Localising Responses to Conflict and Crisis in Arab–Muslim Contexts

Abstract

The theme of this special issue, local responses to conflict in Muslim contexts, is not new. Yet the meaning of the local and localisation evolves dynamically in a fast-changing world in which trends in conflict and crisis are always shifting, and therefore the topic requires revisiting. Originality in peacebuilding, development and relief emerges from scholars and practitioners engaging in contextualisation and experimentation on the theme.
