Memory and Securitization in Contemporary Europe “The book is highly original in its analysis of the configurations of contemporary Europe. It is relevant for scholars and also policy makers and NGOs.” —Professor Melanie Sully Director, Go-Governance Institute, Vienna, Austria “Situated at the nexus of discourse analysis, visual politics, and security studies, Memory and Securitization in Contemporary Europe is a probing analysis of the power of geopolitical amnesia in a world obsessed with historical memory. With essays that span the continent, this accessible and timely volume dives into the complex and contested space that is Europe’s past.

Saunders Department of History, Politics, and Geography, Farmingdale State College, USA
