In doing so, the work offers an up-to-date, accessible and authoritative overview of how to identify, analyse, and counteract energy images – which will be key to fostering social environments of reconciliation and peacebuilding for the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of much interest to students and scholars of peace and conflict studies, International Relations, history, political sociology, and communication studies. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53528608571766,"sku":"9781032246352","price":48.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/stand_30697904.jpg?v=1760345345","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781032246352-enemy-images","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
