More-than-human loss: Exploring the intersections of Indigeneity, conflict transitions and memory in Cambodia
The growing interest in Indigenous experience raises important questions for memory studies. Indigenous communities are thought to hold worldviews that include alternative conceptions of temporality, to remember social and cultural life in co-constitutive relationships with the more-than-human world, while occupying fraught relationships to the erasures that follow from dominant histories sanctioned by (colonial) state authorities. Drawing on int…
Translating Genocide, the Politics of Memory, and (In)Commensurabilities in Post-conflict Cambodia
This article examines the multiple translations of 'genocide' in Cambodia as prolai pouch-sas since the end of the Khmer Rouge Regime. It traces the term's double meaning from the authoritarian People's Republic of Kampuchea's (PRK) 1980s Khmer translation as the annihilation of the Cambodian nation, to the ECCC's international legal translation as the annihilation of difference in the 2000s. The PRK translation differed from the international le…
Indigeneity, precarity, and peace: Lessons from Cambodia
Indigenous communities occupy complex positions within Cambodia’s histories of conflict, transition and peace. Since the advent of a UN backed peace process in the 1990s, Indigenous communities have experienced multiple, intersecting exclusions: Indigenous communities have faced hostility and discrimination, positioned as a marginal and less developed ‘other’; the legislation of new regimes of land titling embedded new forms of material insecurit…
Ethnocentrism of Victimhood: Tracing the Discourses of Khmer Ethnicity in Precolonial and Colonial Cambodia
This article demonstrates that precolonial Khmer ethnicity played an essential role in the Cambodian court’s relations with those of Siam and Vietnam in the mid-19th century because Cambodia’s ruling elite and religious leaders often adopted ethnic politics in relation to the Khmer to resist threats that the neighbouring courts imposed on them. Developed as ‘ethnocentrism of victimhood’, which integrates real or imagined depictions of external in…
Reparative remembering for just futures: History education, multiple perspectives and responsibility
The growing literature around reparative futures in education agrees on the importance of multiple and inclusive narratives for learning about the past. Indeed, it is recognised that multiplicity has to be part of a reparative account of history given the harms caused by single, exclusionary and hegemonic historical narratives. However, there is limited literature, pedagogical guidance or accounts of how multiple perspectives approaches apprehend…
Counting Tigers. Estimating the Number of Khmer Rouge During Democratic Kampuchea
While victim numbers are frequently estimated for past events of genocide and authoritarian rule, there has so far been less discussion of perpetrator numbers. This is surprising considering the recent interest in perpetrators, their motivations and their trajectories. In the case of Cambodia, this is primarily due to a lack of archival documentation. While these are indeed not insignificant, this article seeks to contribute to the historical rec…
Alexander Laban Hinton. Man or Monster? The Trial of a Khmer Rouge Torturer
Powers operation of Japan .It did not mention Asia, and it banned the Japanese imperial -but local-term "Daita Sens" (Greater East Asian War) together with "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere" in order not to resurrect Japan's "foolish" empire and democratize the state.The Japanese literary critic Et Jun wrote that this change erased the presence and meaning of Daita Sens and filled the void with the selective account that the war was fought …
Education as site of memory: Developing a research agenda
The field of memory studies tends to focus attention on the ‘3Ms’ – museums, monuments, memorials – as sites where memories are constructed, communicated, and contested. Where education is identified as a site for memory, the focus is often narrowly on what is or is not communicated within curricula or textbooks, assuming that schools simply pass on messages agreed or struggled over elsewhere. This article explores the possibilities opened when e…
