A pesar de que la violencia política desatada por Sendero Luminoso y el Movimiento Revolucionario Túpac Amaru contra el Estado Peruano (1980-2000) marcó profundamente nuestra historia, las políticas públicas de memoria y conmemoración de estos años son aún incipientes. No sorprende que la concreción de un proyecto estatal como el Lugar de la Memoria, la Tolerancia y la Inclusión Social (LUM) en Lima, capital de la República peruana, tuviera que responder a distintos retos, políticos,...

Resumen La impunidad de las violaciones de derechos humanos cometidas en el marco de la actividad empresarial ha sido motivo de preocupación para numerosos organismos internacionales en los últimos decenios.

"Esta obra comporta três partes nitidamente delimitadas pelo tema e pelo método. A primeira, que enfoca a memória e os fenômenos mnemônicos, está sob a égide da fenomenologia, no sentido husserliano do termo. A segunda, dedicada à história, procede de uma epistemologia das ciências históricas. A terceira, que culmina numa meditação sobre o esquecimento, enquadra-se numa hermenêutica da condição histórica dos seres humanos que somos. Mas essas três partes não constituem três livros. Embora os...

"Femme, réveille-toi !". Comment faire entendre sa voix en ce XVIIIe siècle qui grouille de paroles alors que grandit le silence divin ? Quel langage trouver pour avoir le sentiment d'être soi ? Comment exister à ce moment où la politique devient un théâtre de l'idéal mais aussi de la cruauté ? Comment, en somme, faire en sorte que "si la femme a le droit de monter sur l'échafaud", elle puisse aussi avoir le droit de "monter à la tribune" ? Voici quelques-unes des questions auxquelles tente...

Was heute wie eine Selbstverständlichkeit wirkt – das Recht auf die Einsichtnahme in die eigene Stasi-Akte oder die Möglichkeit der Überprüfung politischer Mandatsträger auf eine mögliche Spitzeltätigkeit für das Ministerium für Staatssicherheit – wu

Der Fall der Berliner Mauer und die Wiedervereinigung beendeten vierzig Jahre Trennung von Bundesrepublik und DDR. Diese Ereignisse waren zweifelsohne von nationaler und internationaler Bedeutung. Die empathische Erinnerung daran markiert den Gründungsmythos eines wiedervereinigten Deutschlands wie auch den eines sich erweiternden Europas.Mit größer werdendem zeitlichem Abstand wird diese euphorische Lesart allerdings zunehmend blasser. Nicht nur die Verwerfungen der Banken- und Eurokrise...

Using a dataset derived from a statistically valid sample of police records...

Contested Memories in Chinese and Japanese Foreign Policy explores the issue of memory and lack of reconciliation in East Asia. As main East Asian nations have never achieved a common memory of their pasts, in particular, the events of the Second World War and Sino-Japanese War, this book locates the issue of memory within International Relations theory, exploring the theoretical and practical link between the construction of a country’s identity and the formation and contestation of its...

The centrality of atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japanese collective memory has been often perceived by the country’s neighbours, i.e. the People’s Republic of China and South Korea, as a pillar of the country’s (alleged) ‘victim consciousness’ and amnesia in regard to the suffering inflicted on others. For this reason, the matter of how Hiroshima and Nagasaki’s fate is discussed on the pages of joint teaching materials is an interesting puzzle. The article uses two...
