This volume maps cultural representations of Mass Violence from the
perpetrators' perspective. It analyzes spaces where political
crimes have been committed and how these places have undergone
successive resemanticization in collective memories. The chapters
comparatively examine scenes of Mass Violence carried out in very
diverse regions of the globe, from the Third Reich to the
Argentinian Dictatorship, from the Gulag to Francoist Spain, from
the Cambodian genocide to terrorism. They explore, from a
"cultural" point of view, how the events have been represented,
i.e. visualized and narrated, and how the crime scenes have been
reappropriated for the sake of memory, mourning, and prevention, in
accordance with political, social, and ideological frameworks.
