Usually defined as the use of an impartial third party to facilitate direct negotiations, with the key aim of achieving peace through conflict resolution. The traditional outsider-neutral model uses a mediator who has no connection or commitment to any of the conflicting parties. The professional distance and the lack emotional connection that are provided by an unbiased mediator create legitimacy and authority. An example of the outsider-neutral model can be seen in Sri Lanka, with the use of a Norwegian Mediator for negotiations between the Tamil rebels and the Sri Lanka government. Another type of mediation is the insider-partial model, which is considered more relevant when complex [[norms]], [[values]], and beliefs play a dominant role in the conflict. The success of this model is dependent on cultural and normative closeness and therefore some involvement in the conflict environment.
