Present Pasts - (Cultural Memory in the Present) by Andreas Huyssen (Paperback)

The book "Memory Politics in Globalization" is a thought-provoking analysis of how public memory affects history, forgetting, and selective memory in three cities that have faced significant social or political traumas - Berlin, Buenos Aires, and New York.

The author, Andreas Huyssen, examines the transformation of spatial and temporal experience through memory politics, highlighting the cultural, social, and aesthetic functions of material forms that have emerged in response to these traumas.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the power of memory in shaping our world today.
