Spatialising Peace and Conflict: Mapping the Production of Places, Sites and Scales of Violence (Paperback or Softback)

This volume brings to the fore the spatial dimension of specific places and sites, and assesses how they condition – and are conditioned by – conflict and peace processes. By marrying spatial theories with theories of peace and conflict, the contributors propose a new research agenda to investigate where peace and conflict take place.
