In the early 2000s, Qatar made its mark by mediating an array of disputes in the Middle East. By the 2020s, it was again on the global radar for its role in high-profile ceasefires and landmark peace agreements, notably the U.S.-Taliban deal and negotiations during the 2023-5 Gaza war. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMilton and Elkahlout offer a wide-ranging conceptual and on-the-ground analysis of Qatar's emergence, retreat and reemergence in the international arena, tracing its evolving mediation strategies in conflicts across Lebanon, Darfur, Afghanistan and the Gaza Strip. Drawing on a unique qualitative dataset assembled through a major documentation project, the study illuminates how Qatar leveraged its diplomatic, political and economic resources to position itself as an influential third-party mediator. In doing so, it reveals both the motivations behind Qatar's peacemaking initiatives and the broader implications of its rising profile for the changing global landscape of conflict mediation.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSansom Milton\u003c\/strong\u003e is Senior Research Fellow at the Center for Conflict and Humanitarian Studies, Qatar.
