Recenzii
"In recent years, debates over historical statues and monuments have been central to the struggle of former colonial powers, and former colonies, to come to term with their past – or to disavow it. With a genuinely global scope, this timely and exciting collection of case-studies examine how memorials both conceal and reveal contested histories of colonial violence, which refuse to be peacefully consigned to the past."
Kim A. Wagner, University of London, UK
"The global approach utilized by Cynthia Prescott and Janne Lahti reinforces the relationality of violence, monuments, memory, and legacy across time and place. This volume makes visible those histories and peoples erased by colonial violence and later settler colonial monuments. Prescott and Lahti’s volume provides necessary context for current contestations over public space and memory. Monuments matter. This volume is a must-read."
Elise Boxer, University of South Dakota, USA
"This compelling collection offers a truly global perspective on the relationship between colonial violence and monumentality. Contributions by scholars and community advocates map the ways colonial and postcolonial monuments have celebrated, concealed, and embodied the violence of empire in North America, Australia, Africa, and Asia over the last two centuries. Always insistent on the specific histories of both monuments and the acts they commemorate, these essays go beyond simple binaries to trace the multiple, shifting actions and experiences of colonizers, settlers, postcolonial states, and Indigenous peoples through time."
