Opis

The year 2018 marks the twentieth anniversary of the signing of the Belfast Agreement that initiated an uneasy peace in Northern Ireland after the forty years of The Troubles. The last twenty years, however, has still not been sufficient time to satisfactorily resolve the issue of how to deal with the events of the conflict and the dissonant heritages that both gave rise to it and were, in turn, fuelled by it. Heritage after Conflict examines the work to which heritage is currently being put within Northern Ireland, whilst also locating it within the wider contexts of post-conflict societies, divided cities and dissonant heritages.
