Item description from seller

Paperback. Contents Part I: Memory Politics in the Russian European North Part II: Transborder Memory Politics: Russia and Norway Featuring contributions by: Darya Aspoy; Havard Baekken; Helge Blakkisrud; Stian Bones; Kristian Lundby Gjerde; Elena Kochetkova; Petia Mankova; Joakim Aalmen Markussen; Kari Aga Myklebost; Marianne Neerland Soleim; Artem Spirin Over the past two decades, memory practices related to the Great Patriotic War have assumed an increasingly prominent position in Russian politics and identity-building, both in the domestic sphere and in the realm of foreign policy. Existing scholarship on Russian memory politics tends to concentrate overwhelmingly on the role of the Kremlin, while regional dynamics have received less attention. This special issue explores the Kremlin-driven politics of war memories as they unfold in the northernmost parts of Norway and European Russia, two regions that share not only a border but also a long history of interaction. Across this border, we encounter two distinctly different social, cultural, and political contexts: on the one hand, Norway - a small, relatively homogenous, and stable welfare state; and on the other, Russia - a vast, complex, and increasingly authoritarian and neo-imperialist polity. By examining the construction and contestation of the past in a variety of regional and transborder settings, including museums, media, school curricula, libraries, and commemorative ceremonies, this issue explores the processes of negotiation, conflict, and adaptation among diverse mnemonic actors in the North. The study of memory politics in this context sheds light on broader transformations within Russian politics, which has grown progressively more authoritarian while still remaining dependent on regional and local implementation. The cases discussed here further demonstrate how memory politics in Russia have become increasingly securitized over the past decades. This special issue explores the Kremlin-driven politics of war memories as they unfold in the northernmost parts of Norway and European Russia, two regions that share not only a border but also a long history of interaction.
