Through multiple readings, the volume shows the meanings and functions of witnessing in a political and historical context marked by the emergence of multiculturalism. The ultimate goal is the exploration of divergent and intersectional positions of the witness and witnessing as both concrete and hermeneutical categories. As a result, the mechanisms of social, political, and psychological oppression, murder and genocide will become tangible and understandable with greater precision and finesse." 504 Includes bibliography and index. 505 00 |tIntroduction / |rManuela Consonni and Philip Nord -- |tThe witness to genocide in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries / |rCarolyn J.
