Body and Genocidal Suffering
Jacques, Alexia
Body and Genocidal Suffering - 2012.
37
This article explores the process of dehumanisation and its effects on individuals, and more particularly on their bodies. In order to approach the universe of dehumanisation, the authors descended into the narrative of unthinkable genocidal violence that occurred in the Great Lakes Region in Burundi. Two big questions guided their reflection : the body and the paradox. The case of Nemesa, a young Burundi ex-rebel, gave us thought as to the paradoxical forms of suffering related to extreme and inhuman violence.
