Description
Summary:This book, part of the 'Historia y Teoría' collection, explores the intersection of history, memory, and state violence through a philosophical lens. It delves into transitional justice processes in Argentina, South Africa, and Sierra Leone, highlighting the role of truth commissions in addressing past crimes. The author, Berber Bevernage, challenges the traditional divisions in the philosophy of history, questioning the objectivity and authority of academic historians. The work engages with speculative and critical philosophy, examining how historical narratives are constructed and contested in post-conflict societies. It is intended for scholars and students interested in historical theory, transitional justice, and the ethics of historical narratives.
