This Conference Paper brings together analytical and practical insights into the question of elections as a peace building instrument in post-conflict societies. On the one hand, it tackles structural, macro-level issues like the relevance of elections within the liberal peace paradigm and the relationship between violence and elections. On the other hand it gives more practical, process and actors-related insights on how to include conflict sensitivity in electoral support or how the international community can best use elections as a peace building instrument.
