Agency in Transnational Memory Politics

<p> The dynamics of transnational memory play a central role in modern politics from postsocialist efforts at transitional justice to the global legacies of colonialism. Yet the relatively young subfield of transnational memory studies remains underdeveloped and fractured across numerous disciplines even as nascent boundary-crossing theories on topics such as multi-vocal traveling or entangled remembrance suggest new ways of negotiating difficult political questions.
