Engaging Violence: Trauma, Memory And Representation (Cultural Dynamics Of Social Representation)

This volume covers new ground in the field as it explores the responses of researchers, educators, students and practitioners to long-term engagement with emotionally demanding material in the realm of mass political violence. The book considers how emotional or empathic knowledge can be used to make work, study, and engagement in this intensely challenging realm less difficult, and thereby to promote research and teaching in the study of the Holocaust, genocide, and mass political violence.
