Title: Conflict and identity in a Timorese urban migrant village
Author(s): Scambary, James
Abstract: This presentation examines the social dynamics of an urban migrant village in Dili, the capital of East Timor, and the groups within this village. This presentation makes the argument that to design more sustainable policing and peacebuilding strategies, more account should be taken of the complexity of modern, urban settlements and of the societies that live within them.
