Reconstructing Societies in the Aftermath of War

By Flavia Brizio-skov

Cultural Writing. During the past twenty years, the study of war has recorded a significant shift in scholarly attention from the purely military and political aspects of the event itself to its implications and effects on individuals--either soldiers or civilians--and on societies as a whole. This apporach has stimulated research in several areas: from history to literature, from sociology to psychology and political science, shedding light on the complexities of a subject of investigation which links the private and the public, the individual and the collective spheres of human agency in an intricate web of relations which are very difficult to grasp and account for entirely. Includes work by Erica Briccheto, Adele Maiello and John B. Romeiser.
