Reconciliation as a Historical Process
Abstract
This chapter understands reconciliation as an historical process, inseparably connected to communication processes, processes of remembrance, and the transformation processes of individual and collective memories. The author aims to link the issues of reconciliation and remembrance, and uses the historical example of the Germans coming to terms with their past (“Vergangenheitsbewältigung”) after 1945 to categorize a specific reconciliation process into different contextual levels and thereby answer the question, whether or not the German reconciliation process has been successfully completed. This chapter also aims to seek possible fields of comparison with other reconciliation processes that have taken place in different time and spatial settings. Such a “comparison of differences and variables within the context of reconciliation processes” will be elaborated through an abstraction of structural components, using the example of Germany after the Second World War.
