Synopsis

This book focuses on managing competing memories of disputed territories in Eastern and Central Europe, the Caucasus and South Asia. Through an empirical, practice-oriented approach it explores memory work undertaken by institutions and social actors in different cultural and national settings. The book identifies examples of agonistic engagement with the memory of disputed territories that have the potential to build trust-based relationships between divided communities and overcome antagonistic separation through mutually beneficial joint enterprises. The volume also highlights blind spots and shortcomings of the agonistic approach by focusing on socio-political conditions that might hinder or prevent the broader dissemination of this memory mode.
