Remembering Social Movements offers a comparative historical
examination of the relations between social movements and
collective memory. A detailed historiographical and theoretical
review of the field introduces the reader to five key concepts to
help guide analysis: repertoires of contention, historical events,
generations, collective identities, and emotions. The book examines
how social movements act to shape public memory as well as how
memory plays an important role within social movements through 15
historical case studies, spanning labour, feminist, peace,
anti-nuclear, and urban movements, as well as specific examples of
'memory activism' from the 19th century to the 21st century. These
include transnational and explicitly comparative case studies, in
addition to cases rooted in German, Australian, Indian, and
American history, ensuring that the reader gains a real insight
into the remembrance of social activism across the globe and in
different contexts. The book concludes with an epilogue from a
prominent Memory Studies scholar. Bringing together the previously
disparate fields of Memory Studies and Social Movement Studies,
this book systematically scrutinises the two-way relationship
between memory and activism and uses case studies to ground
students while offering analytical tools for the reader.

Heritage is not what we see in front of us, it is what we make of
it in our heads. Heritage sites have been connected to a range of
identarian projects, both spatial and non-spatial. One of the most
common links with heritage has been national identity. This book
stresses that heritage has developed powerful links to regional and
local identities. Contributors deal explicitly with regions of
heavy industry in different parts of the world, exploring
non-spatial forms of identity: including class, religious, ethnic,
racial, gender and cultural identities. In many heritage sites,
non-spatial forms of identity are interlinked with spatial ones.
Civil society action has been important in representations of
regional identities and industrial-heritage campaigns.
Region-branding seems to determine the ultimate success of
industrial heritage, a process that is closely connected to the
marketing of regions to provide a viable economic future and
attract tourism to the region. Selected case-studies on coal and
steel producing regions in this book provide the first global
survey of how regions of heavy industry deal with their industrial
heritage, and what it means for regional identity and
region-branding. This book draws a range of powerful conclusions
about the path dependency of particular forms for post-industrial
regional identity in former regions of heavy industry. It
highlights both commonalities and differences in the strategies
employed with regard to the regions' industrial heritage. This book
will appeal to lecturers, students and scholars in the fields of
heritage management, industrial studies and cultural geography .
During his political career, Helmut Kohl used his own life story to
promote a normalization of German nationalism and to overcome the
stigma of the Nazi period. In the context of the cold war and the
memory of the fascist past, he was able to exploit the combination
of his religious, generational, regional, and educational (he has a
PhD in History) experiences by connecting nationalist ideas to
particular biographical narratives. Kohl presented himself as the
embodiment of "normality": a de-radicalized German nationalism
which was intended to eclipse any anti-Western and post-national
peculiarities. This book takes a biographical approach to the study
of nationalism by examining its manifestation in Helmut Kohl and
the way he historicized Germany's past.

Exploring two large economies which were heavily affected by
deindustrialisation in the late twentieth century, this book
provides insights into the social movements that brought about and
also challenged industrial reduction in Europe. Both the Ruhr
region in Germany and the Northwest of Italy experienced major
structural transformation from the 1960s as a result of
deindustrialisation. With contributions from experts in the field,
this collection provides a comparative overview of each region,
examining policy implementation, class relations, the changing
political economy and environmental impact. Analysing industrial
and post-industrial landscapes, urban developments and labour
relations, the authors place their transnational findings within
the context of the wider literature on deindustrialisation in the
global North. A much-needed contribution to deindustrialisation
studies, which have traditionally focused on North America and the
UK, this book is a useful read for those researching
deindustrialisation and the social history of Europe.
