In marked contrast to literary, historical and cultural studies,
there has been a limited engagement with the concepts and politics
of trauma by political science and peacebuilding research. This
book explores the debate on trauma and peacebuilding and presents
the challenges for democratization that the politics of trauma
present in transitional periods. It demonstrates how ideas about
reconciliation are filtered through ideological lenses and become
new ways of articulating communal and ethno-nationalist sentiments.
Drawing on the work of Jacques Ranciere and Iris Marion Young and
with specific reference to the Northern Irish transition, it argues
for a shift in focus from the representation of trauma towards its
reception and calls for a more substantive approach to the study of
democracy and post-conflict peacebuilding. This text will be of
interest to scholars and students of peace and conflict studies,
ethnic and nationalism studies, transitional justice studies,
gender studies, Irish politics, nationalism and ethnicity.
