This Handbook explores the latest cross-disciplinary research on the inter-relationship between memory studies, place and identity. "This Handbook is an absolute must for anyone interested in the complex relationship between memory, place and identity. The editors, coming from archaeology, ethnology, history and tourism studies, have assembled an impressive line-up of extremely competent authors who explore this relationship in multi-faceted and multi- as well as inter-disciplinary ways. Relating spatial and temporal identities to questions of memory proves to be extremely fruitful in understanding how people have attempted to make sense of the world around them in its historical evolution. It also underlines in intriguing ways that these processes of sense production were always contested and the subject of intense political conflicts. Thus the Handbook makes a valuable contribution to the re-politicisation of memory discourses in scholarship and in the wider public sphere." Stefan Berger, Professor of Social History and Director of the Institute for Social Movements, Ruhr-Universitaet Bochum, Germany "This is an innovative, exciting and timely collection which offers a compelling set of approaches, narratives and settings exploring the all-important matter of memory in relation to a range of places across the world. In an era of unprecedented eco-social turbulence/crisis, entangled with conflict, mobility and displacement, digital connectivity, transforming senses of individual and collective identities, and nostalgia based politics, this collection brings approaches across the social sciences and humanities into very telling conversations about the matter of emplaced memories, and key themes such as post-colonialism, embodiment, ritual and identity."
