Exploring the intersection of art and war, Laura Edmondson analyzes how cultural production responds to significant conflicts in the Great Lakes Region, including the Rwandan genocide and the civil war in Uganda. She delves into various forms of artistic expression, such as memorial ceremonies and contemporary dance, highlighting how these works challenge state and humanitarian narratives shaped by imperial influences. By contextualizing these cultural responses within their political environments, Edmondson enhances our understanding of the vital role of creativity in conflict and postconflict situations.
