Abstract
‘Learnings regarding the role of “place” in conflict and the communication of conflict’ draws together overarching themes, learnings and implications from the experiences relayed by the authors in the preceding chapters. These chapters demonstrate that place constitutes a central nexus with conflict and its associated communication. Creating a more harmonious world requires attention to place. The learnings provide understanding that the processes of conflict management and resolution can benefit by consideration of the nexus among place, conflict and communication. Often ignored as a ‘silent’ participant, place plays a central role in conflict and the communication of conflict. A multidisciplinary approach, drawing on scholarship from diverse areas, provides fresh insights. Collins concludes that this is an area ripe for further exploration and research.
