This book grapples with the potential impacts of collective trauma
in war-rape survivors' families. Drawing on inter-ethnic and
inter-generational participatory action research on reconciliation
processes in post-conflict Bosnia-Herzegovina, the author examines
the risk that female survivors of war-related sexual crimes,
now-mothers, will breed hatred and further division in the
post-conflict context. Showing how the historical trauma of sexual
abuse among survivors affects the ideas, perceptions, behavioural
patterns and understandings of the ethnic and religious 'Other' or
perpetrator, the book also considers the influence of such trauma
on other attitudes rarely addressed in peacebuilding programmes,
such as notions of naturalised gender-based violence, cultural
scripts of sexuality and support for dangerous or violent aspects
of the patriarchal social order. It thus seeks to sketch proposals
for a curriculum of peacebuilding that takes account of the legacy
of war rape in survivors' families and the impact of trauma
transmission. As such, Trauma Transmission and Sexual Violence will
appeal to scholars of politics, sociology and gender studies with
interests in peace and reconciliation processes and war-related
sexual violence.
