| Language | ENG |
| Author | Gray, Tallyn |
| Summary / Abstract (Note) | This article focuses on the experience of the Cham Muslim minority in the Cambodian holocaust, which almost obliterated them. It explores the impact of the United Nations/Royal Government of Cambodia’s hybrid tribunal system, the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC), on Cham cultural identity since the fall of the Democratic Kampuchean regime in 1979. In particular, it examines social and historical knowledge transfer between those who survived the regime and the generation born after 1979, and the respective roles of globalized Islam and the ECCC in addressing this knowledge transfer. It uses interviews with a Cham scholar, imams and community leaders, ECCC staff, and a lawyer who represents many Cham civil party clients at the Courts. |
