Abstract

ABSTRACT This article investigates the relationship between spatial reconfigurations and peace by examining the practice I call syncretic place-making, identified in cities experiencing conflict. I suggest that this spatial practice reflects the promise of Hannah Arendt’s political vision of a world in common, materialized in the city. I discuss architectural conceptualizations such as the Cypriot 2021 Venice Biennial entry and theorize from architectural practices of resistance identified in Sarajevo, defining syncretic place-making as a process of drawing from multiple traditions to celebrate coexistence in space. The article reflects on both the potential and challenges that such place-making has for conflict cities.

城市作为一个共同的世界:作为和平的空间途径的综合场所建设

本文通过研究在经历冲突的城市中被我称为“融合场所制造”的实践来研究空间重构与和平之间的关系。我认为，这种空间实践反映了汉娜·阿伦特对共同世界的政治愿景的承诺，并在城市中具体化。我讨论了建筑概念，如塞浦路斯2021年威尼斯双年展的参赛作品，并从萨拉热窝确定的抵抗建筑实践中提出理论，将融合的场所制作定义为从多种传统中汲取灵感的过程，以庆祝空间中的共存。这篇文章反映了这种场所建设对冲突城市的潜力和挑战。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Intervention and Statebuilding is a cross-disciplinary journal devoted to critical analysis of international intervention, focussing on interactions and practices that shape, influence and transform states and societies. In 21st century political practice, states and other actors increasingly strive to transplant what they see as normatively progressive political orders to other contexts. Accordingly, JISB focuses on the complex interconnections and mutually shaping interactions between donor and recipient communities within military, economic, social, or other interventional contexts, and welcomes perspectives on political life of, and beyond, European state-building processes. The journal brings together academics and practitioners from cross-disciplinary backgrounds, including international relations, political science, political economy, sociology, international law, social anthropology, geography, and regional studies. The editors are particularly interested in specific or comparative in-depth analyses of contemporary or historical interventions and state-building processes that are grounded in careful fieldwork and/or innovative methodologies. Multi or cross-disciplinary contributions and theoretically challenging pieces that broaden the study of intervention and state building to encompass processes of decision-making, or the complex interplay between actors on the ground, are especially encouraged.
