Opis

Taking Northern Ireland as its primary case study, this book applies the growing literature in memory studies to the primary question of transitional justice: How shall societies and individuals reckon with a traumatic past? This book analyses how the bodies of the dead, injured, and traumatised are written into - or out of - transitional justice.
