The Chronic and the Entrenched: Ethno-Religious Violence in Sri Lanka
The Chronic and the Entrenched: Ethno-religious Violence in Sri Lanka Gehan Gunatilleke The Chronic and The democratic transition of January 2015 promised an end to ethno-religious violence in Sri Lanka. Yet, more than two years later, this promise is yet to be realised. Despite the change of government, chronic violence against religious minorities has continued the Entrenched: throughout the country. This phenomenon prompts further reflection on what drives ethno-religious violence in Sri Lanka. It points to the possibility that some forms of violence stem from deep-seated prejudices and beliefs that are not dependent on Ethno-Religious governmental support, and cannot be transformed through democratic transitions alone; it points to the potentially entrenched nature of communal violence in contemporary Sri Lanka. Violence in This study delves into the post-January 2015 context in Sri Lanka and examines how Sri Lanka ethno-religious violence has persisted, particularly in its chronic form. It discusses factors that entrench such violence: the Sinhala-Buddhist entitlement complex and existential fears, and the exceptionalism afforded to the Buddhist clergy. Each of these factors fundamentally shapes the nature of the Sri Lankan state, and its capacity and willingness to advance religious freedom. The study also reflects on the inadequacy of current approaches to combating ethno-religious violence in Sri Lanka. It concludes by assessing the need for a process of cultural transformation that confronts the root causes of such violence. Gehan Gunatilleke is an attorney-at-law and doctoral student in international human rights law at the University of Oxford.
