Peace and the Politics of Memory, Hardback Book

Hardback

  • Information

Description

This important book provides new understandings of how the politics of memory impacts peace in societies transitioning from a violent past.

It does so by developing a theoretical approach focusing on the intersection of sites, agency, narratives, and events in memory-making.

Drawing on rich empirical studies of mnemonic formations in Cyprus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Rwanda, South Africa and Cambodia, the book speaks to a broad audience.

The in-depth, cross-case analysis shows that inclusivity, pluralism, and dignity in memory politics are key to the construction of a just peace.

The book contributes crucial and timely knowledge about societies that grapple with the painful legacies of the past and advances the study of memory and peace. -- .
