Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

The novelty of the subject, distinctive methodological approach, engaging voice, and sophisticated analysis makes Terrain of Memory a worthwhile selection for public history classes seeking to model how to understand both past and present meanings of monuments and memorials, though the more analyti-cal sections may be more appropriate for advanced rather than introductory. -- Gail Dubrow * The Public Historian, Vol 34, No 4 * Terrain of Memory is a powerful contribution to cultural studies and memory work...employing an approach that scrutinizes with exacting honesty her moments of crisis, blockages, and breakthroughs, McAllister unfolds a scholarly activist praxis that is ethical, inventive, inimitable, and suffused with dramatic emotional struggle. -- Glenn Deer * University of Toronto Quarterly, Vol 81, No 3 *

Reseña del editor:

Terrain of Memory will appeal to those interested in Japanese Canadian internment camps and the history of racial cleansing in modern nation states as well as those wanting a deeper understanding of the power of collective memory.
