Sumario:Where conflict arises from the clash of cultures, memory also becomes a tool to help resolve and heal past wounds. € Ricoeur provides a hermeneutical key to examine conflicting narratives so that some shared truths can be arrived at in order to begin afresh. € As the many Truth Commissions around the world illustrate; revisiting the past has a positive benefit in steering history in a new direction after protracted violence.
