Description

In this extraordinary new text, an international array of scholars explore the enduring legacy of such social shocks as war, genocide, slavery, tyranny, crime, and disease. Among the cases addressed are – instances of genocide in Turkey, Cambodia, and Russia – the plight of the families of Holocaust survivors, atomic bomb survivors in Japan, and even the children of Nazis – the long-term effects associated with the Vietnam War and the war in Yugoslavia – and the psychology arising from the legacy of slavery in America.
