Summary/Abstract: This article looks at the counterinsurgency as a negotiation among five groups, namely counterinsurgent force, insurgent force, local population, domestic population and government of the troop sending nation and international community, each of them having their own win-sets. The article argues that pushing the win-sets of all these actors to overlapping, using a comprehensive and multidimensional approach, could lead to the conclusion of the conflict.
