Objects, Memory, and Peacebuilding by Dody Wibowo
8 October 2019There is no single truth about the past. However, as Rei Foundation scholar Dody Wibowo argues, we are at times exposed to and asked to believe in a single definitive version of history. Wibowo explores the complex construction of his own understanding of traumatic historic events, an understanding primarily developed through intense experiences at government-run museums, first in his home country Indonesia, and then in Cambodia. Using the lens of peace education, he asks us to consider the motives and strategies of such museums, and suggests a way forward through museum practices that contribute to peacebuilding.
