Part I

Part I of this book lays the ground for the main arguments presented in Parts II and III. I start Part I with the critical review of the mainstream conflict resolution theories, which as I argue serve to reproduce rather than solve conflicts, followed by discussion of their conceptual alternatives. These alternatives point toward participatory research methods positioned at the intersection of research, theory, and practice and are discussed in Chapter 2. I end Part I with a short auto-ethnographic sketch intended to explain why and how I came to this work, and what are the values and personal and methodological bias that guide my writing.
