Kimberly Theidon

Intimate Enemies

Violence and Reconciliation in Peru

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Drawing on years of research in the highlands of Ayacucho, Kimberly Theidon explores how Peruvians are rebuilding individual lives and collective existence following twenty years of armed conflict. The micropolitics of reconciliation practiced there complicates the way we understand transitional justice and coexistence in the aftermath of war.
