Recenzii

'All the articles in the book...provide a lot of insights and understandings and will be a good starting point for both academics and students who want to begin research in this still fashionable field.' - Contemporary British History
'The power of the war's memory, or 'self' and 'other', to serve as an instrument to both shape identity and measure it, has more than justified the attention it receives in this appealing collection.' - French History
'...this volume provides a timely reminder...the essays do provide an effective snapshot of recent research into the myriad ways 'memory politics' worked in post-war Europe...' - European History Quarterly
