During an armed conflict or period of gross human rights
violations, the first priority is a cessation of violence. For the
cease-fire to be more than a lull in hostilities and atrocities,
however, it must be accompanied by a plan for political transition
and social reconstruction. Essential to this long-term
reconciliation process is education reform that teaches future
generations information repressed under dictatorial regimes and
offers new representations of former enemies. In Teaching the
Violent Past, Cole has gathered nine case studies exploring the use
of history education to promote tolerance, inclusiveness, and
critical thinking in nations around the world. Online Book
