Bringing together a team of international scholars, this volume provides a foundational guide to queer methodologies in the study of political violence and conflict.
Contributors provide illuminating discussions on why queer approaches are important, what they entail and how to utilise a queer approach to political violence and conflict. The chapters explore a variety of methodological approaches, including fieldwork, interviews, cultural analysis and archival research. They also engage with broader academic debates, such as how to work with research partners in an ethical manner.
Including valuable case studies from around the world, the book demonstrates how these methods can be used in practice. It is the first critical, in-depth discussion on queer methods and methodologies for research on political violence and conflict.
Recenzijas
"Queer conflict research is a ground-breaking edited volume that offers a critical and multilayered insight into how we might think about conflict in an inclusive (and queer) manner. It makes an essential and field-defining contribution." International Affairs Queer Conflict Research embraces multiplicities in what it means to 'queer' studies of war and peace. Across overlapping identities and methodologies, contributors to this volume engage creative and deeply humane ways to approach queer research. This book will provide lasting inspiration to both beginning and more experienced researchers looking to push across disciplinary boundaries toward more compassionate research grounded in the experiences of queer subjects whose lives have been touched by conflict.
