This comprehensive interdisciplinary work delves into diverse contexts where security concerns significantly influence institutional or everyday practices and routines in the lives of ordinary individuals. By fostering a dialogue between the fields of International Relations, Peace and Conflict Studies, Sociolinguistics, Education, and Anthropology, this book explores fundamental themes related to conflict and security, including peacebuilding, refugee settlement, nationalism, surveillance, and sousveillance. Seven empirical studies are presented, employing ethnographic and/or close-up interactional lenses, to examine security practices in schools, refugee centers, care homes, city streets, and roadsides. Drawing on fieldwork and data from Cyprus, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Sweden, Germany, and the United States, the chapters explore the meanings of suspicion, peace, conflict, and threat as experienced by people in their daily lives.
This book holds immense appeal to students specializing in Critical Security Studies, Anthropology, Sociology, Sociolinguistics, and International Relations, in general. Its comprehensive approach and rich empirical insights offer valuable perspectives on the complex interplay between security, society, and individual experiences.
