Book Launch: Queer Conflict Research
We are pleased to announce an exploration of the intersection of queer studies and political violence with our latest volume, Queer Conflict Research, a collaborative effort by an international team of esteemed scholars. This book serves as a foundational guide to queer methodologies in the study of political violence and conflict. Delving into the significance of queer approaches, the contributors shed light on their essence and offer practical insights into applying these methods. From fieldwork and interviews to cultural analysis and archival research, the chapters present diverse methodological approaches while engaging in broader academic discussions on ethical research partnerships. Through compelling case studies from across the globe, the book not only illustrates the practical application of these methodologies but also stands as the premier critical examination of queer methods in the realm of political violence and conflict research. Join us at the book launch and event to delve into this transformative discussion that pushes the boundaries of academic exploration. The launch will start with a panel discussion with the book’s editors: Samuel Ritholtz (University of Oxford), Jamie J Hagen (Queen’s University Belfast), and Andrew Delatolla (University of Leeds and then be followed by a drinks reception.

The book launch can also be viewed on Zoom
