Grassroots memorials have become major areas of focus during times
of trauma, danger, and social unrest. These improvised memorial
assemblages continue to display new and more dynamic ways of
representing collective and individual identities and in doing so
reveal the steps that shape the national memories of those who
struggle to come to terms with traumatic loss. This volume focuses
on the hybrid quality of these temporary memorials as both
monuments of mourning and as focal points for protest and
expression of discontent. The broad range of case studies in this
volume include anti-mafia shrines, Theo van Gogh's memorial,
September 11th memorials, March 11th shrines in Madrid, and Carlo
Giuliani memorials in Genoa.
