THIS IS NOT A 'WAR' STORY. Life in the War Zone A collection of poignant, eye opening stories and articles, written primarily as fictional accounts, yet based on true experiences from major war zones around the globe. Each story and article has been formed from interviews, discussions, reports and dialogues from those affected by conflict. Life in the War Zone brings you the emotional truth about the effects and the long lasting legacy of pain and suffering, to both combat troops and innocent civilian lives, devastated by war and armed conflict. Revealed, the cold hard facts; tales from the front line you probably do not want to consider. Situations you do not want to believe are true. Yet these things have happened, are still happening now. For many, the fight continues long after the last shots of the battle have been fired. Physical trauma, disability and PTSD linger for years, even entire lifetimes, following conflict and struggle. These are the sad facts of modern warfare. "In war, there are no unwounded"

Under what conditions is state use of force successful at containing militancy, and when might it simultaneously, or instead, radicalize members of the civilian population? I present a new theory evaluating social isolation and social connection as mechanisms affecting civilians' political preferences in response to state-sponsored violence. State use of force policies such as checkpoints, curfews, and limits on communication devices are designed to control militancy and increase safety. However, I argue these policies can increase isolation, removing social support networks that enable civilians to cope with the stress, anger, frustration, fear and grief they experience living in a conflict zone. I argue such freedom of movement-restricting policies can fracture communities and lead to increased isolation, aggression and a greater likelihood of civilian preferences for militancy. Using life-story style qualitative interviews conducted in the West Bank and Israel, I find strong evidence that the disintegration of social structure and social relationships predisposes civilians toward militancy as the appropriate means to address their political grievances. I also find strong evidence that social connection (defined in part by freedom of movement) is critical to civilians' resilience in conflict zones and provides the foundation for nonviolent political participation, including civil resistance. The implications of these findings point to possible changes in policies adopted by (i) governments and counterinsurgents seeking to avoid civilian militancy and (ii) civil resistance activists and movement entrepreneurs committed to nonviolence. To extend these findings, I create a typology of different types of state violence and a means of quantifying them which, potentially, could be applied to conflicts cross-nationally. I conclude with a plausibility probe evaluating whether social connection is equally important in affecting civilian political preferences in response to non-state actor violence, specifically terrorism, and the implications of this research agenda.

"Mothers Under Fire: Mothering in Conflict Areas" examines the experiences of women mothering in conflict areas. The aim of this collection is to engage with the nature and meaning of motherhood and mothering during times of war and/or in zones experiencing the threat of war. The essays in the collection reflect diverse disciplinary perspectives through which scholars and field practitioners reveal how conflict shapes mothering practices. One of the unique contributions of the collection is that it highlights not only the particular difficulties mothers face in various geographic locations where conflict has been prevalent, but also the ways in which mothers display agency to challenge and negotiate the circumstances that oppress them. The collection raises awareness of the needs of women and children in areas affected by military and/or political violence worldwide, and provides a basis for developing multiple policy frameworks aimed at improving existing systems of support in local contexts. --Kristen P. Williams, Clark University

By taking students out of their comfort zone, field-based courses—which are increasingly popular in secondary and postsecondary education—have the potential to be deep, transformative learning experiences. But what happens when the field in question is a site of active or recent conflict? In Conflict Zone, Comfort Zone, editors Agnieszka Paczyńska and Susan F. Hirsch highlight new approaches to field-based learning in conflict zones worldwide. As the contributors demonstrate, instructors must leave the comfort zone of traditional pedagogy to meet the challenges of field-based education. Drawing on case studies in the United States and abroad, the contributors address the ethical considerations of learning in conflict zones, evaluate the effectiveness of various approaches to teaching these courses, and provide guidelines for effecting change. They also explore how the challenges of field-based classes are magnified in conflict and postconflict settings, and outline the dilemmas faced by those seeking to resolve those challenges. Finally, filling a crucial gap in existing literature, the contributors identify best practices that will assist aspiring instructors in developing successful field-based courses in conflict zones.
