Armed non-state actors and the politics of recognition
This edited volume examines asymmetric conflict dynamics through the politics of recognition vis--vis armed non-state actors. It explores a diverse range of case studies and considers the risks and opportunities that (non-)recognition may involve for transforming armed conflicts.
Contemporary violent conflicts often involve armed non-state actors (ANSAs).
Governments and international organisations are usually hesitant to enter negotiations with ANSAs . This volume analyses which impacts practices of social recognition have on conflict dynamics in the short and long term. By studying key asymmetric conflicts through the prism of recognition, it offers an innovative perspective on the interactions between ANSAs and state actors. The volume explores: In which contexts does granting recognition to armed non-state actors foster conflict transformation? What happens when governments withhold recognition or label ANSAs in ways they perceive as misrecognition? The authors examine the ambivalence of recognition processes in violent conflicts and their sometimes unintended consequences for ANSAs and local, national , and transnational communities. The volume draws on a wide range of case studies by experts, original field research, and innovative theoretical work.
