Peace and International Politics Research Group

The Peace and International Politics (PIP) research group convenes approximately once a month. The disciplinary home of the research group is the intersection of International Relations and Peace Research broadly conceived, and we discuss and read theoretical as well as empirical work.

Members of the PIP research group take part in research projects on a broad range of issues related to ontological security, diplomacy, political theory, conflict analysis, ethics, war, peacebuilding, security, reconciliation, identity, conflict resolution, gender and peace negotiations.

The researchers focus both on global patterns as well as regions and countries, such as the Balkans, Asia, the European Union, South America, the Middle East and Europe.

If you want to be on the mailing list of the PIP-group, please contact Lisa Strömbom or Isabel Bramsen.
