Precarious peacebuilding: friction in global–local encounters

Annika Björkdahl, Kristine Höglund · 1 Sep 2013

How can we understand the processes and outcomes that arise from frictional encounters in peacebuilding? This special issue contributes to ongoing debates on the precariousness of peacebuilding, by introducing the term friction as a way to capture and analyse the conflictual dimensions of global–local encounters. We envisage six responses – compliance, adoption, adaptation, co-option, resistance…

International peacebuilding goes local: analysing Lederach's conflict transformation theory and its ambivalent encounter with 20 years of practice

Thania Paffenholz · 16 May 2013

This article examines how peacebuilding theory has influenced the shift from the international to the ‘local’ in the practice of international peacebuilding and analyses the consequences for local communities, international peacebuilding practice and critical peacebuilding research. The results demonstrate that transformative peacebuilding theories, in particular John Paul Lederach's work, have enormously influenced the policy discourse…

Peacebuilding and the politics of non-linearity: rethinking ‘hidden’ agency and ‘resistance’

David Chandler · 19 Feb 2013

First, it makes the case for examining the age-specific as well as gender-, and…

Peacebuilding, the local and the international: a colonial or a postcolonial rationality?

Vivienne Jabri · 19 Feb 2013

There is much debate in the peacebuilding literature on the question of agency and its locations. Given the interventionist context of peacebuilding operations and the overwhelming presence of ‘internationals’ on the scene, the ‘local’ factor might easily be seen as being subsumed at best and totally negated at worst. Operations of peacebuilding can be interpreted…
