“…Whether their empirical focus is on military (Daho 2019, Duclos & Jouhanneau 2019; Moore 2019) or on civilian international organizations (Buchet de Neuilly 2019; Goetze 2019), the articles assembled in this issue show that peacebuilders' encounters on the intervention ground shape their practices and even the scope of their mission (Moore 2019;Duclos & Jouhanneau 2019) as well as their own position in the peacebuilding field (Daho 2019). Moreover, peacebuilders' relation to the ground also determines their role in decision-making processes (Buchet de Neuilly 2019) and their careers (Goetze 2019). Finally, paying close attention to what the ground of intervention does to peacebuilders can, we argue, yield insights into the very structure of peacebuilding as a socio-professional field.…”

This special issue, instead of questioning what effect peacebuilding interventions have on post-conflict societies, analyses what the ground of intervention does to peacebuilders. It demonstrates that everyday interactions on the ground shape the interveners and even the scope of their missions. We delineate how a political sociology approach might break away from binaries ('internationals/locals') and, instead, illuminate processes (of internationalization and localization). We intend to offer a political sociology of the 'intervention encounter', that is, to scrutinize the everyday interactions among peacebuilders and between peacebuilders and domestic actors, and to investigate effects of the ground on peacebuilding organizations, doctrines and decision-making processes, as well as on peacebuilders' trajectories, positions, professional practices and representations. In fine, we explore how peacebuilders' relations to the ground structure the socio-professional field of peacebuilding.

“…Largely, then, resilience becomes a set of attributes prescribed by international agencies to be acquired or not (and at their peril if not) by those vulnerable to shock. While positioned initially as an escape from a set of terms which suggests deficit in 'local' populations and societies-such as fragility and vulnerability-when texts position resilience as 'lacking' it becomes a buzzword for business as usual approaches to peacebuilding which defer responsibility and blame to localized sources (Goetze, 2019).…”
