As a vulnerable process,
peacebuilding depends on the interaction of numerous dynamics. Various factors
such as the political will of political leaders, attitudes of conflicting
parties, international circumstances and roles of third-parties profoundly
influence peace processes in confuct-ridden societies. In this regard, this
article focuses on the historical development of the Philippines peace process
and examines the impact of presidents on the peace process between 1976 and
2016. Procedurally, based on the analysis of official declaration and documents
as well as the search of the existing literature, this article shows that the
policies of negotiation and/or armed struggle conducted by the six presidents
had a primary impact on the course of the peace process in the Philippines.

Öz

Kırılgan
bir süreç olarak barış inşası pek çok dinamiğin etkileşimine dayanmaktadır.
Siyasi liderlerin iradesi, çatışan tarafların tutumları, uluslararası koşullar
ve üçüncü tarafların rolleri gibi çeşitli etkenler çatışma yaşayan toplumlarda
barış süreçlerini derinden etkilemektedir. Bu bağlamda, bu makale Filipinler
barış sürecinin tarihsel gelişimine odaklanmakta ve 1976-2016 yılları arasında
devlet başkanlarının barış sürecine etkisini incelemektedir. Yöntemsel olarak
mevcut literatür taraması ile resmî açıklama ve dokümanların analizine dayanan
bu makale, altı devlet başkanın izlediği müzakere ve/veya silahlı mücadele
politikalarının barış sürecinin seyri üzerinde asli bir etkiye sahip olduğunu
göstermektedir.
