Abstract
Despite a considerable body of knowledge that examines the negative effects of aid
and related social services during civil wars, the role these same services can
contribute to conflict management and transformation is less well understood. This
article describes findings from a research study undertaken by the author to examine
this question through a comparison of experiences with respect to social service
provision in three very different conflicts – Northern Ireland, Tajikistan and Sudan. It
discusses the ways that aid and social service provision can change structural
conditions, making mediation efforts more likely. It also considers the limitations of
aid’s effectiveness in this regard.
