In the Name of History by Joan Wallach Scott
Requirements: .PDF reader, 4 MB
Overview: In this book Joan Wallach Scott discusses the role history has played as an arbiter of right and wrong and of those who claim to act in its name―”in the name of history.” Scott investigates three different instances in which repudiation of the past was conceived as a way to a better future: the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg in 1946, the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission in 1996, and the ongoing movement for reparations for slavery in the United States.
