Beskrivning
Memory is at the center of a diverse array of political conflicts, moral disputes, and power dynamics. This book illustrates how scholars use different interpretive lenses to study and explain profound conflicts rooted in the past. Addressing issues of racism, genocide, trauma, war, nationalism, colonial occupation, and more, it highlights how our interpretations of contentious memories are indispensable to our understandings of contemporary conflicts and identities. Featuring an international group of scholars, this book makes important contributions to social memory studies, but also shows how studying memory is vital to our understanding of enduring social problems that span the globe.

Recensioner i media

“This book represents the state of the art in sociological memory studies. It will help sociologists understand why memory is so important, just as it will help non-sociological memory scholars understand what sociology has to offer the field.” Jeffrey Olick, University of Virginia
