“…Related to this diversification of the actors involved in peace mediation, which has intensified over the past two decades, peace mediation can be described as an increasingly specialized and professionalized task. Whereas peace mediation used to be a largely ad hoc endeavour carried out by politicians or diplomats, and approaches to mediation varied greatly, important efforts have been made to institutionalize and standardize this activity (Splinter and L€ uttmann 2014). The most evident example consists in the publication of the United Nations' Guidance for Effective Mediation in 2012 (United Nations 2012) and in the institutionalization of mediation activities within the United Nations, in particular through the establishment of the Mediation Support Unit in 2006.…”

International peace mediators operate within a normative universe constituted of interrelated, overlapping and evolving norms. They are constantly involved in the application, creation and adaptation of different norms, whether consciously or unconsciously, explicitly or implicitly. This article interrogates the increasingly complex normative dimensions of peace mediation and, especially, the ways in which peace mediators navigate and translate different norms. It seeks to fill two significant gaps in the existing literature. With respect to the emerging literature on norms in peace mediation, the article innovates by drawing on critical legal pluralism. Through this approach, and by building on legal-anthropological work on transnational human rights norms as well as on recent empirical studies on peace mediators, the article also adds to the existing international relations scholarship on norms and norm translation, which has not focused on mediation as a site, or on the involvement of mediators as a form of agency.
