Creating (with) community: The value of collaboration in peace Science

Kathleen Gallagher Cunningham

Conflict Management and Peace Science, 2025, vol. 42, issue 1, 3-10

Abstract: This essay examines the roles of collaboration and challenging assumptions as key mechanisms for generating and developing research agendas in Peace Science. Successfully challenging assumptions requires that we identify meaningful differences from reality, show that retaining an assumption is problematic, and that the change has effects on outcomes we care about. Working with collaborators has important effects on our ability to question assumptions as we ask research questions, build theory, and create data.
