Culture, peace and conflict in the Nineveh Plains
While the local turn in peacebuilding emphasises locally-informed interventions, translating this rhetoric into meaningful practice remains a significant challenge. Cultural and heritage-based approaches offer potential for bottom-up peacebuilding but are critiqued for being inadequately evidenced and insensitive to the culture-conflict-power nexus. This article addresses these gaps through a mixed-methods study in the Nineveh Plains, Iraq, utili…
Towards a Framework for Integrating Intangible Cultural Heritage Safeguarding and Peacebuilding
This article explores the intersection of cultural heritage and peacebuilding, focusing on how safeguarding intangible cultural heritage (ICH) can contribute to peace in conflict-affected societies. Building on a project in the occupied Palestinian territory, we propose a framework that integrates ICH safeguarding practices—recording, transmission, and capacity-building—with the peacebuilding domains of security, political inclusion, socio-econom…
Heritage as a bellwether for Peace
This paper explores the development of community-based heritage indicators for peace, drawing on a collaborative project between an academic researcher and international heritage body. The approach discussed adapts the Everyday Peace Indicators (EPI) methodology for a heritage setting, demonstrating the value of innovative cross-sectoral use of tools and ideas to support heritage professionals working in conflict-affected contexts. Through an exa…
Public Perceptions of Violent Extremism and the Prevention of Violent Extremism in Mauritania and Burkina Faso
During the last decade the Sahel has been the region most affected by violent extremism. While research has examined the dynamics and drivers of that violence, little attention has been given to public perceptions either of the violence itself or of responses to the violence and how this can advance understanding of ‘the problem’ and possible response strategies. This article responds to this gap, focusing on the cases of Mauritania and Burkina F…
A ‘youth-ed’ peace? A framework for understanding youth peacebuilding
Young people are profoundly impacted by armed conflicts, yet their contributions to peacebuilding have not been fully conceptualised. Research often frames youth in peacebuilding through a victim-aggressor binary or under the umbrella of everyday peace, without exploring the full scope of their roles. This paper addresses this limitation by repurposing and expanding Gready and Robins’ (2017) typology of civil society, to understand how youth enga…
Contested heritage in Susya
Discussions about the role of heritage sites and practices in provoking conflict – or conversely, as opportunities for building peace – have gained new impetus in recent years. In this context, we discuss a site of contested heritage in the occupied Palestinian territories, the Susya national heritage site. The article first highlights the way this contestation relates to wider conflict over territory (as well as political, economic and cultural …
Making Space for Failure in Geographic Research
The idea that field research is an inherently “messy” process has become widely accepted by geographers in recent years. In this article we push back against this, arguing that failure should be recognized as a central component of what it means to do qualitative geographical field research. This article seeks to use failure proactively and provocatively as a powerful resource to improve research practice and outcomes, reconsidering and giving vo…
Negotiating reconstruction
This paper considers the diverse processes of ‘reconstruction’ that have taken place in Sri Lanka following the devastating tsunami in 2004, and the end of the war in 2009. We argue for a reading of post-crisis reconstruction in Sri Lanka which complicates the ‘liberal’ versus ‘authoritarian’ binary often used to characterise these reconstruction processes, and brings to the fore the complexity of the decisions and tensions around reconstruction …
Towards a spatialised understanding of reconciliation
This paper argues that we should conceive of reconciliation spatially in order to unlock new insights into the process of reconciling divided societies. It seeks to respond to recent calls to put peace at the heart of geographical research, and suggests that one way in which the challenge of developing peace geographies can be meaningfully progressed is by exploring the spatial elements of the notion of reconciliation. The paper identifies four a…
The politics of the post-conflict and post-disaster nexus in Nepal
The intersection of the post-conflict reconstruction processes established in Nepal’s Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) in 2006, and the post-disaster reconstruction effort that swung into action following the country’s devastating earthquakes in 2015 provides an important opportunity to observe to what extent synergies between the two reconstruction processes have been successfully exploited. This paper critically examines these two processes,…

Sacred or Secular? ‘Memorial’, the Russian Orthodox Church, and the Contested Commemoration of Soviet Repressions
In the article we argue that intensive reconstruction of the history of Soviet repressions, and the process of social formation of Gulag memory began in Russia in the late 1980s-mid-1990s. Amongst those re-narrating the past, the 'Memorial' Society and the Russian Orthodox Church were most actively involved in the process of shaping the collective memory of Soviet repressions, trying to establish multi-layered explanatory constructs of the Gulag …
From monuments to mahallas
In recent years, social and cultural geographers have begun to interrogate the relationship between memory, space and identity in the towns and cities of post-Soviet Kyrgyzstan. This article advances this research agenda by comparing top-down, or elite, interventions in the commemorative landscape of a Kyrgyzstani city with those taking place from the bottom-up level and being inscribed at street level. Nowhere are the processes of memorialisatio…
