Talking while fighting [WP1087]

Civil war and civil disruption: the need to engage in dialogue with the very people with who conflict is occurring. We examine the history of talking while fighting, pre-conditions for dialogue and ask why an upsurge in fighting just before talks begin.

Recorded in December 2010 during our meeting on dialoge with the Taliban. Meeting details:http://ow.ly/5Mo1O
