On a collective scale, the two world wars and the wars of decolonization have left behind generations marked by the experience of disrupted bonds with parents. On a private level, recent years have seen a growing awareness of the presence of violence even in the family sphere. It is precisely at the point where violence and filiation collide that this symposium intends to focus. We propose to examine the impact of private and public violence on questions of filiation in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.
