International Peacebuilding and Local Resistance : Hybrid Forms of Peace PDF
by Kenneth A. Loparo
Part of the Rethinking Peace and Conflict Studies series
Description
International Peacebuilding and Local Resistance adds to the active debates and critiques of internationally-supported peace interventions.
Using the case studies of Afghanistan, Iraq, Bosnia, Lebanon and Northern Ireland, Roger Mac Ginty dissects peace interventions along the themes of security, statebuilding and civil society as well as economic and constitutional reform.
He proposes using the concepts of hybridity and hybridization to understand the dynamics in societies undergoing transition.
Particular attention is paid to the ability of local communities to resist, subvert and exploit international actors.
This book is part of a developing and radical critique of aspects of international peacebuilding.
It argues that peace should not be discussed timidly, and that local, traditional or indigenous approaches to peacemaking should not be romanticised.
