the professional interests of a neoliberal academy, and under the dead-handed control that institutional gatekeepers have over the scope of increasingly moribund debates. Thus, it might be germane to conclude that the reshaping of post-Cold war international order has been as fraught as the previous century’s restructuring, but the modern version somehow lacks the substantial and engaged ideas that might improve international order for the future as well as be able to produce books like this one. There are clearly institutional, political and economic reasons for the current, enormous deficit today which resonate across International Relations Then and Now. This book remains impressive and a very useful introduction to IR, and I found that it generated a similar enthusiasm on a second reading, thirty years later. The updates are subtle and it has not dated, including more on the critical and post-colonial contributions in particular as well as an acknowledge that IR’s journey has been far from linear and unproblematic. Underlying this gem of a book is an important insight for IR scholarship: ‘then’ cannot be the same as ‘now’, given the massive advances of critical scholarship on IR. The challenge is currently similar in scale to the era when Groom and his colleagues first wrote this book (which I presume was the late 1980s): change in international order is unpredictable, often unexpected, and may provoke war, while peace requires historical and theoretical preparation, and understanding, if it is to overcome the dogged opposition of evolving systems of power and interest.

ABSTRACT Much attention has been paid to how digital technologies affect peacebuilding through the production of information, data and evidence. While research has thus documented how digital technologies enable a sincere peacebuilding approach concerned with the hurtful past and present and how the world ‘really’ is, digital technologies can also play a role in enabling a subjunctive sensitivity for future worlds that ‘could’ or ‘should’ be. The article explores how in peacebuilding, subjunctivity is produced through performative uses of digital technology that are primarily non-discursive and non-cognitive. Documenting examples from practitioners engaged inter alia in mediation, dialogues, peacekeeping, and ceasefire monitoring, the article introduces a compilation of subjunctive affordances and demonstrates their powerful effects: shepherding conflict stakeholders along the process, detaching them from hurtful content, reframing their perspectives on the world and envisioning possible futures, as well as unlocking existing social structures and evoking new ones through digital communitas.

ABSTRACT This article offers a new conceptual and theoretical model for researching music-based peacebuilding, an emerging interdisciplinary field that is characterised by heterogeneity of practices, concepts, and analytical approaches. Drawing upon findings from a scoping study of 62 peer-reviewed English language publications that describe music-based peacebuilding practices, it presents a typology of six varieties of peace that this work can foster. Each peace is constituted by a combination of four key variables in approaches to practice and implementation: intergroup encounter; intentional engagement with the extant conflict or politics that drive the need for peace-promoting work; sociality and opportunities for independent social interactions and affective ties; and the projection of the peace message to an external audience. The typology brings needed coherence to this diverse field, providing a nuanced framework for articulating the peacebuilding potential of music and for engaging critically with the possibilities, limitations, and complexities of creative contributions to peacebuilding.

ABSTRACT In this article, we explore the potential contributions of visual images to international peace mediation. Inspired by the concept of active listening and narrative approaches to mediation, we advance the notion of active looking in peace mediation: a visual-discursive mediation practice that includes images as a mode of expression and contribution to meaning-making processes, capitalising on specific characteristics of images, especially as regards their relationship to verbal language, which we explore in terms of ineffability, approximation, elusiveness, and commonalities. We propose active looking as both an approach to conflict mediation and a mediation skill derived from an understanding of conflict transformation that – instead of aiming at problem-solving based on sameness – appreciates openness, difference, and ambiguity. Ideally, through image-generated evolution, re-complexification, and re-authoring of narratives, the conflict parties, by means of active looking skills embodied in and promoted by the mediator, move closer to a conflict’s transformation.
