Reparative Pedagogies

Available open access digitally under CC-BY-NC-ND licence.

How can education about histories of conflict and atrocities repair harm and division whilst avoiding the pitfalls of universal, decontextualised approaches?

Presenting illuminating research from the Education, Justice and Memory Network across ten countries, this vital collection identifies layers of injustice in post-conflict societies and shows how creative pedagogical approaches can redress past harm. Contributors examine the complex interplay between memory, justice and education, revealing how reparative pedagogies can tackle colonial legacies and ongoing inequalities.

The book is an essential resource for educators, heritage practitioners, policy makers and researchers working on transitional justice, peace education and educational responses to conflict.
