At the end of a century of unfathomable suffering, societies are
facing anew the question of how events that shock, resist
assimilation, and evoke contradictory and complex responses should
be remembered. Between Hope and Despair specifically examines the
pedagogical problem of how remembrance is to proceed when what is
to be remembered is underscored by a logic difficult to comprehend
and subversive of the humane character of existence. This
pedagogical attention to practices of remembrance reflects the
growing cognizance that hope for a just and compassionate future
lies in the sustained, if troubled, working through of these
issues.
