Collective Memories in War
This edited collection offers an empirical exploration of social memory in the context of politics, war, identity and culture. With a substantive focus on Eastern Europe, it employs the methodologies of visual studies, content and discourse analysis, in- depth interviews and surveys to substantiate how memory narratives are composed and rewritten in changing ideological and political contexts. The book examines various historical events, including the RussianAfghan War of 19791989 and Second World War, and considers public and local rituals, monuments and museums, textbook accounts, gender and the body. As such, it provides a rich picture of post-socialist memory construction and function based in interdisciplinary memory studies.
