Pathways to Peace: 34 Comprehensive Peace Agreements from 1989 to 2012

34 cases of comprehensive peace agreements signed between 1989 and 2012, analyzed to understand transitions from intrastate conflict to peace. The dataset, created by İbrahim Kumek, uses fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis to examine conditions like power-sharing and international assistance. It was last updated in February 2026.

Use Cases

• Identify sufficient conditions for lasting peace based on the five explanatory conditions (power-sharing, transitional justice, etc.).
• Test theoretical frameworks on credible commitment mechanisms based on the bargaining model of war.
• Compare typical and irrelevant case studies based on the configurations PS*TR*IP and PS*IA*IP linked to the outcome.

Strengths

• Analyzes 34 specific peace agreement cases, providing a defined scope for comparative study.
• Draws on data from numerous sources, suggesting a multi-source foundation.
• Released under a CC0-1.0 license, allowing for unrestricted reuse.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
