Description

Winner of the 2018 Comparative & International Education Society's Jackie Kirk Outstanding Book Award and the 2018 Council on Anthropology of Education's Outstanding Book Award In the aftermath of armed conflict, how do new generations of young people learn about peace, justice, and democracy? Michelle J. Bellino describes how, following Guatemala's civil war, adolescents at four schools in urban and rural communities learn about their country's history of authoritarianism and develop civic identities within a fragile postwar democracy. Through rich ethnographic accounts, Youth in Postwar Guatemala, traces youth experiences in schools, homes, and communities, to examine how knowledge and attitudes toward historical injustice traverse public and private spaces, as well as generations. Bellino documents the ways that young people critically examine injustice while shaping an evolving sense of themselves as civic actors. In a country still marked by the legacies of war and division, young people navigate between the perilous work of critiquing the flawed democracy they inherited, and safely waiting for the one they were promised... Review "Youth in Postwar Guatemala is a study that will appeal to those in our eld who are interested in historical memory, youth, citizenship, and anthropological approaches to violence."-- "Journal on Education in Emergencies""Quality studies like Bellino's Youth in Postwar Guatemala enrich and contribute to our understanding of contemporary Guatemala. Those interested in exploring and learning about the country and the region Guatemala will appreciate, benefit from, and enjoy Bellino's short but deep study."-- "H-Net""Rich and reflexive account...a multifaceted narrative. This is thick description at its best, a sensitive and nuanced portrayal of a complex and heart-breaking reality. It is a book which should be read by anyone carrying out research or working in development in Guatemala, especially those with a focus on youth empowerment."-- "Anthropology in Action""Youth in Postwar Guatemala is a gripping ethnographic portrait of learning to become civic actors in the face of enduring legacies of civil war. It challenges us to re-think basic assumptions about developing democratic citizenship education policies in post-conflict societies." --Thea Renda Abu El-Haj "author of Unsettled Belonging: Educating Palestinian American Youth after 9/11""A heartbreakingly beautiful narrative account of how students and teachers at four very different Guatemalan secondary schools negotiate the complexities of history and identity. Bellino provides a brilliant model of nuanced inquiry into the vicissitudes of citizenship education for fragile democracies."--Bradley Levinson "author of Beyond Critique: Exploring Critical Social Theories and Education" About the Author Michelle J. Bellino is an assistant professor at the University of Michigan School of Education in Ann Arbor.
