The twentieth century witnessed genocides, ethnic cleansing, forced
population expulsions, shifting borders, and other disruptions on
an unprecedented scale. This book examines the work of memory and
the ethics of healing in post authoritarian societies that have
experienced state-perpetrated violence. Focusing on global
memorialization practices and local specificities, the contributors
explore trans-generational encounters, performances, rituals, and
diverse forms of remembrance and reconciliation in the aftermath of
violent historical events: WWII, the Holocaust and the fall of the
Berlin Wall, Stalinism in post-Soviet Russia and Eastern Europe,
collaboration in Vichy France, the Civil War in Spain, and
apartheid in South Africa.
