This book presents a social scientific reading of the challenges of
memory and recovery in times of crisis. Drawing on different
interpretations of what constitutes 'crisis', this collection uses
lenses of economics, identity and commemoration, to question how
memory and recovery is being constituted through larger discourses
of political claims of moving forward, healing and identity. Memory
and Recovery in Times of Crisis examines how memory is dis- or
re-interred through social processes and further, how recovered
memories are challenged or legitimized. It also presents a set of
questions that will stimulate further reflections on what kind of
role understandings of memory of crisis can play in recovery. Given
the world we find ourselves living in in 2017 - a world subject to
multiple, intersecting crises - how we understand the dynamics of
memory and recovery is a pressing issue indeed. This book will
appeal to both scholars and students of anthropology and sociology.
