Reviews'You won't read it with one eye cocked at the latest episode of 'Eastenders', it will give you a chance to think about things central to this society's past and future.', 'If you want a summary on the various issues surrounding forgiveness, if you want an insight into the experiences of those from different parts of the community who have had to struggle with these issues at first hand, and if you want to catch glimpses of hope in what is still, for many, a difficult place, you'll find it here.', 'Inevitably in such a collection, we find a mixture of theory and practice, but that is the strength of the book. Each chapter invites careful reflection, the effect of which is to be reminded that forgiving and remembering really matter... Spencer is to be congratulated on producing an important contribution to a subject of relevance far beyond Northern Ireland.'

SynopsisAn exploration of forgiving and remembering in post-conflict Northern Ireland, with implications for other societies emerging from conflict., As Northern Ireland moves from conflict to tentative peace, ongoing violence and unrest underline that the province remains a turbulent and troubled society. This book brings together contributions from those directly affected by the Troubles who work for peace and reconciliation in their communities. GRAHAM SPENCER is Reader in Politics, Conflict and the Media at the University of Portsmouth, UK. He has written widely on the media and the Northern Ireland peace process and is currently researching victims of political violence, and political reconciliation.
