Revealing everyday resistance during the war in Bosnia: how did ordinary people's actions disrupt conflict and promote peace?

1992年至1995年波斯尼亚和黑塞哥维那战争的特点是动员普通民众对其他族裔的人民采取敌对和暴力行动。然而，许多普通人抵制，证词显示他们的抵抗是如何与他们的日常生活和个人的战争经历相结合的。揭露日常的抵抗有可能在种族仍然存在政治分歧的社会中塑造积极的集体记忆。地方机构在和平建设中的重要性已经得到承认，在南斯拉夫战争中有组织的抵抗的少数例子也得到了一些关注，日常领域仍然部分模糊。我的研究将使用目击者的证词来揭示它，包括联合国在1994- 1995年拍摄的当代电视画面。我在罗杰·麦金蒂（Roger Mac Ginty）最近的工作基础上，对分裂社会中普通人的日常行为和经历进行了结构化分析，以了解这如何促进和平或破坏冲突。我将通过寻求进一步发展一个分析框架来扩展这个研究议程，并使用目击者的证词和原始的历史人种学研究来应用它。我的研究不仅旨在增进对波斯尼亚过去的了解，而且还为塑造其未来提供宝贵的资本。它将扩大一项研究议程，将种族或国内冲突中战时抵抗的经验与未来的建设和平努力联系起来。

The war in Bosnia and Herzegovina between 1992 and 1995 was characterized by the mobilization of ordinary people to antagonism and violence towards people of other ethnicities. However, many ordinary people resisted testimonies show how their resistance was entwined with their everyday lives and personal experience of war. Exposing everyday resistance has the potential to shape collective memory positively in societies in which ethnicity remains politically divisive. The importance of local agency in peace-building has been recognised and there has been some attention to the few instances of organised resistance in the Yugoslav war, the everyday realm remains partially obscured. My research will reveal it using eyewitness testimony, including contemporary television footage filmed by the UN in 1994-5. I build on recent work by Roger Mac Ginty to bring a structured analysis to the everyday actions and experience of ordinary people in divided societies to understand how this might promote peace or disrupt conflict. I will extend this research agenda by seeking to further develop an analytical framework and apply it using eyewitness testimonies and original historical ethnographic research. My research aims not only to enhance understanding of Bosnia's past but also to provide valuable capital in shaping its future. It would extend a research agenda connecting experience of war-time resistance in ethnic or civil conflict with future peace-building efforts.
