African Conflict & Peacebuilding Review (ACPR)

African Conflict & Peacebuilding Review (ACPR) is a interdisciplinary forum for creative and rigorous studies of conflict and peace in Africa and for discussions between scholars, practitioners, and public intellectuals in Africa, the United States, and other parts of the world. It includes a wide range of theoretical, methodological, and empirical perspectives on the causes of conflicts and peace processes including, among others, cultural practices relating to conflict resolution and peacebuilding, legal and political conflict preventative measures, and the intersection of international, regional, and local interests and conceptions of conflict and peace.

The journal takes a holistic view of peace and conflict and focuses not only on large-scale international conflict and armed conflict but also on peace and conflict dynamics at other levels—e.g., interpersonal, intra-group, and inter-group—and dispute settlement through customary law and cultural practices. Its scope encompasses the entire African con

tinent, and it incorporates works on all of its areas.

In addition to research articles, editorials, comments, and interviews that resonate with scholars, policy makers, and practitioners, ACPR includes podcasts, photos, and essays that are suitable for teaching and public discourse and is intended to make high quality scholarship engaging and easy to use in the classroom.

Published by Indiana University Press, in partnership with the Africa Peace and Conflict Network (APCN), and the West African Research Association (WARA) , African Conflict & Peacebuilding Review launches in early 2011. Its editors include Abu Bakarr Bah (Northern Illinois University), Mark Davidheiser (Nova Southeastern University), Tricia Redeker Hepner (University of Tennessee), and Niklas Hultin (American University).
