This interdisciplinary book constitutes the first major and comparative study of
resilience focused on victims-/survivors of conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV).
Locating resilience in the relationships and interactions between individuals
and their social ecologies (including family, community, non-governmental
organisations and the natural environment), the book develops its own conceptual
framework based on the idea of connectivity. It applies the framework to its analysis
of rich empirical data from Bosnia-Herzegovina, Colombia and Uganda, and it
tells a set of stories about resilience through the contextual, dynamic and storied
connectivities between individuals and their social ecologies. Ultimately, it utilises
the three elements of the framework – namely, broken and ruptured connectivities,
supportive and sustaining connectivities and new connectivities – to argue the case
for developing the field of transitional justice in new social-ecological directions,
and to explore what this might conceptually and practically entail. The book will particularly appeal to anyone with an interest in, or curiosity
about, resilience, and to scholars, researchers and policymakers working on
CRSV and/or transitional justice. The fact that resilience has received surprisingly
little attention within existing literature on either CRSV or transitional justice
accentuates the significance of this research and the originality of its conceptual
and empirical contributions.
