Central to it are the words of (male) Somali poets, Zulu singers, impoverished Kenyan youth, and white South African war veterans, as well as men and women trying to refashion their lives and relationships in post-war Mozambique and Rwanda. Purposefully interdisciplinary, this volume brings together scholarly approaches ranging from cultural and medical anthropology, social/cultural history, and cultural and performance studies. 410 0$aAfrican-Europe Group for Interdisciplinary Studies (Series) ;$vv. 5. 606 $aViolence$xSocial aspects$zAfrica$vCase studies 606 $aPolitical violence$xSocial aspects$zAfrica$vCase studies 606 $aWar and society$zAfrica$vCase studies 606 $aCollective memory$zAfrica$vCase studies 607 $aAfrica$xHistory$y1960- 615 0$aViolence$xSocial aspects 615 0$aPolitical violence$xSocial aspects 615 0$aWar and society 615 0$aCollective memory 676 $a303.6/60967 701 $aKapteijns$b Lidwien$0657702 701 $aRichters$b J.
