The uncertainty of the effectiveness of external intervention in strengthening peace agreements among conflicting parties especially in the context of Sri Lanka. Where inspite of the incentives (Political and Financial), the level of mistrust between the Sri Lankan government and the LTTE; as well as the internal nature of Sri Lankan Politics in which groups (Tamil) have been denied equal power, rights and status in the allocation of resources to their own productive capacity has presented a formidable obstacle to peace process. Albeit, the violent hostility between ethnic groups has ceased, there still exist nonviolent conflict among conflicting parties. Therefore a critical intervening and resolution factor must put into consideration and take cognizance of this policy perspective, because violent struggle between ethnic groups are only but an aspect of political violence. Violent conflicts also exist within groups and are most times as a result of the failure of the state to perform its fundamental tasks. Redistribution, with this consciousness within and among groups is key to solidarity between them and the failure is capable of triggering the eruption of political violence.
