Landscape, Memory, and Post-Violence in Cambodia

Selective memorialization of Cambodia's violent heritage, including sites like the 'killing fields' of Choeung Ek and unmarked mass graves, undermines the lived experiences of millions of Cambodians and hinders social justice and reconciliation efforts. This study inverts the traditional focus on heritage destruction during conflict to examine how sites of 'heritage violence' are threatened by selective memorialization, offering a grounded conceptual framework for post-violence in international conflict zones. The research employs critical heritage studies and engages with war, violence, and their cultural legacies to explore the production and impact of violent heritage.
