By taking first-person accounts of those involved in both violent and nonviolent action against the state, then analyzing that data via cognitive mapping, Stephanie Dornschneider has opened up new perspectives of what drives people to--or away from--the use of political violence. Stephanie Dornschneider teaches in the Department of Economics and International Studies at the University of Buckingham. |
