Excellent- More about Social Aspects of Memory: Stories of Victims and Perpetrators from Bosnia-Herzegovina
Social Aspects of Memory explores how ordinary people remember war, focusing on Sarajevo and East Sarajevo during the 1992-1995 war in Bosnia-Herzegovina. It adopts a unique approach by looking at how perpetrators and victims, as well as new generations, manage in the aftermath of war. The book explores the connections between memories for significant war events, transgenerational transmission of memories, bias for in-group wrongdoings, and readiness for reconciliation between two groups. It gives a voice to underrepresented narratives and prioritizes the importance of expression as a necessary catalyst for reconciliation.

Social Aspects of Memory is a captivating exploration of how ordinary individuals recall war. While the book primarily focuses on the cities of Sarajevo and East Sarajevo during the 1992-1995 war in Bosnia-Herzegovina, Jeftić also presents narratives from other war-ravaged cities and countries worldwide. This book adopts a distinctive approach by examining how perpetrators, victims, and new generations who may not have direct memories of the war navigate the aftermath. Jeftić delves into the formation of our memories of war and violence and explores ways to reconcile them, both individually and collectively.
Drawing on extensive empirical research conducted by the author, the book explores the intricate connections between memories of significant war events, the transmission of memories across generations, biases towards in-group wrongdoings, and the readiness for reconciliation between different groups. By giving voice to underrepresented narratives and emphasizing the crucial role of expression as a catalyst for reconciliation, this book becomes an essential read for those interested in collective and transgenerational memory, particularly in the context of the aftermath of the 1992-1995 war in Bosnia-Herzegovina.
