Revenge, retribution, reconciliation

About this book

"This volume is based on a workshop held on 6 June 2013 by the Martin Buber Society of Fellows in the Humanites and Social Sciences at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem." "This volume explores how individuals, groups, and societies in a variety of cultural contexts, political settings, and time periods respond to the perpretation of injustices. Approaching the concepts of revenge, retribution, and reconciliation from multi-disciplinary and cross-cultural perspectives, the contributors to this anthology offer a broad spectrum of scholarly analyses."
