Peacebuilding, Memory and
Reconciliation

This book aims to bridge the gap between what are generally referred to as top-down and bottom-up approaches to peacebuilding.

After the experience of a physical and psychological trauma, the period of individual healing and recovery is intertwined with political and social reconciliation. The prospects for social and political reconciliation are undermined when a top-down approach is favoured over the bottom-up strategy- the prioritization of structural stability over societal well-being.

Peacebuilding, Memory and Reconciliation explores the inextricable link between psychological recovery and socio-political reconciliation, and the political issues that dominate this relationship. Through an examination of the construction of social narratives about or for peace, the text offers a new perspective on peacebuilding, which challenges and questions the very nature of the dichotomy between top-down and bottom-up approaches.

This book will be of much interest to students of peacebuilding, peace and conflict studies, social psychology, political science and IR in general.

Bruno Charbonneau is Associate Professor in the Department of Political Science, Laurentian University, Canada. He has a PhD in Political Studies.

Genevive Parent is Assistant Professor in Conflict Studies at St Paul University, Canada, and has a PhD in Criminology.

Series: Studies in Conflict, Development and Peacebuilding

Series Editors: Keith Krause, Thomas J. Biersteker and Riccardo Bocco

Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies, Geneva

This series publishes innovative research into the connections between insecurity and under-development in fragile states, and into situations of violence and insecurity more generally. It adopts a multidisciplinary approach to the study of a variety of issues, including the changing nature of contemporary armed violence (conflict), efforts to foster the conditions that prevent the outbreak or recurrence of such violence (development), and strategies to promote peaceful relations on the communal, societal and international level (peacebuilding).
