Spaces of Conflict in Everyday Life

Perspectives across Asia. Edited by Martin Sökefeld. How do people in the most conflict-ridden areas of Asia deal with the omnipresence of crisis in their daily lives? Conflicts are everyday situations and experiences with which people have to cope. Focusing on particularly conflict-prone parts of Asia, the contributions to this book analyze the dynamics of conflicts from the perspectives of the actors involved, and pay particular attention to aspects like mobilization, exclusion, segregation, the role of institutions and the construction of antagonistic identities. The book gathers case studies based on long-term fieldwork from conflicts in Kyrgyzstan, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Kashmir. 225 Seiten, broschiert (Kultur und soziale Praxis/Culture and Social Practice/transcript Verlag 2015)
