International ethnic conflicts are traditionally the most difficult to resolve. This paper presents a mediation framework assessed by drawing on a large dataset of mediation efforts. Concludes that directive strategies and mediator experience have positive effects on successful conflict management, but prolonged mediation and repeated efforts by the same mediator have a negative effect.
