The South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) is a modern social drama that enabled the nation’s apartheid past to be constructed as a cultural trauma. This book argues that the performative nature of the TRC effectively designated the past as profane and put a sacred community based on democratic idealism and universal solidarity.
