Narratives of Survival

The aim of the conference is to draw together people working in a wide 
range of
academic fields to explore how we record, remember and commemorate the major
traumatic events of the 20th century (from the Boer wars to the massacres in
Rwanda and the former Yugoslavia), and what are the long term social, 
cultural
and political consequences of tragic events that involved large numbers of
people.
