| Summary/Abstract |
This article examines the 40-year history of post-conflict reintegration of the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP) in Sri Lanka. This case study demonstrates that post-civil war reintegration can be as complex and important to peace following an outright military victory as following a formally negotiated settlement. This finding challenges a dominant assumption in the civil wars literature: that decisive military victories create a simpler and more enduring peace because they remove the complexities of reintegration. As this example and others warn, if one examines a war-torn society through a five, ten or 20-year timeframe, then a military victory can appear a powerful agent of peaceful stability, negating the reintegration requirements of negotiated settlements. But if one applies a lens of 40 years or more, then a picture of repetitive violence can emerge that seriously questions the efficacy of military victory in securing long-term peaceful stability. Instead, as in cases of negotiated settlement, it is the complex dynamics of reintegration that come to the fore as a core condition for durable peace.

| Summary/Abstract |
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry has done an admirable job of creating an "architecture of peace" to support the negotiations launched in July 2013. He engineered the appointment of retired U.S. General John Allen to delve deeply into Israel's security requirements following a peace treaty, recognizing that the security dilemmas would range far beyond the immediate challenges of securing an Israeli-Palestinian border. Kerry understood that Israel's readiness to take the risks associated with withdrawal from the Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPT) would be influenced directly by the degree to which Israel's security requirements were taken into account.

| Summary/Abstract |
After three days of talks in Vienna, Iran and six world powers agreed last month on a framework and timetable to guide the first four months of negotiations on a comprehensive deal on Iran's nuclear program. EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton, who leads the negotiating team for the six-country group known as the P5+1 (China, France, Germany, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the United States), said in a Feb. 20 statement that the parties had "identified all of the issues" to be addressed in the comprehensive agreement. An official who was briefed on the talks told Arms Control Today in a Feb. 20 e-mail that this is not a "written agenda" but an "understanding of the issues that must be covered." The official, who is from a P5+1 country, said that most of the discussions were on process but that "some substance was covered." The Feb. 18-20 meetings marked the resumption of political-level negotiations between Iran and the P5+1, following a Nov. 24 agreement on a plan of action, which laid out initial steps for each side to take and the broad parameters to guide negotiations on the comprehensive deal.
