Orientadora: Prof. Doutora Paula Duarte Lopes Coimbra, 2013 À minha família. And to peacebuilders everywhere. iii iv Acknowledgements In my first session as a PhD student, I was told that completing a doctoral research was a rewarding, but equally long, tortuous, challenging and solitary experience. I certainly agree, although I would now say that ‘solitary’ is, at a minimum, an inaccurate qualification. Of course, writing a monograph is by definition a lonely endeavour. But doing research, I learned, despite including periods of seemingly unending confinement for writing purposes, is an inherently social practice. It is about making sense of the world(s) in which we live by constantly interpreting ours and others’ experiences. It necessarily requires establishing dialogues and lines of communication with audiences in particular (and often distinct) contexts. And it requires documenting our progress to ensure that others can engage with our interpretations. This thesis represents a partial product of my social experience as a PhD student and a testament to the invaluable support I received from a range of institutions and individuals over the last five years.
