<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>This volume inscribes an innovative domain of inquiry, bringing museum and heritage studies to bear on questions of transitional justice, memory and post-conflict reconciliation. As practitioners, artists, curators, activists and academics, the contributors explore the challenges of bearing witness to past conflicts.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>'How to put difficult knowledge on public display is one of the biggest challenges for curators. It is also of major importance in contemporary civic life: what should be said and shown in museums, and how? This raises fascinating and complex intellectual and political questions. This book exposes and tackles these brilliantly through excellent discussion of a wide range of provocative cases. It should be read by anybody concerned with the dilemmas of curating difficult knowledge.' - Sharon Macdonald, Professor of Social Anthropology, University of Manchester, UK</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>ANDREW HERSCHER Teacher, Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning, University of Michigan, USA HEATHER IGLOLIORTE Inuk Curator and art historian from the Nunatsiavut Territory of Labrador, Canada SLAWOMIR KAPRALSKI Faculty member, Warsaw School of Social Sciences and Humanities, Poland TAMAR KATRIEL Author and Researcher into the Occupied Palestinian Territories ERIN MOSELY Ph.D. Candidate in African Studies and History at Harvard University, USA DARREN NEWBURY Professor of Photography, Birmingham City University, UK ROGER SIMON Professor Emeritus at the University of Toronto, Canada AMY SODARO Ph.D. Candidate in Sociology at the New School for Social Research, USA VIV SZEKERES Graduate in History and Education, London, UK.
