| dc.description.abstract | Since the end of three decade civil war in 2009, Sri Lanka is now experiencing post - conflict phase throughout late seven years. During this stage, several implications have been tested in peace building process thus many challenges yet prevail unsolved with regard to sustainability of peace. It is the hypothesis of this research that resolving the root cause of ‘Peace Attitudes’ would persuade to overcome these challenges. “Peace Attitudes” is a constituent element adopted from the ‘Peace Triangle Theory’ which elaborates on the attitudes of peace among the communities after a conflict. Accordingly, the research problem will be focussed on evaluating whether ‘Peace Attitudes’ is the core reason for mitigating the accomplishment of sustainable peace in the post - conflict in Sri Lanka. Eventually, in finding possible solutions to redress this core challenge would also lead to provide counter measures to the uprising minority issues which also play a pivoting role in post - conflict peace setting in Sri Lanka.
The conceptual framework of this study is to evaluate ‘Peace Attitudes’ on the key factors of: recovery of weapons and ammunitions during post - war stage, future of LTTE ex-combatants, Army camps in North and Eastern Provinces, demands for a internal/external self - determination state to North and Eastern Province, linguistic justice. The literature review of this study will be mainly based upon ‘Peace Triangle’ concept with special referent to its one constituent element of ‘Peace Attitudes’. Therefore, this study will rely on both qualitative and quantitative research methodology which will be mainly based on secondary sources of media and internet. Also, the research outcomes would be focus on an explorative analysis rather explanative since this opens a novel passage for future researchers. Ultimately, it is the prime objective of the research outcomes to reinforce the integral motive of integration of Military and Civil professions for a secure nation. | en_US |
