Contesting Peace in the Postwar City
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-030-28090-1 (ISBN)
"Contesting Peace in the Postwar City is key reading for urban and peace and conflict scholars. In this impressive and meticulously researched book, Gusic reflects on the ways in which divisions are routinised in the everyday landscape of divided cities and skilfully investigates how change and continuity are governed in postwar urban spaces. The book provides rich empirical material from the cities of Mostar, Mitrovica and Belfast, drawing on nuanced fieldwork insights."
-Stefanie Kappler, Durham University, UK
-Brendan Murtagh, Queen's University Belfast, UK
"Detailed case studies of Belfast, Mitrovica and Mostar show how cities are often engines of what Ivan Gusic calls 'war in peace'. This on-trend study combines the latest research from critical urban studies with peace and conflict studies to produce a very accessible and internationally relevant book. It is highly recommended."
-Roger Mac Ginty, Durham University, UK
Ivan Gusic is Researcher at Lund University, Sweden.
