Global Memoryscapes

“The empirically-grounded and theoretically-rich essays gathered in this collection emphasize the ways global debates over and encounters about memory may serve both as a viable alternative to and as a means of healing violence.”--Phaedra C. Pezzullo is an Associate Professor of Communication and Culture at Indiana University and the author of the award-winning Toxic Tourism: Rhetorics of Travel, Pollution, and Environmental Justice.

“This a quite timely topic, and the collection includes some excellent work that makes for compelling reading.”-- J. Macgregor Wise is a professor of communication studies at Arizona State University whose most recent book is Cultural Globalization: A User’s Guide

“Global Memoryscapes enriches the scholarly resources available to fuel thinking critically, and perhaps differently, about public memory in an environment where the borders of nation-states are increasingly permeable.”
