ADI Lunchtime Seminar: When we remember: peacebuilding and transgenerational resilience in the Southern Philippines
Please join us on Wednesday 15 May for our next ADI Lunchtime Seminar: When we remember: peacebuilding and transgenerational resilience in the Southern Philippines.
Abstract
How can we restore something when there is nothing? How can a political order endure if protracted shocks continually deplete their resources? The resilience turn in global politics, particularly in peace and conflict studies and development studies was ground-breaking in how the epistemic community conceptualised political orders. It paved the way for an epistemic shift from looking at state fragility into community resilience. Building on existing contribution, this paper explores community resilience as an epistemic move rather than previous labelling states as fragile. It takes a conceptual departure from a point where depletion is less explored in the scholarship’s inquiry into community resilience.
