History, Memory, and State-Sponsored Violence: Time and Justice

By Berber Bevernage

Book Overview

This book is centered around the thesis that the way one deals with historical injustice and the ethics of history is strongly dependent on the way one conceives of historical time; that the concept of time traditionally used by historians is structurally more compatible with the perpetrators' than the victims' point of view.
