“The principles that should guide conflict prevention – human rights, security, respect for boundaries, human development, reconciliation – are numerous and sometimes contradictory, and each is difficult to realise fully. It is important not merely to prevent violence but to address the problems that provoke it. Otherwise, the peace may maintain existing power relations. The involvement and empowerment of local actors is vital not only because of their knowledge of local complexities but also because they are more likely to be accountable to the society in which they live than international actors.” – Barnett R. Rubin, Prevention: Concept and Scope, 2002
