LIVING POLITICS AFTER WAR

New Approaches to Conflict Analysis

Series editors: Peter Lawler (School of Social Sciences, University of Manchester United Kingdom) and Emmanuel-Pierre Guittet (Centre for Conflict, Liberty and Security, CCLS, Paris France)

Until recently, the study of conflict and conflict resolution remained comparatively immune to broad developments in social and political theory. When the changing nature and locus of large-scale conflict in the post-Cold War era is also taken into account, the case for a reconsideration of the fundamentals of conflict analysis and conflict resolution becomes all the more stark.

New Approaches to Conflict Analysis promotes the development of new theoretical insights and their application to concrete cases of large-scale conflict, broadly defined. The series intends not to ignore established approaches to conflict analysis and conflict resolution, but to contribute to the reconstruction of the field through a dialogue between orthodoxy and its contemporary critics. Equally, the series reflects the contemporary porosity of intellectual borderlines rather than simply perpetuating rigid boundaries around the study of conflict and peace. New Approaches to Conflict Analysis seeks to uphold the normative commitment of the field's founders yet also recognises that the moral impulse to research is properly part of its subject matter. To these ends, the series is comprised of the highest quality work of scholars drawn from throughout the international academic community, and from a wide range of disciplines within the social sciences.

This work was supported by the European Institutes for Advanced Study Fellowship Programme and the European Commission (Marie-Sklodowska-Curie Actions, COFUND Program, FP7), at the Netherlands Institute for Advanced Study in the Humanities and Social Sciences (NIAS), the Ryoichi Sasakawa Young Leaders Fellowship Fund Program at Uppsala University, and the Varieties of Peace research program (Riksbankens Jubileumsfond M160297:1). Data collection was made possible through stipends from Borbos Erik Hansson, Atmerstiftelsen, and Sederholms, and the Skytte Foundation generously funded a manuscript workshop.

I am very grateful for the many people who have discussed and commented on my work in its various stages: Abbey Steele, Anna Ida Rock, Anna Jarstad, Ben Oppenheim, Enzo Nussio, Gyda Mars Sindre, Ingrid Samset, Jan Willem Duyvendak, Jaremey McMullin, Jason Klocek, Jenny Jansson, Joanna Britton, John Spall, Julia Jennstl, Katrin Uba, Kim Wale, Kristin Ljungkvist, Lalli Metsola, Lennart Bolliger, Li Bennich-Bjrkman, Maartje Abbenhuis, Malin kebo, Markus Holdo, Matthew Hoye, Moa Mrtensson, Nikkie Wiegink, Nina Wiln, Preeti Chopra, Ralph Sprenkels, Remco Raben, Roxane Farmanfarmaian, Sandra Hkansson, Steven Wilkinson, Teije Hidde Donker and Zoe Marks. It is wonderful to be part of such a generous and incisive research community; thank you for sharing and thinking with me.

The work benefited greatly from discussions within the Folke Bernadotte Academy Research Working Group, at the Peace and Conflict Studies in Anthropology meeting in Amsterdam, and at NIAS, also in Amsterdam. In particular, I want to stress how important my time at NIAS, the cohort and support staff, were to the completion of this manuscript. I miss you all!

I also want to thank Enzo Nussio, Stefan Quiroga Fajardo, Maria Camila Perez Bonila, Usdin Leonardo Martnez Orellanos, Natalia Gutirrez Trujillo, Arlene B. Tickner, Patricia Bohrquez and Ana Maria Rodriguez Alfonso for their help in Colombia, and to Johannes Shekeni, Sylvia Shimaneni, Dula Tulimevava and Julia Heimo for their help in Namibia. Finally, I am clearly indebted and grateful to all those who were willing to share their life after war with me.

Independently of the path that each one of us decided to follow, or the different actions we took during the militant period, our way of thinking and acting has a trace of the times when we were militants.
