Ebook: Critical Memory Studies: New Approaches

Bringing together a diverse array of new and established scholars and creative writers in the rapidly expanding field of memory studies, this collection creatively delves into the multiple aspects of memory. Contributors explore race-ing memory; environmental studies and memory; digital memory; monuments, memorials, and museums; memory and trauma, and many other aspects of this important and wide-ranging area.
Organised around seven sections, this book examines memory in a global context, from Kashmir and Chile to the US and UK. Featuring contributions on topics as wide-ranging as the Black Lives Matter movement; the AIDS crisis; and memory and the anthropocene, this book traces and consolidates the field while analysing and charting some of the most cutting-edge work being done at present.
