Description

Places of Pain and Shame offers a comprehensive cross-cultural examination of heritage sites that commemorate painful and shameful moments in community and national history. This scholarly work by Routledge explores how government agencies, heritage professionals and communities approach the preservation, commemoration and remembrance of sites including massacre and genocide locations, prisoner of war memorials, civil and political prisons, and historical institutions such as leper colonies and lunatic asylums. The book addresses the complex ethical and practical challenges of conserving these difficult heritage sites, examining both active remembrance and deliberate forgetting. Essential reading for heritage professionals, museum curators, academics and anyone interested in how societies confront their difficult pasts through material culture and place-based commemoration.
