The present book uses Sri Lanka’s failed attempt at negotiating peace with the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, to examine the politics of state and market reforms towards liberal peace. Sri Lanka is seen as a critical case that demonstrates key characteristics and shortcomings of liberal peace, vividly demonstrated by internationally facilitated elite negotiations and donor-funded neoliberal development.

‘‘Liberal Peace in Question’ addresses critically, exhaustively, and in-depth [the] consequences and implications [of the liberal peace model in Sri Lanka], highlighting the importance of undertaking a critical evaluation of what went wrong in a process that raised such high expectations and ended in such a dramatic way. […] This book constitutes an important contribution to this much-needed debate.’ —María Villellas Ariño, Norwegian Peacebuilding Resource Centre Book Review
