As Oliver Richmond explains, there is a level to peacemaking that
operates in the realm of dialogue, declarations, symbols and
rituals. But after all this pomp and circumstance is where the
reality of security, development, politics, economics, identity,
and culture figure in; conflict, cooperation, and reconciliation
are at their most vivid at the local scale. Thus local peace
operations are crucial to maintaining order on the ground even in
the most violent contexts. However, as Richmond argues, such local
capacity to build peace from the inside is generally left
unrecognized, and it has been largely ignored in the policy and
scholarly literature on peacebuilding. In Peace and Political
Order, Richmond looks at peace processes as they scale up from
local to transnational efforts to consider how to build a lasting
and productive peace. He takes a comparative and expansive look at
peace efforts in conflict situations in countries around the world
to consider what local voices might suggest about the inadequacy of
peace processes engineered at the international level. As well, he
explores how local workers act to modify or resist peace processes
headed by international NGOs, and to what degree local actors have
enjoyed success in the peace process (and how they have affected
the international peace process).

Jodie Whittaker stars in this London-set psychological thriller.
Mia (Whittaker) is an emotionally fragile young nurse struggling to
come to terms with her mother's recent death. When an old woman in
her building commits suicide in front of her, Mia becomes intensely
curious about her. Admitted into the old woman's flat by the
mysterious caretaker, Max (David Warner), Mia is shocked to
discover that it is filled with mementoes and belongings from Mia's
own past, including pictures of her abusive former lover Ludwig
(Dougray Scott). So begins a journey into her past in which Mia
finally learns to accept her own mistakes and faults, including her
strong affection for the partner who hurt her, even as she tries to
avoid the tragic ending that fate appears to have in store for her.
Emilia Fox co-stars.
