies, theocracies (Iran) and single party rule (remaining real or nominal communist states). 2.! Parliamentary government based on the Westminster system with a largely ceremonial constitutional monarch or president. Most Western European countries, India, Japan, Israel and many former British colonies have this model with local variations.
