Abstract
The

objective

of

this

thesis

is

to

answer

the

following

research

question:

How

can

creative

tools

be

utilized

to

facilitate

processes

of

societal

reconciliation

after

terrorism?

Creative

tools

are

understood

as

metaphors,

stories

and

rituals,

functioning

as

potential

instruments

in

conflict

resolution

and

reconciliation.

Concepts

and

understandings

connected

to

terrorism

and

reconciliation

as

phenomena

are

investigated,

in

order

to

discuss

societal

efforts

of

reconciliation

after

terrorism.

The

thesis

looks

to

reconciliation

as

healing

and

restoration

of

the

ruptured

society,

specifically

focusing

on

the

damage

and

ruptures

caused

by

terrorist

attacks

on

the

symbolic

dimensions

within

a

society.

It

is

argued

that

such

an

objective

requires

a

different

set

of

tools

and

concepts

than

those

utilized

in

handling

the

material

dimensions

of

the

destruction.
