Nested Nationalism is a study of the politics and practices of managing national minority identifications, rights, and communities in the Soviet Union and the personal and political consequences of ...such efforts. Titular nationalities that had republics named after them in the USSR were comparatively privileged within the boundaries of "their" republics, but they still often chafed both at Moscow's influence over republican affairs and at broader Russian hegemony across the Soviet Union. Meanwhile, members of nontitular communities frequently complained that nationalist republican leaders sought to build titular nations on the back of minority assimilation and erasure. Drawing on extensive archival and oral history research conducted in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Dagestan, Georgia, and Moscow, Krista A. Goff argues that Soviet nationality policies produced recursive, nested relationships between majority and minority nationalisms and national identifications in the USSR. Goff pays particular attention to how these asymmetries of power played out in minority communities, following them from Azerbaijan to Georgia, Dagestan, and Iran in pursuit of the national ideas, identifications, and histories that were layered across internal and international borders. What mechanisms supported cultural development and minority identifications in communities subjected to assimilationist politics? How did separatist movements coalesce among nontitular minority activists? And how does this historicization help us to understand the tenuous space occupied by minorities in nationalizing states across contemporary Eurasia? Ranging from the early days of Soviet power to post-Soviet ethnic conflicts, Nested Nationalism explains how Soviet-era experiences and policies continue to shape interethnic relationships and expectations today.
The Wealth of the Nation explores how Scotland has continued to assert its distinctive cultural difference despite the three-hundred-year union with England and the modern forces of globalisation. ...Dealing with Scotland since the eighteenth century, the study analyses how Scottish culture defined itself within the British Empire and how, in the late twentieth century, it recovered from the collapse of the Empire to rebuild the value of its cultural past. Through its focus on the role of memory in philosophy, literature and the visual arts, readers will gain understanding of the influence that modern Scottish writers and artists have had on contemporary Scottish nationalism. The book argues that political nationalism in modern Scotland is founded on a cultural revival that began in the 1950s and 60s but gained momentum from resistance to the outcome of the 1979 devolution referendum. That resistance, and the creative achievements which it generated, provoked a re-examination of the nation's cultural history, revealing a wealth previously denied or forgotten.
This essay replies to F. Gerald Downing’s critical response to my article ‘The Narratives of the Gospels and the Historical Jesus: Current Debates, Prior Debates and the Goal of Historical Jesus ...Research’ (Keith 2016). I focus on four matters: ‘authenticity’, ‘memory theory’, ‘tradition’ and the concept of going ‘behind’ the text.
This article presents research about a wide range of processions and crowd activities in the English industrial city of Sheffield c.1790-1910. It identifies a theoretical weakness in the historical ...scholarship where an emphasis on the role of procession and protest in symbolically ordering the built environment too often serves to represent it as intrinsically un-ordered and lacking in definition. The effect, it is argued, has been to present symbolic regimes, particularly those of local elites, as something imposed on rather than in any sense arising from quotidian urban performance, and artificially to isolate research into processional and other mass participation activities from the shared material context of a city's spatial culture. The notion of spatial culture is developed with reference to the work of Bill Hillier, Manuel De Landa, and Henri Lefebvre, among others, to propose an interpretative 'mapping' of the relationship between the evolving structure of Sheffield's built form and the development of its processional culture. The research raises the question of how far civic traditions often regarded as 'inventions' in fact arose from the material conditions of urban life itself, in that sense revealing the historicity of social memory.
This case study from historical archaeology builds upon two well-defined bodies of theory: collective memory, and the ontological turn. Memory studies mesh well with the ontological turn, as ...archaeologists begin to consider materials, people, and ideas as webs, networks, entanglements, or bundles. Memory and materiality studies need not be merely descriptive but can provide insights into the roles played by materials in social and political struggles. Although durable stones are bundled with original builders' views and ideas, stone buildings and features paradoxically are mutable and ripe for re-interpretation and contestation by future generations. In Castroville, Texas, a local heritage society is renovating a historic house to create a focal point for tourism. Alsatian immigrants constructed the house in the mid-nineteenth century, but subsequent generations significantly remodeled the house. The archaeological discovery of a blocked-in nineteenth-century fireplace behind a twentieth-century bathroom wall brings two versions of the past into stark juxtaposition. The stones become participants in the struggle between two descendant families over whose past will be celebrated and remembered and whose will be obliterated and forgotten.

Sosyal bilimlerin çalışma alanlarında giderek dikkat çeken ve disiplinler arası bir çalışma alanı olarak şekillenen toplumsal hafıza, siyasal yapılar tarafından beden, mekân, tarih ve dil ...politikalarıyla inşa edilmektedir. Geçmişle hesaplaşma ve geçmişe tutunma ikilemini içinde barındıran toplumsal hafıza, belirli bir ulus devlet politikasının muhatabı olan herkesin hafızasını karşılamak için kullanılmaktadır. İnceleme nesnesi insan olan sosyal bilimlerin her disiplini, insanı anlamak adına hafıza meselesine bir şekilde değinmek durumunda kalmıştır. Tıpkı bireysel hafızada olduğu gibi toplumsal hafızada da bir veriyi unutmak ya da hatırlamak için tekrarın önemi haizdir. Bu doğrultuda araştırmanın amacı, toplumsal hafızanın siyasal alan tarafından inşa sürecinin ders kitaplarına yansımasını irdelemektir. Bu amaçla araştırmanın yöntemi doküman incelemesi olarak tasarlanmış ve bu çalışmada ele aldığımız sosyal bilgiler/tarih ders kitapları Kutü’l Amare Zaferi örneği üzerinden analiz edilerek elde edilen veriler yorumlanmıştır. Araştırmanın sonuçları değerlendirildiğinde katılımcıların Kutü’l Amare zaferi ile ilgili öğrencilik yıllarından bir şey hatırlamadığı, ders kitaplarında böyle bir bilginin varlığından bihaber oldukları görülmektedir. Katılımcıların çoğu sokak afişlerinden, bir kısmı da televizyon, internet gibi kitle iletişim araçlarından Kutü’l Amare Zaferini öğrendiklerini vurgulamakta ve yine önemli bir katılımcı sayısı ders kitaplarında yer almasını önemli görmektedirler. Görüşmeye katılanların yarısından fazlası ise siyasi koşulların eğitime etkisi dolayısıyla ders kitaplarına yansıması olarak değerlendirmişlerdir.
The social memory, which is an increasingly interesting and interdisciplinary field of study in the fields of social sciences, is constructed by political structures by body, space, history and language policies. The social memory, which involves the reckoning and retention of the past, is used to meet the memory of everyone who is the subject of a certain nation-state policy. Each discipline of the social sciences, which is the object of investigation, had to address the issue of memory in a way to understand the human being. Just as in individual memory, repetition is important for forgetting or remembering data in social memory. In this direction, the aim of the study is to examine the reflection of social memory by the political field on the textbooks. For this purpose, the method of the research is designed as a document review and the social studies/ history textbooks we have discussed in this study were analyzed by analyzing the sample of Kut al Amare victory. When the results of the study were evaluated, it is seen that the participants did not remember anything about Kut al Amare victory during their student years and they were not aware of the existence of such information in the textbooks. Most of the participants emphasize that they have learned about Kut al Amare victory from the street posters and some of the mass media such as television and the internet and also most of them think that it is important to include the victory in the textbooks. More than half of the respondents evaluated the political conditions as a reflection on textbooks due to their impact on education.
Abstract Alzheimer's disease is characterized by deficits in social communication, associated with generalized apathy or agitation, as well as social memory. To assess social behaviors in 6-month-old ...male APPswe/PS1 bigenics relative to non-transgenic controls, the 3-chamber test was used, together with open-field and elevated plus-maze tests of exploration. APPswe/PS1 mice were less willing to engage in social interaction than wild-type, avoiding an unfamiliar stimulus mouse, probably not due to generalized apathy because in both tests of exploratory activity the mutants were hyperactive. This study reveals reduced “sociability” combined with hyperactivity in an APPswe/PS1 mouse model of Alzheimer dementia.
"Far right movements, parties, and governments are changing the language and logic of international order. Zero-sum geopolitics - from Trump to Brexit - and the rhetoric of putting the national ...interest 'first' are back, and along with them come a deep fascination with the values of patriarchy, masculinity, and strength. Putting these dramatic shifts in contemporary American and European foreign policy into wider historical and intellectual context, Geopolitical Amnesia explores the liberal crisis beneath the resurgence of far right ideas. Drawing on memory studies, it addresses the ways in which the new geopolitics intersects and interplays with an exhausted and amnesiatic liberalism. Scholars with expertise on national and regional ideological traditions look at contemporary memory wars - competing revisionist histories - from Washington to Warsaw, and from the Anglosphere to Southern, Western, and Eastern Europe. They address the changing conditions of memory and nostalgia and discuss how and why it matters that the new geopolitics takes place in an age of accelerated, fragmented, and digitalized global media. Timely and ambitious, this accessible collection reveals the far right ideas behind the return of geopolitics and the crisis of liberalism that paved its way."--
As Pontius Pilate nearly asked, What is history? This article draws upon memory and media studies to question the notion that we find history within the text of the Fourth Gospel. Rather than trying ...to identify and isolate history within John's Gospel, our discussion aims to recover how the Gospel works as a set of historical claims, joining with or competing against other historical claims within the social sphere of its author, redactor, and/or audience. After a précis of memory's and media's significance for our question (What is history?), we will localize these abstract issues by turning to the Johannine portrayal of John the Baptist and his testimony for Jesus. This approach respects the Fourth Gospel as a written text that developed and was compiled/redacted in the late first century without imposing a rigidly atemporal conception of Johannine theology onto John's claims about events six or seven decades earlier.
