This book examines the nature of everyday peace mobilised in post-conflict settings. It specifically aims to examine the reconstruction of relationships between local communities and former Khmer Rouge leaders in Cambodia, using social reconciliation as an indicator of peace. Based on the empirical examination, this study will reveal key features of everyday peace like plurality, connectivity and subtlety, and local communities' agency for peacebuilding. Research questions that will be examined include what does everyday peace look like? What forms of everyday practice have community members developed and utilised? How is the local process for relationship building related to the wider peacebuilding and governance contexts in the country? And how have community members handled and destabilised the mainstream narratives related to the Khmer Rouge in the process? The volume will present new conceptual and theoretical innovations relevant to the central debates on everyday peace, with an empirical examination of Cambodia.

Der Mekong ist mit seinen etwa 4.500 Kilometern der zehntlängste Fluss der Erde. Er gilt als Lebensader Südostasiens und fließt durch China, Myanmar, Laos, Thailand, Kambodscha und Vietnam.Mit Fahrrad, Bus und Boot begleitet Volker Häring den Mekong vom tibetischen Hochland bis in die kambodschanische Tiefebene und erzählt dabei vom Leben entlang des drittgrößten Stroms Asiens. Er trinkt Wein mit in die Jahre gekommenen chinesischen Ministranten, lernt in Laos die Langsamkeit kennen und entdeckt die unbekannten Mekongufer Kambodschas.Eine Reise entlang des Mekongs ist immer auch eine Reise in Umwegen. Die sind mal rührend, mal traurig, meistens aber heiter - und führen immer zum Ziel: Dem Mythos Mekong näher zu kommen. Ohne falschen Pathos und immer mit einem Schuss Ironie.

Den 17. april 1975 gik de røde khmerer ind i Phnom Penh i Cambodja. Det blev indledningen til den mest venstreradikale revolution i det 20. århundrede. Med forfatteren rejser vi nu i det ødelagte land ad floder, veje og stier for at kortlægge revolutionens mystik og teologi. Hvilken utopi førte landet ud i mørke og barbari? Har ondskaben en natur? Det er nogle af de spørgsmål, som forfatteren stiller sig selv og diskuterer med de cambodjanere han møder. På andre rejser i "Timernes Bro" følger vi forfatteren til Thailand. Her opholdt han sig i tiden op til tsunamien på jagt efter beretninger om politiske skandaler og turismens egen ideologi, som vi alle sammen tilbeder. Det er som historier om altings endeligt; al vor forfængelighed og alle menneskelige forbrydelser skylles bort, når naturkatastrofen indtræder uden varsel. Disse thailandske rejseberetninger stiller dermed også spørgsmålet om, hvad vi bruger verden til, mens vi er her i live. I den sidste del af bogen inddrager forfatteren os i nogle diskussioner med intellektuelle i Kuala Lumpur i Malaysia, hvor han indgående undersøger aspekter ved den multikulturalisme, som landet har gjort til en del af sin forfatning. For hvordan man sig rationelt til kulturernes møde i den globaliserede virkelighed?
