Description
This dialogue aims to leading the debate forward on the emerging practice and theory of "peace infrastructures". The lead author and the respondents each give examples of peace infrastructures that they have been involved in as practitioners and/or academics, inviting for joint reflection on past experiences and possible practices for the future.
Drawing from examples from Sri Lanka, Nepal, South Africa, Colombia, Lebanon and Cyprus, to name a few, the authors of this volume discusses whether and how peace should be given "an address"-and if so, how we best can support peace infrastructures while avoiding pitfalls.
The contributors enriches the debate on how we as practitioners and academics can proceed with thinking, conceptualizing and what to be aware of when engaging with the development of peace infrastructures
