"The role of reconciliation in resolving internal Arab conflicts (selected examples)"

Abstract

The Arab region is currently facing difficult internal conditions as a result of political and security instability in some Arab countries. The consequences have not been limited to the region alone, but have extended to neighboring countries. Although the outcomes of these events are similar, including chaos, internal strife, and political instability, the causes are varied, some of which are attributable to international and regional interventions, while others are the result of internal factors such as corruption, exclusion, and authoritarian rule.

These events have left behind a large number of casualties, including dead, wounded, and disabled individuals, as well as millions of displaced people. The destruction caused to the infrastructure, oil facilities, and industrial establishments has also resulted in significant damage to the countries' resources. In light of these negative conditions, most parties have realized that the only way out of these crises is through genuine dialogue and reconciliation, not violence. The problems must be diagnosed and treated using healthy means, and all parties must be willing to make sacrifices and concessions to exit these destructive wars and conflicts.

It is also important to learn from the successful experiences of some countries in achieving reconciliation.
