In the 40th episode of the German podcast "Fokus Frieden", Fabricio Rodríguez, member of the network Postcolonial Hierarchies in Peace and Conflict, shares a postcolonial perspective on the question "What is peace?". According to his definition, peace cannot be defined universally, he rather shares his notion of peace in the context of Latin America. The podcast guests – Dr. Malanie Hussak, research assistant at the EH Freiburg and lecturer for the Master in Peace Pedagogy, and Dr. Gregor Walter-Drop, Managing Director of the Peace Academy Rhineland-Palatinate – discuss his definition regarding one's position in society and a critical reflection of the perception of peace in Europe.
The Podcast is a project by the Peace Academy Rhineland-Palatinate and focuses on current topics and connections in peace dynamics. Fabricio Rodríguez was already a guest on the podcast for an episode on coloniality and higher education.
The full episode (in German) can be listened to on Spotify. On the Peace Academy website you can find further information on their projects.
