'Conflict, Peace and Security in Kenya: Multidisciplinary Perspectives is a timely and important contribution to the growing scholarship on conflict, peace and security in Africa. At a time when peace and security challenges are increasingly complex and interconnected, this volume makes a compelling case for moving beyond narrow disciplinary binaries and state-centric approaches to understanding the complex realities confronting Kenyan communities. While it is based in the Kenyan context, the insights therein are applicable to other African contexts. Importantly, the book ably blends rigorous theoretical inquiry with empirical evidence and everyday realities of communities. It speaks not only to scholars and students, but also to policymakers, practitioners and civil society actors seeking theoretically grounded and evidence-based approaches to peacebuilding and conflict transformation. It is an intellectually engaging volume that will make a significant contribution to African studies from an Afrocentric perspective, as well as the wider scholarship on peace and security, especially to those keen on African daily realities.'- Dr. Peter Kipng’eno Kirui, Lecturer of Conflict and Governance and Head of Humanities Department at University of Eldoret, Kenya
