This work examines the ideas, assumptions and theories that underpin how leaders of parties in intractable conflicts begin and sustain a process of peacemaking by offering to their adversaries olive branches in more modern terms symbolic gestures, concessions, tension reducing moves or confidence building measures. It discusses means of overcoming political and psychological barriers to accurate communication, trust building, domestic consensus formation, and ripe conditions for conciliation, suggesting practical guidelines for accommodation.
