Ebook: The Role of Memory in Ethnic Conflict

What insights can we gain from the social sciences about the role memory plays in creating or recreating the many conflicts threatening global peace in the 21st century? Indeed, can knowledge about the relationship between memory and conflict help resolve inter-group conflicts and heal individual hurts? This book presents a series of essays both theoretical and empirical that approach these questions from a variety of disciplines that will highlight a much-neglected aspect of one of the major problems facing the world today.
