Bøker av David William Cohen

How is historical knowledge produced? And how do silence and forgetting figure in the knowledge we call history? This exploration of these questions exposes the circumstantial nature of history, revealing the economic, social and political forces at play in history's production.

The Risks of Knowledge minutely examines the multiple and unfinished investigations into the murder of Kenya's distinguished Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, Robert Ouko, and raises important issues about the production of knowledge and the politics of memory.
