After a decade of civil war and a three-year transition, Burundi held its first successful post-war democratic elections in August of 2005. The elections are just one, albeit important step, toward lasting peace. For the first time since independence, a violent dispute over power among Hutu parties has eclipsed the traditional Hutu-Tutsi interethnic conflict as the elections left some key political figures with uncertain futures. To ensure the continuation of the peace process the Burundian government must reach out to both the Hutu and Tutsi parties that lost in the elections while simultaneously continuing the peace building process by establishing mechanisms for justice and reconciliation, bringing the last remaining rebel group - the FNL - into the fold, and building institutions of good governance.
