This work is the first of its kind to 'map' these new institutions and cultural spaces, which, although varying widely in size, style, and political situation, are nonetheless united in their desire to promote peace, tolerance, and the avoidance of future violence. Includes bibliographical references and index. vii, 226 pages : illustrations ; 25 cm
