The articles contained in this volume were produced from to time over a period during which Sri Lanka’s sovereignty, territorial integrity, democratic governance and peace were seriously imperiled. In the author’s perceptions, there is now a glimmer of hope that the darkest hours of grief and despair are receding into the past and that the nation could reach out to a new dawn of tranquility and well-being for its people. Yet, he states that the journey ahead is arduous, and is featured by formidable hazards and obstacles the surmounting of which would require a clear understanding both of the relevant experiences from the country’s past efforts in war and peace as well as of the true nature of the challenges that lie ahead. It is in order to contribute towards such an understanding that the present volume is being published.
The volume focuses on a wide range of issues that have continued to figure prominently in the realm of public debate and discussion. Its essays represent a classic blend of scholarly erudition, professional expertise and the clarity of thought of an extraordinarily incisive mind. Its author, Deshamanya H L de Silva, President’s Counsel, is an illustrious jurist well known for both his awe-inspiring professional successes as well as his selfless and unyielding commitment to the principles of justice and democratic governance.
