How do memories circulate transnationally and to what effect? How
to understand the enduring role of national memories and their
simultaneous reconfiguration under globalization? Challenging the
methodological nationalism that has until recently dominated the
study of memory and heritage, this book charts the rich production
of memory across and beyond national borders. Arguing for the
fruitfulness of a transnational as distinct from a global approach,
it places the issues of circulation, articulation and the scales of
remembrance at the centre of its inquiry. In the process, it sheds
new light on the ways in which mediation, post-coloniality,
migration and regional integration affect both the way we remember
and the role of memory in contemporary societies. In this
interdisciplinary collection, humanities and social science
scholars examine a rich sample of cases from the nineteenth century
on, stretching across the globe from Vietnam to Europe and the
Middle East, to the USA and the Pacific, and involving a wide range
of cultural practices from quilting to films, from photography to
heritage sites and monuments. In the process, the volume develops a
new theoretical framework while proposing new methodological tools
and resources for studying collective remembrance beyond the
nation-state.
