Gayle Smith of the Enough project, who spoke this week at the Northern Uganda Lobby Days, has authored a new report on "containing the crisis in Kenya." She writes, "While the level of violence in the wake of December elections caught many off-guard, it is a not entirely surprising manifestation of intertwined political, economic, and ethnic divisions that have gone untended for decades...A viable peace process must therefore be driven by multidimensional negotiations that address the immediate challenge—the post election dispute—while also focusing on the underlying contradictions that have given rise to this spiraling crisis. At the same time, negotiations must be buttressed by a parallel process of resolution and reconciliation within civil society and supported by an economic development strategy that can deliver a tangible peace dividend."
