Review # 1 was written on 2008-07-17 00:00:00 Craig Johnson A contemporary collection of essays on the challenges of cultural collectivity through memory, especially in contested historical moments of competing narrativizing, especially at the level of the nation-state; essays on collective memory regarding the Holocaust, Israel/Palestine, and South American dictatorships (Chile) are especially well-done.

Review # 2 was written on 2010-05-04 00:00:00 Todd Reddick great anthology with many big names in memory and culture studies. the geographical, historical, and artistic reach of the collection makes for engaging reading.
