Yet the rethinking of notions of national sovereignty, the increasing minority-rights jurisprudence and the development of anti-essentialist concepts of identity in recent times have begun to indicate new policy instruments which might better allow such conflicts to be managed in the twenty-first century. However, policy lags behind intellectual innovations, and the predominant approach of the international community remains for the moment significantly more conservative in character.
