Human remains in society. Curation and exhibition in the aftermath of genocide and mass-violence | Elisabeth Anstett y Jean-Marc Dreyfus | Libro |
Ya sea (re)enterrados, ocultos, almacenados, abandonados o expuestos públicamente, los restos humanos plantean un gran número de cuestiones relacionadas con sus usos sociales, legales y éticos. Este libro presenta un relato innovador del tratamiento y dignificación de los cadáveres resultantes de genocidio u otras violencias, a partir de una serie de estudios de casos internacionales, en los que se explora el efecto que los restos humanos tienen en diversas prácticas políticas, culturales y religiosas.
De alcance multidisciplinario, el libro pretende atraer a lectores/as interesados/as en las fases cruciales de la reconciliación post-conflicto, incluyendo estudiantes e investigadores de Historia, Antropología, Sociología, Arqueología, Derecho y/o Política.
