Rethinking the concepts of "witnessing" and "witness" is highly
relevant to the study of war crimes, mass murder and genocide.
Through multiple readings, the volume shows the meanings and
functions of witnessing in a political and historical context
marked by the emergence of multiculturalism. The ultimate goal is
the exploration of divergent and intersectional positions of the
witness and witnessing as both concrete and hermeneutical
categories. As a result, the mechanisms of social, political, and
psychological oppression, murder and genocide will become tangible
and understandable with greater precision and finesse.
