This publication talks of politics of state and market reforms in Sri Lanka using Sri Lanka’s failed attempt at negotiating peace with the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam towards liberal peace. Sri Lanka is seen as a critical case that demonstrates key characteristics and shortcomings of liberal peace, vividly demonstrated by internationally facilitated elite negotiations and donor funded neo-liberal development.
