Abstract

This paper examines recent negotiations regarding the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. The conflict escalated into a full-scale war in 2022 following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Using qualitative descriptive study and document analysis using Faure’s deadlock framework, this research identifies several indicators which show the negotiation between Russia and Ukraine for resolving their conflict has reached a deadlocked situation. This research also found that several factors such as cognitive, structural, and behavioural factor is causing the deadlock within the negotiations. The findings suggest that these factors are creating a condition where no substantive result and repeated arguments happened, which is indicators that the negotiation has reached a deadlocked condition. These findings also give implications towards the negotiation dynamics between two party, suggesting several strategies needed to overcome the deadlock within the negotiations. This research contributes to the limited amount of discourse regarding the negotiation conditions that occurred between Russia and Ukraine for resolving their conflict, offering a new perspective by applying Faure’s indicators and factors such as Cognitive, Structural, and Behaviour towards this issue.

Abstract

Despite being hailed as a post-conflict success story following the 1992 Rome General Peace Accords, Mozambique has relapsed into recurring cycles of violence, including the recent insurgency in Cabo Delgado. This study investigated the fragility of this peace construction by analyzing the structural causes of conflict through the lens of John Burton’s Need-Based Conflict Theory (1991). Adopting a Systematic Literature Analysis (SLA) based on PRISMA guidelines, the research synthesizes findings from ten key academic articles published between 2020–2025. The analysis reveals that post-war stability was merely a negative peace characterized by elite settlements that failed to address non-negotiable human needs. Specifically, the findings highlight critical deficits in four dimensions, distributive justice due to elite resource capture; identity suppressed by hegemonic national narratives; security biased toward strategic assets over human safety; and recognition denied to victims and marginalized groups. The study concludes that sustainable peace in Mozambique requires a paradigm shift from managerial conflict settlement to structural conflict resolution that satisfies these fundamental ontological needs, particularly regarding economic fairness and cultural inclusion.
