The Policy Paper Series (PPS) serves to create and disseminate policy and practice-oriented knowledge created within the network ‚Postcolonial Hierarchies in Peace & Conflict‘. The series addresses a broader audience of political actors including decision-makers and practitioners from international and grassroot organizations as well activist, journalistic, and think-tank networks. The series is particularly interested in showcasing collaborative research between scholars from the Global South and Global North. Policy Papers emphasize issues of positionality and reflexivity pertaining to the power asymmetries in which peace and conflict knowledge itself is embedded.

Susanne Buckley-Zistel and Selbi Durdiyeva are guest editing a Special Issue entitled ‚Decolonizing Theory and Practice of Transitional Justice‘ that will be published by Peacebuilding Journal (Taylor and Francis Online). The Special Issue brings together contributions that through various case studies and theoretical perspectives examine how transitional justice as a field engaged with decolonisation and what would decolonising the practice and theory of transitional justice mean. 

Siddharth Tripathi is editing a Special Issue entitled ‚World Ordering from the Margins‘ with Patricia Rinck, Christine Unrau and Sigrid Quack and is under publication by Global Studies Quarterly (Oxford University Press). The Special Issue brings together contributions which reconsider the analytical toolbox to analyse world order(ing) that emerges from groups, practices and discourses at the margins of the established world polity. This includes a reflection on how colonial, imperial, patriarchal and heteronormative power structures have influenced understandings of the world.
