For several decades, a political discourse, which incites exclusion
and hatred against those who are perceived as different, has been
gaining ground, most notably in affluent and developed countries.
Racism is back, and antiracism is no longer accepted as an argument
that suffices in itself. Focusing on the growth of racism in large
cities and urban areas, this volume represents views by scholars
from around the world, who work in different social sciences, on
the one hand; on the other, it offers statements by non-practicing
academics such as culture brokers, journalists and. The book is
conceived in such a way that the contributions of the scientists
and the non-academic specialists are grouped around common themes,
highlighting existing debates and bringing together widely
scattered information. Labour politics, cultural selectionism,
separate education for minorities and majorities and other projects
point in the direction of more exclusion and racism. Community
work, intercultural education and political organization of
religious practices explore alternative avenues.
During the fifty years since the end of hostilities, European
literary memories of the war have undergone considerable change,
influenced by the personal experiences of writers as well as
changing political, social, and cultural factors. This volume
examines changing ways of remembering the war in the literatures of
France, Germany, and Italy; changes in the subject of memory, and
in the relations between fiction, autobiography, and documentary,
with the focus being on the extent to which shared European
memories of the war have been constructed.
