  1. 1. Spatial Stories of Peace. The case of the Greater Gola Landscape.

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Graduate School

    Författare :Nicholas Eklund; [2024]
    Nyckelord :spatial theory; Liberia; Sierra Leone; environmental peacebuilding; conservation; case study; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis follows the interdisciplinary tradition that exists in global studies by performing a spatial analysis of the imaginary of peace(s) and conservation as a practice of peace(s) and thus contributing to the fields of environmental peacebuilding, peace- and conflict studies, and geography.
