In order to understand, explain and critically examine the transformations of political violence, TraCe focuses on different disciplinary perspectives, levels of analysis, methods and forms of violence in three thematic research areas as well as a synergy area. Each of the research areas is, in turn, subdivided into more concrete, often cross-locational, work packages. These are coordinated by varying partner institutions. In the work packages, Principal Investigators and Research Associates work on various research projects.
Research Areas
1 | Forms: Change and Continuity of Political Violence
2 | Institutions: Prevention and Legitimization of Political Violence
