“…To be sure, traditional Westphalian territoriality is not dead, despite globalisation. The return of geopolitics suggests, rather, a reterritorialisation, for instance of subnational regional integration across borders in the eU (Noferini et al 2020) and in relation to refugees (Kataria 2021). Importantly, armed conflicts still often revolve around territorial issues, and this can involve ideational and identity issues as well as material aspects.…”

In this article, we revisit the 'local turn' debate in the peacebuilding literature, and explore its most recent and promising approach to 'the local' , focussing on post-war cities and on urban dimensions of peacebuilding. There is still substantive contestation and frustration in the peacebuilding research field with regards to the conceptual fuzziness of 'the local' , and with the continual failures of international interventions to actually take into account local perspectives, promote local agency and establish local ownership. In this article, we explore to what extent recent urban approaches to peacebuilding can help alleviate some of the conceptual problems that has persisted in the literature. We reflect on and raise questions about what a focus on cities and urban perspectives is contributing to the study of local peacebuilding more specifically. We suggest three facets of analytical added value: (1) an increased understanding of how the particularities of urban and rural space affects peacebuilding locally and potentially beyond; (2) how cities and urban space are interrelated with traditional territoriality; and(3) the methodological benefits of the city/urban as (local) analytical entry point. We also discuss potential pitfalls and limitations of urban approaches to peacebuilding, and identify prospective pathways for further research.

“…1996). Kataria (2019) investigates' reterritorialization of persecuted identity' as an interpretation of religious exclusion, attempting to re-establish a geographical linkage since their emergence in their host culture, a procedure that appears to stimulate ethnic-religious conflict with marginalized groups (Kataria, Shyamal. 2019).…”

Pakistan is a country founded on Islamic identity, and it was established to safeguard Muslims' religious, cultural, and historical identities.Individuals and families can find spiritual, social, psychological, and often material support through religion. Pakistan's interest in building a righteous,organized, systematic, peaceable, and prosperous nation has indeed been paramount since time immemorial. Pakistan, since its inception inherited ethnically, sociologically, territorially, financially, and linguistically diverse social structure and population. Religion served as the foundation for the configuration of this nation. Specific structures of societal, economic and social deprivation altered this governmental ideology. Even though the country remains dominantly Muslim, demographically, it is relatively fragmented and disintegrated. This paper investigates the components of diversification that ultimately stymied Pakistan's nation-building process and will examine the process of Islamization, particularly during the Zia era, which assisted Pakistan in establishing a unified society based on Islamic principles of progressive political equality, and economic justice.
