This handbook provides the first systematic integrated analysis of
the role that states or state actors play in the construction of
history and public memory after 1945. The book focuses on many
different forms of state-sponsored history, including memory laws,
monuments and memorials, state-archives, science policies, history
in schools, truth commissions, historical expert commissions, the
use of history in courts and tribunals etc. The handbook
contributes to the study of history and public memory by combining
elements of state-focused research in separate fields of study. By
looking at the state's memorialising capacities the book introduces
an analytical perspective that is not often found in classical
studies of the state. The handbook has a broad geographical focus
and analyses cases from different regions around the world. The
volume mainly tackles democratic contexts, although dictatorial
regimes are not excluded.
