Description
Summary:Succession to monarchical thrones has often generated violent conflicts among royal families in Ghanaian communities. Numerous conflict resolution approaches are often employed by different conflict resolution agencies. Many studies have examined the appropriateness and effectiveness of some of these approaches adopted to resolve chieftaincy conflicts in Ghana. However, to the best of the researchers’ knowledge, the extent to which conflict resolution institutions or agencies collaborate in the resolution of chieftaincy succession conflicts in the specific region of the Bole Traditional Area is less studied. By integrating an inductive thematic analytical approach into collaborative leadership theory, we unpacked a deeper level of disharmonised efforts of multiple conflict resolution agencies in the peace processes in the Bole Traditional Area.
