Conflicted memorials and the need to look forward. The interplay between remembering and forgetting in Mostar and on the Kosovo Field
The Nordic Centre of Heritage Learning and Creativity, Sweden.ORCID iD: 0000-0001-9680-9127
2019 (English)In: Memorials in the Aftermath of Armed Conflict: From History to Heritage / [ed] Marie Louise Stig Sørensen; Dacia Viejo-Rose; Paola Filippucci, Cham: Palgrave Macmillan, 2019, p. 159-182Chapter in book (Refereed)
Abstract [en]

This chapter studies the interplay between remembering and forgetting in post-war contexts. Since memory has spatial dimensions and can be stimulated by visual clues, it is clear that memorials may play a highly important role within such processes. Fieldwork carried out in Mostar, Bosnia Herzegovina, and on the Kosovo Field between 2015 and 2016, in the aftermath of the ethno-religious wars that touched both these regions during the 1990s, helps to illuminate the negotiation. On the basis of the fieldwork carried out, this chapter aims to challenge routinely made assumptions about positive and negative valuations of remembering and forgetting.
