Historical injustice and reconciliation

Oorlog en vrede
Political philosopher Lea Ypi on how to deal with historical injustice.

When a conflict ends, many questions often remain unanswered. Is figuring out the truth always necessary to move forward? How to deal with historical injustice on a personal and collective level? Political philosopher and prize winning author Prof. Lea Ypi (London School of Economics) draws on her own family history in post-war Communist Albania to examine the links between historical injustice, truth and reconciliation.

In collaboration with Focus area Migration and Societal Change.

About this series

Oorlog en vrede

Met de inval van Rusland in Oekraïne komt oorlog weer dichtbij. Terwijl in de kranten analisten en opiniemakers elkaar bestoken met voorspellingen over het verloop van het conflict, nemen wij in deze serie een stap terug. Van desinformatie en strijdende hackers, tot vredesonderhandelingen en wederopbouw: met wetenschappers duiden we het fenomeen oorlog.
