Recenzje

"This work will be of interest to a wider global audience involved with the topics of divided cities, the politics of space, and peace and conflict studies. ... I recommend the book as an introduction for researching space dynamics of conflict transformation in Mostar or elsewhere, particularly due to the important analysis conducted on the role played by the saf, okc, mrs, or uwc in the spatial conflict transformation of the town." (Igor Stipic, Southeastern Europe, Vol. 43 (3), 2019)

Blurb

This book presents narratives of the social use of space in the divided city of Mostar, Bosnia-Herzegovina. Through the narratives of movement in the city, the work demonstrates how residents engage informally with conflict transformation through new movement and use of spaces. This book will appeal across the social sciences, and in particular to students, academics, and researchers in the fields of peace and conflict studies, political sociology, and human geography.
