This open access book provides a concise introduction to a critical
development in memory studies. A global memory formation has
emerged since the 1990s, in which memories of traumatic histories
in different parts of the world, often articulated in the terms
established by Holocaust memory, have become entangled, reconciled,
contested, conflicted and negotiated across borders. As historical
actors and events across time and space become connected in new
ways, new grounds for contest and competition arise; claims to the
past that appeared de-territorialized in the global memory
formation become re-territorialized - deployed in the service of
nationalist projects. This poses challenges to scholarship but also
to practice: How can we ensure that shared or comparable memories
of past injustice continue to be grounds for solidarity between
different memory communities? In chapters focusing on Europe, East
Asia and Africa, five scholars respond to these challenges from a
range of disciplinary perspectives in the humanities.
