Diana Pardo Pedraza, an assistant professor of anthropology and international affairs, will join the 2023-2024 class of Harvard Radcliffe Fellows. During her fellowship, Pardo Pedraza is completing a book manuscript, provisionally titled “Landscapes of Suspicion: Minefields, Peace Laboratories, and the Ecologies of (Post)War in Colombia.”
The book delves into territories occupied by the threat of improvised landmines during the decades-long political violence. Pardo Pedraza’s work will explore the possibilities and challenges of ecological and political reconciliation by calling attention to war-inherited suspicion and how postwar interventions reshape it.
The Harvard Radcliffe Fellowship selects individuals at different stages in their career from across the world to partake in the program. Fellows have the opportunity to work on an individual project while mining and deepening the knowledge of the Harvard University community.
