The range of conceptual and empirical material offered is both novel and rich, and specialists and students alike will benefit greatly from its scholarship.' - Professor David Campbell, Durham University, UK</p> <p>'The contributors to Memory, Trauma and World Politics present exciting, innovative work by introducing concepts of social and cultural trauma into the study of national and transnational politics.
