Synopsis

Sociologists and anthropologists from Turkey and the US show how in contemporary Turkey, representations of the past have become metaphors through which individuals and groups define their cultural identity and political position. They explore how people challenge, reaffirm, or transform the concepts of history, nation, homeland, and Republic through acts of memory.
