  • Social Integration / Disintegration in Post- Communist Societies
    Social integration / disintegration in post- communist societies Reintegrating communities in the North Caucasus – successes and challenges Achieving progress toward a long-term resolution to the crisis requires not just restoring damaged infrastructure and paying compensations, but also - working with peoples minds, bringing peacebuilding activities down from the conference tables into the field on the level of local communities and to the people directly affected by violent conflict. Peace dialogue is one of the key techniques for such a task. Large scale military conflicts in the North Caucasus: .Ossetian-Ingush conflict –nearly 12 years .Chechen crisis –will be 10 years soon Other cases of violence and terrorist acts are more and more affecting different North Caucasus regions –outside the borders of Chechnya. Protecting the Providing Ensuring long- conflict-affected security for the term recovery, population, population and reconciliation, responding to state, which is creating “peace of urgent the primary the minds” humanitarian responsibility through dialog: needs - addressed of the state jointly by the addressed by non- state & the state actors better international than by the state community Violent conflict is not always the result of intentional and thought through activities of specific actors. In intrastate conflicts the role of spontaneous and occasional factors becomes more important. In such a situation both outside actors and especially - local civil society institutions being mobile and capable of immediate intervention can play an important, and sometimes decisive, role. An initiative undertaken in the right place and at the right time may channel a conflict towards a nonviolent form. An ongoing peace dialogue process is a crucial element of success in such a situation.
