This book bridges theoretical gaps that exist between the
meta-concepts of memory, place and identity by positioning its lens
on the emplaced practices of commemoration and the remembrance of
war and conflict. This book examines how diverse publics relate to
their wartime histories through engagements with everyday
collective memories, in differing places. Specifically addressing
questions of place-making, displacement and identity, contributions
shed new light on the processes of commemoration of war in everyday
urban facades and within generations of families and national
communities. Contributions seek to clarify how we connect with
memories and places of war and conflict. The spatial and narrative
manifestations of attempts to contextualise wartime memories of
loss, trauma, conflict, victory and suffering are refracted through
the roles played by emotion and identity construction in the
shaping of post-war remembrances. This book offers a
multidisciplinary perspective, with insights from history, memory
studies, social psychology, cultural and urban geography, to
contextualise memories of war and their 'use' by national
governments, perpetrators, victims and in family histories.
