Introducing the concept of complex victimhood, she argues that abducted women were not passive victims, but navigated complex social and political worlds that were life inside the violent armed group. Exploring the life stories of thirty women, Baines considers the possibilities of storytelling to reclaim one's sense of self and relations to others, and to generate political judgement after mass violence. Buried in the Heart moves beyond victim and perpetrator frameworks prevalent in the field of transitional justice, shifting the attention to stories of living through mass violence and the possibilities of remaking communities after it. The book contributes to an overlooked aspect of international justice: women's political agency during wartime.Cambridge studies in law and society.WomenCrimes againstUgandaResilience (Personality trait)UgandaTransitional justiceUgandaWomen and warUgandaWomenCrimes againstResilience (Personality trait)Transitional justiceWomen and war967.6104/40926949Baines Erin K.1969-1075258UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910155151603321Buried in the heart2584276UNINA
