Description

Theorizing Social Memories: Concepts and Contexts offers a deep look into how societies remember, make sense of, and imagine their collective pasts. As public debates move away from grand narratives toward smaller, contesting stories, this book examines the diversity of social remembering and the theoretical shifts occurring in the field. This critical anthology addresses the gaps within the contemporary theoretical landscape of memory studies. It looks at how fragmentary accounts reveal fault-lines in current academic thought and seeks to bridge these breaks. For students and scholars in sociology and anthropology, this text provides a necessary framework for understanding how collective memory is constructed and contested in the modern era. By exploring how societies invent and interpret their history, this Routledge Advances in Sociology volume serves as a vital resource for anyone studying the intersection of social identity and historical narrative. It provides the tools to navigate the complex terrain of how we perceive our shared past.
