The Micro-Sociology of Peace and Conflict

How do micro-interactions of resistance, fighting, and dialogue shape larger patterns of peace and conflict? How can nonviolent resistance, conflict transformation, and diplomacy be analyzed in micro-detail? Exploring these questions, Isabel Bramsen introduces micro-sociology to peace research and International Relations. Breaking new methodological, empirical, and theoretical ground, Bramsen develops a novel theoretical and analytical framework for analyzing micro-dynamics of peace and conflict. The book features chapters on the methods of micro-sociology (including video data analysis) as well as analytical chapters on violence, nonviolence, conflict transformation, peace talks, and international meetings. It is at once broad and specific, analyzing a wide variety of phenomena and cases, while also introducing very specific lenses to analyzing peace and conflict. Presenting a highly practical and micro-detailed approach, The Micro-Sociology of Peace and Conflict will be of use to students, researchers, practitioners, activists, and diplomats interested in understanding and addressing contemporary conflicts. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core.

Isabel Bramsen is Associate Professor and Director of Peace and Conflict Studies at Lund University, Sweden. She is a member of Nordic Women Mediators (NWM), Chair of the board of Peace Research Sweden (PRIS), Chair of the Council for International Conflict Resolution (RIKO), and a mediator at the Centre for Conflict Resolution (CFK).
