Memory And The Impact Of Political Transformation In Public Space

"This outstanding collection of essays pushes the boundaries of our understanding of how memory is a powerful force in political transformations around the world. Informed by theoretical writings, but not weighed down by them, the authors tell compelling stories of struggles over memory in a wide range of places. This volume should be read and pondered not only by those thinking and writing about how societies remember but also by those planners and architects and politicians who are rushing to memorialize our own traumatic events."-Max Page, author ofThe Creative Destruction of Manhattan, 19001940Walkowitz, Daniel J. is the author of 'Memory And The Impact Of Political Transformation In Public Space', published 2004 under ISBN 9780822333647 and ISBN 0822333643.
