The Road from LaPalma. Analysis of the Potential for a Negotiated Solution in El Salvador.

Abstract

The crises in El Salvador has evolved through several distinct bargaining phases. Each phase has involved the interaction/conflict between various political power contenders, resulting in a reassessment of relative positions and a new phase. This has led to the present condition in which the major actors are realizing that need for limited concessions and a peaceful settlement outweigh the potential gains and costs of continued conflict. This thesis is a study of the historical and cultural bases of bargaining powers in El Salvador, and how they have been utilized and transformed within each socio-political power faction in reaching the present situation, and what it portends for the future.
