Memory in transatlantic relations: from the cold war to the global war on terror (1st)

This volume focuses on the uses of collective memory in transatlantic relations between the United States, and western and central European nations in the period from the Cold War to the present day.

Sitting at the intersection of international relations, history, memory studies and various 'area' studies, 'Memory in Transatlantic Relations' examines the role of memory in an international context, including the ways in which policy and decision makers utilize memory; the relationship between trauma, memory and international politics; the multiplicity of actors who shape memory; and the role of memory in the conflicts in post-Cold War Europe.
