In considering how the Lebanese youth are negotiating this collective memory, Larkin addresses issues of:
Lebanese post-war amnesia and the gradual emergence of new memory discourses and public debates
Lebanese nationalism and historical memory
visual memory and mnemonic landscapes
oral memory and post-war narratives
war memory as an agent of ethnic conflict and a tool for reconciliation and peace-building.
trans-generational trauma or postmemory.
Shedding new light on trauma and the persistence of ethnic and religious hostility, this book offers a unique insight into Lebanon's recurring communal tensions and a fresh perspective on the issue of war memory. As such, this is an essential addition to the existing literature on Lebanon and will be relevant for scholars of sociology, Middle East studies, anthropology, politics and history.
