Opis
Sažetak:This book challenges the asymmetries in dialogues between the Global South and Global North. The book considers how the literature on reparative politics in itself often perpetuates Western-centric models which risk leading to paternalistic approaches, as well as undermining the agency of thinkers, activists, and victims within the Global South. Encouraging a dialogue between the Global North and South, the book considers questions of affirmative action, collective memory, and alternative frameworks for dialogue on reparations. Authors also explore whether reparative policies should aim solely to repair past wrongs, or to also address ongoing structural inequalities and systemic injustices, including symbolic and affective dimensions. Interdisciplinary by design, this book will be an important read for researchers across the fields of political science, international relations, global studies, and sociology.
