Drawing together contributions and case studies from scholars around the globe, Memory and Trauma in International Relations, explores the international political dimension of feeling, suffering, forgetting, remembering and memorial- izing traumatic events, and aims to investigate how they function as social prac- tices for overcoming trauma and creating social change. Divided into two sections, the book maps out the different theoretical debates and then moves on to examine emerging themes such as ontological security, social change, gender, religion, foreign policy and natural disasters. Throughout the chapters, the authors consider the social, political and ethical implications of forgetting and remembering traumatic events in world politics. Showcasing how trauma and memory deepen our understanding of interna- tional relations (IR), this work will be of great interest to students and scholars of IR, memory and trauma studies, and security studies.

In this spirit, the Edkins–Vaughan-Williams Interventions series solicits cutting-edge, critical works that challenge mainstream understandings in international relations. It is the best place to contribute post-disciplinary works that think rather than merely recognize and af¿ rm the world recycled in IR’s traditional geopolitical imaginary. (Michael J. Shapiro, University of Hawai’i at Mãnoa, HI) The series aims to advance understanding of the key areas in which schol- ars working within broad critical post-structural and post-colonial traditions have chosen to make their interventions, and to present innovative analyses of important topics. Titles in the series engage with critical thinkers in philosophy, sociology, poli- tics and other disciplines, and provide situated historical, empirical and textual studies in international politics.
