Produktbeschreibung
This book focuses on the social voids that were the result of occupation, genocide, mass killings, and population movements in Europe during and after the Second World War. Historians, sociologists, and anthropologists adopt comparative perspectives on those who now lived in 'cleansed' borderlands. Its contributors explore local subjectivities of social change through the concept of 'No Neighbors' Lands': How does it feel to wear the dress of your murdered neighbor? How does one get used to friends, colleagues, and neighbors no longer being part of everyday life? How is moral, social, and legal order reinstated after one part of the community participated in the ethnic cleansing of another? How is order restored psychologically in the wake of neighbors watching others being slaughtered by external enemies? This book sheds light on how destroyed European communities, once multi-ethnic and multi-religious, experienced postwar reconstruction, attempted to come to terms with what hadhappened, and negotiated remembrance.

Rezensionen
"The volume succeeds to deconstruct unilateral memory narratives by drawing attention to the emotionality and materiality of losses, by showing different scales of individual agency in the context of structural, state-imposed violence, and by unveiling the social dimension of many national conflicts. No Neighbors' Land is a fruitful contribution to the historiographical and mnemopolitical discussion of experiences of violence during and after the Second World War." (Laura Clarissa Loew, Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen, H-Soz-Kult, hsozkult.de, December 5, 2023)
