| dc.description.abstract | Sri Lanka underwent a major political transition in 2015 with the election of President
Maithripala Sirisena and the establishment of a new coalition government between the
United Front for Good Governance (UNFGG) and one faction of the United Peoples’
Freedom Alliance (UPFA). The Sri Lanka Strategic Assessment analyses six spheres of contestation within this political context, and assesses their impact in terms of securing peace and accelerating inclusive growth in the future. These spheres of contestation have been identified and classified along two axes: horizontal contestation and vertical contestation. The former deals with contestation within and between communities, while the latter deals with contestation between the Sri Lankan state and citizens. | en_US |
