This volume brings together world experts to explore the current critical trends in memory studies, an area of increasing interest to both scholars and the general public. Essays examine diverse but interconnected phenomena, including 21st-century museums, shocking memorials in present-day Rwanda, and the firsthand testimony of the victims of genocidal conflicts. Contributors also deal with important topics such as the relationship between personal and public memory, and the generational transmission of memory.
