This volume explores the ways communities cope with—endure, work through, break apart under, transcend—traumatic and other more insidious forms of violence, addressing the effects of violence at the level of local worlds, interpersonal relations, and individual lives. The contributors highlight the complex relationship between recognition of suffering in the public sphere and experience suffering in people’s everyday lives. Buy on Amazon.
