Author: Roger Mac Ginty
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030464334
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 489
Book Description
This unique companion is a much-needed guide for those who are embarking on field research in conflict-affected countries.

In the book, over thirty scholars reflect on the complexity of dealing with human subjects in conflict-affected contexts. This indispensable book provides insider knowledge and gives confidence to researchers - both those at the very start of their careers or during their studies, and experienced researchers who want to consider positionality, responsibility and the moral obligation of the researcher in new ways. Essential reading for students and scholars embarking upon fieldwork in International Relations, Politics, Sociology, Political Geography and Anthropology.

The Cambridge Companion to Tolstoy
Author: Donna Tussing Orwin
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521520003
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
Best known for his great novels, War and Peace and Anna Karenina, Tolstoy remains one the most important nineteenth-century writers; throughout his career which spanned nearly three quarters of a century, he wrote fiction, journalistic essays and educational textbooks. The specially commissioned essays in The Cambridge Companion to Tolstoy do justice to the sheer volume of Tolstoy s writing. Key dimensions of his writing and life are explored in essays focusing on his relationship to popular writing, the issue of gender and sexuality in his fiction and his aesthetics. The introduction provides a brief, unified account of the man, for whom his art was only one activity among many. The volume is well supported by supplementary material including a detailed guide to further reading and a chronology of Tolstoy s life, the most comprehensive compiled in English to date. Altogether the volume provides an invaluable resource for students and scholars alike.

The Companion for Women Mediating Armed Conflict in Communities
Author: Alice Nderitu
Publisher: Mdahalo Bridging Divides
ISBN: 9789966190369
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 470
Book Description
It is very difficult for a woman mediator to lead communities to the point of signing a peace agreement. It is even more difficult to implement it. Being a woman mediator of armed conflict is one of the loneliest jobs in the world. As Jacqueline O'Neill cites in the Foreword of this book, women comprise only 2% of mediators of armed conflict in the world. Therefore, women mediators of such conflicts can rarely benefit from sounding boards and peers with whom to share their day-to-day experiences. This Companion is primarily for women, but it is relevant across genders. The spoken and written word is a powerful medium for conveying the messages women use in peace processes, and it is important that positive images are conveyed to all genders. This Companion is designed to help people of all genders who are participating in a peace process. If women mediators of armed conflict can learn to detect gender and other forms of discrimination in the dialogues that they lead or are engaged in, they will then be in a position to transfer that knowledge to all genders in their communities, and ultimately apply it into their everyday lives. Likewise, The Companion provides the language to use in discussing gender discrimination within a peace process, and also a way to interact among the dialogue participants when issues of gender discrimination occur.
