This work, the first ever dedicated to the study of mass funeral treatment, provides a comparative and critical analysis of the fate of human remains produced in contexts that share a history marked by the experience of armed struggles or extreme violence. How do funeral rituals unfold when there are dozens, hundreds, or thousands of bodies to bury simultaneously? Do ordinary ritual grammars remain operative? The European and Latin American cases addressed in this volume document collective burials and their political stakes in religious environments deeply influenced by the major monotheistic traditions, giving rise to symbolic practices embedded in a plurality of syncretic universes.
