Rezensionen

"The authors and editors of Post-Conflict Participatory Arts have brought together a jewel of a book, weaving together years of experience in many different countries with a strong theoretical framing. It offers much to practitioners and to scholars of both participatory methodology and of peace and social justice. Whether dance, photovoice, graffiti or participatory video, the book demonstrates some of the potential and limitations of participatory arts in challenging environments and offers hope and inspiration for those seeking to work across boundaries in post-conflict contexts." - Chris High, Lecturer in Peace and Development, Linnaeus University, Sweden
"This well-inquired book brings together ways in which the public is empowered to act, respond and interact around issues of civic engagement and political spaces through participatory art to improve people's lives and wellbeing. It investigates concepts such as agency, power, with a focus on human advancement viewpoint in post-conflict communities that are often ignored by unequal epistemic relations and neoliberal development agendas. While the book could be a critical asset for policy-makers, artists, and art-based organisations, it too reminds us of Eugene Delacroix's decree: 'What moves men of genius, or rather what rouses their work, is not new ideas, but their obsession with the idea that what has already been said is still not enough.'" - Peggy Himoonde, BBA History, Lusaka National Museum, Zambia

"Very insightful... The practicality of arts as an effective media towards the realization of epistemic/ social justice, is indeed a creative colorful approach." - Aubrey Bango, Visual Artist, Zimbabwe
