Austere Histories in European Societies: Social Exclusion and the Contest of Colonial Memories - Routledge Advances in Sociology
This book examines how political and economic crises in the present trigger a selective forgetting and remodelling of the past. Leading European scholars intervene in debates on migration, multiculturalism and postcoloniality, showing how new regimes of historiography and memory culture reflect emerging patterns of discrimination and social segmentation in today’s European societies.
