Beschreibung
When it is so easy to imagine peace, why is it so difficult to implement it? That’s the question Imagine asks: thinking about peace. After covering the biggest conflicts, Gary Knight, a British photographer, had an idea: to publish a book on peace. A daring approach. On the menu: interviews with former warlords, testimonies of those who, after the horror, have taken the gamble of reconstruction, and photos that are simply breathtaking.

Inhaltsverzeichnis
IMAGINE focuses on six distinct countries—Bosnia and Herzegovina, Cambodia, Colombia, Lebanon, Northern Ireland, and Rwanda—to illustrate the difficult work being done to break the foundational cycles of conflict and violence that has marked each’s immediate history. Whether it’s a renowned war journalist reassessing their purpose, an acclaimed photographer reflecting on the images captured by their camera, a former diplomat considering the cycles of history, or a survivor looking forward to a better world ahead, each of the deeply personal narratives in IMAGINE provides a provocative and thoroughly insightful look at not only what the peace process means to each individual and community, but also (and maybe most importantly) the nuanced, hard-won lessons behind what it means to actually build peace, in ways that are authentic, lasting, and account for the generational distrust and resentment that threaten to undermine it. What emerges is an utterly human assessment of where we stand as a global community and a stirring call to action to do and be better—and ultimately break the legacy of violence that has marked so much of our collective history.
