🔹 memory about events connecting societies (places, rituals, holidays)
🔹 trauma, repression, denial and forgetting (genocides, colonial violence, crimes)
🔹 politics of memory (memory as a tool of conflict; who decides what we remember; politics of historical memory)
🔹 mechanisms of memory and oblivion (commemoration and omission)
🔹 founding myths (legends justifying the existence of communities, mythologization of figures and processes)
🔹 popular culture and collective memory (Schindler’s List, Call of Duty: WW2, Troy)
🔹 difficult memory (the breakup of Yugoslavia, Middle East)
🔹 culture of memory (symbolism – flags, gestures, colours)
🔹 collective memory in historical education (museums, monuments, intangible historical/cultural heritage)
