Hybrid Forms of Peace From Everyday Agency to Post-Liberalism

This book examines the role of everyday action in accepting, resisting and reshaping interventions, and the unique forms of peace that emerge from the interactions between local and international actors. Building on critiques of liberal peace-building, it redefines critical peace and conflict studies. Based on new research from 16 countries.
