      abstract = {As the world negotiates immense loss and questions of how  to memorialize, the contributions in this volume evaluate  the role of culture as a means to promote reconciliation,  either between formerly warring parties, perpetrators and  survivors, governments and communities, or within the self.  Post-Conflict Memorialization: Missing Memorials, Absent  Bodies reflects on a distinct aspect of mourning work: the  possibility to move towards recovery, while in a period of  grief, waiting, silence, or erasure. Drawing on  ethnographic data and archival material from  Bosnia-Herzegovina, Argentina, Palestine, Israel, Wales,  Peru, Colombia, Hungary, Chile, Pakistan, and India, the  authors analyze how memorialization and commemoration is  practiced by communities who have experienced trauma and  violence, while in the absence of memorials, mutual  acknowledgement, and the bodies of the missing. This timely  volume will appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate  students, postdoctoral researchers, and scholars with an  interest in memory studies, sociology, history, politics,  conflict, and peace studies Olivette Otele is Professor of  Colonial History and Memory of Slavery at the University of  Bristol, in the United Kingdom, and a Fellow and Vice  President of the Royal Historical Society.
