Kirk Simpson

Truth recovery in Northern Ireland

Critically interpreting the past

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book is a unique analysis of truth recovery in post-conflict Northern Ireland. It proposes a new model of victim and perpetrator dialogue that is entirely victim-centred, suggesting that only a 'moral bottom line' in which violence is dismissed as universally wrong can assists in the effective democratic reconstruction of Northern Ireland.
