Genocide

This research examines how collective memory of genocide is shaped by memorial sites, revealing that certain sites play a pivotal role in fostering societal remembrance while others remain overlooked. The study highlights discrepancies in global recognition, with some genocides being more prominently remembered than others, despite their historical significance. To investigate this phenomenon, the research employs a dual approach: fieldwork and personal narratives at three specific sites to analyze their impact on collective memory, and reflective conversations centered on Cambodia as a case of genocide that has been largely forgotten. By exploring these methods, the study aims to uncover the mechanisms through which society processes traumatic historical events and how this understanding can contribute to preventing future atrocities.
