书目名称 | Partisan Histories | 副标题 | The Past in Contempo | 编辑 | Max Paul Friedman,Padraic Kenney | 视频video | | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | Partisan Histories is an introduction to the multiple uses of history in contemporary political debate and conflict. As communities reimagine themselves, a contest over defining legitimacy, identifying us and others, and jockeying for political control intersects with fights over history and memory. Here distinguished scholars examine how competing versions of national identity are legitimized through appeals to carefully constructed ‘pasts‘ both in democracies and in repressive regimes. The essays focus on the cases of Armenia, Chile, France, Germany, India and Pakistan, Israel and Palestine, Japan, Nigeria, and the United States to draw broader conclusions about the worldwide effect of traumatic memory, questions of punishment and restitution, and the instrumentalization of the past for political purposes. | 出版日期 | Book 20051st edition | 关键词 | conflict; democracy; history; Israel; national identity; political science; political science; politics; Wor | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-137-09150-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4039-6456-4 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-137-09150-5 | copyright | Palgrave Macmillan, a division of Nature America Inc. 2005 |
