Reviews

“For future research and study, this guide lays the foundation for an academic piece solely dedicated to the history of the forgotten and silenced. … The guide is valuable in its reporting of a broad range of themes, successfully allowing the reader to make national, transnational and global connections, whilst providing an in-depth reference to the state of affairs of History education in a post-Cold War setting.” (Dominique du Toit, Yesterday & Today, Vol. 22, 2019)
