Academic Paper from the year 2021 in the subject Law - European and International Law, Intellectual Properties, grade: A+, , language: English, abstract: This paper's central argument is whether collective memory played a role in promoting social healing in Guatemala. Examining the cases of Rwanda and Guatemala demonstrate how collectively and individually remembering and telling the truth about unspeakable atrocities has played a central role in both official and personal efforts to reckon with the legacies of brutal dictatorships and to move forward towards democracy and healing. Individuals and societies face the challenge of dealing with memories of human rights violations in the aftermath of conflict. However, scholars have paid relatively little attention to how individuals and societies respond to group aggression concerning social practices, rituals, signs, and recovery by micro dynamics of remembrance.
Autoren-Porträt von Diamond Johnny
Diamond Johnny is an advocate for human rights and a public speaker. She has been a speaker on torture for Amnesty International and petitioned world governments on human rights abuses. She researches and writes on Indigenous topics and focuses her efforts on addressing critical issues that have hindered the implementation of the UN Declaration on Indigenous Peoples. Diamond believes that Indigenous peoples' rights are hampered because they are constantly relegated to the bottom of the hierarchy of law. There should be an effort to ensure that the rights of Indigenous people are respected whenever initiatives or actions directly impact them, as well as when such activities are taking place in their communities.Her book, Confronting the Silence and Creating a Shared Memory after a Violent Past: A Case Study of Guatemala, is important to her work as she believes that in the aftermath of war and armed conflict, individuals and communities face the challenge of dealing with recollections of violence and atrocity. Reconciliation is crucial for the nation to re-establish its stability in a post-conflict society.
