Collective memory can make and break political culture around the
world. Representations and reinterpretations of the past intersect
with actions that shape the future. A nation's political culture
emerges from complex layers of institutional and individual
responses to historical events. Society changes and is changed by
these layers of memory over time. Understanding them gives us
insight into where we are today. Encompassing examples from
colonization and decolonization, revolving around the critical
junctures of the world wars, this book illustrates how collective
memory is produced and organized, through commemoration, through
monuments, and through individuals sharing stories. Using concrete
examples from around the world, James H. Liu shows how different
disciplines can come together through shared concepts like
narratives and generational memories to provide mutually enriching
perspectives on how political culture is made, and how it changes.
