- This book is based on 10 years of research (2008 to 2018) including extensive multi-sited fieldwork. Dr Idler carried out fieldwork in the violence-affected remote, and hard to access borderlands of Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela as well as the capital cities Bogotá, Caracas, and Quito under extremely challenging circumstances, including a year of fieldwork between 2011 and 2013 and numerous follow-up trips. Data collection was based on participant observation (Dr Idler was embedded in local communities), focus groups, and semi-structured interviews with local stakeholders, such as ex-combatants, military and police officials, refugees, indigenous, human rights defenders, and representatives of NGOs.
