Exploring the role of memory in political transitions, this book delves into Ethiopian history and the significance of the Red Terror Martyrs Memorial Museum in Addis Ababa. It examines the interplay of global and local forces in shaping memory and transitional justice, highlighting the often-overlooked history of the Red Terror. Through the perspectives of memory advocates, survivor-docents, and visitors, it reveals how traumatic memory can disrupt rather than create new communities, positioning memory as a complex and ambiguous social force.
