(Post)-Colonial memories – pressing concerns for peace research

The legacies of colonial violence haunt the present. This roundtable discusses the active imprint of colonialism on present-day peacebuilding. In focus will be lived experiences of post-colonial realities in the everyday of African Great Lakes societies, the emotional process of negotiating reparations in Belgium’s Parliamentary Commission on the colonial past, and the critical curating of objects of pain from colonial pasts.
