Re-presenting pasts: Sikh diasporic and digital memories of 1984.

▼ My dissertation is a study of digitally mediated, diasporic and intergenerational collective memories of the anti-Sikh violence of 1984. The violence unfolded in two separate but related events in June and November of that year. Drawing on semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions with Sikhs in North America, and content analysis of websites about 1984, I show that even though community members in India suffered the losses of 1984, the Sikh diaspora is finding ways to represent these previously marginalized experiences. Public discourse on 1984 is caught between dichotomous narratives. The first consists of dominant state and mass media representations, which justified the violence, dismissed it as spontaneous “riots,” and blamed and shamed the Sikh community for its own victimhood. The state and mass media told a distorted story of Sikhs as “outsiders” in a “Hindu nation state.” The second set of voices comes from the resistance struggle for Khalistan, which was a counternarrative to the state, a mostly territorial movement, advocating militancy and violence. I argue that Sikhs in the diaspora are disrupting polarized narratives of the state and counternarratives that emerged from within the community, re-presenting memories of 1984 in and through digital media to form “crevices” in dominant, static and rigid “walls” of representations and popular counternarratives. Crevices are multi-layered experiential narratives that are a work-in-progress, an ongoing process of dissension defying the fixity and rigidity of dominant narratives. An intergenerational cohort of Sikhs in the diaspora are doing “memory work,” deliberate and conscious public practices of searching for fragments of painful pasts and piecing them together to give cultural meaning and shape to broken traumatic experiences. My study addresses gaps in literature in two main ways: first, I examine heterogeneous voices within the Sikh community, narrated through more personalized, intimate and interactive medium of communication, digital media; and second, my dissertation is one of few studies examining a non-Western group’s construction and representation of trauma. I extend frameworks of collective memory and trauma to include Sikh-specific cultural apparatus in giving meaning to experiences of loss and suffering.

▼ ! Yuanmingyuan, more than a site, is an idea that has both historically and recently been associated with diverse ideologies and powerful group sentiments. In the 1980s, the construction of the Yuanmingyuan Ruins Park around the ruins of the early 18th century Qing imperial garden, the Yuanmingyuan, revived old associations and also created new ones related broadly to a project of nationalism in modern China. !
Collective memory has been a concept casually or indirectly invoked in several studies of the Yuanmingyuan Park, and it is an effective means of describing the fluctuating and multi-faceted discourse of Yuanmingyuan as a mental construct. Nevertheless, the application of
collective memory as a framework needs to be critically examined and refined. The complexity of producers as groups of people with varied motives, the multivocal representations they produce and the process of consumption undertaken by shifting collectives needs to be further elaborated both in terms of the
collective memory of Yuanmingyuan and the theoretical model of
collective memory itself. ! This paper combines concrete analysis of representations of Yuanmingyuan, especially the Yuanmingyuan Park constructed in the 1980s; scrutiny of historical data that indicates a shift in ideas related to Yuanmingyuan; and relevant theory in order to approach an understanding of the
collective memory of Yuanmingyuan-its evolution over time and how it has been related to material as well as mental constructs. This analysis of the chronological progression of the
collective memory of Yuanmingyuan also accounts for the spatial heterogeneity of the idea at any given time, or the multiple and often contradictory meanings tied up in the conception of Yuanmingyuan as a physical space. It addresses how certain ideologies have been deliberately associated with topographical space and material objects in order to embed symbolic significance aimed at constituting and reifying imagined social collectives. It also addresses the gaps between intended meanings, presented meanings and received meanings, and the complications of signification at a national level that the Yuanmingyuan exposes. ! The
collective memory of the Yuanmingyuan is approached as an ever- changing discourse attached to multiple meanings in order, on the one hand, to explore how similar ideas about specific historical events formed and functioned to sustain a sense of
collective identity in modern China, and, more broadly, to elaborate upon the phenomenon of
collective memory itself.

▼ When my grandmother, Emily Pearl Dorsey, passed away I
thought life would never be the same.I was right. After years of
investigating my memories, and recalling them through my artwork
Ihave come to realize the true beauty of memories and shared
experiences. It’s Teatime celebratesthe shared histories of unique
objects, stories, skills, and most importantly, simply spending
timetogether. Our shared precious moments only stand the test of
time by being passed on to eachother. Many years from now, all that
will remain of our time together is the story, and maybesome papers
stained with tea from a party long ago.It’s Teatime compares how
memories connect people through both physical and virtual
artexperiences. My thesis show is an interactive art installation
that explores
collective memory inactive engagement versus virtual
connectedness during tea parties, and the impermanence ofmemories
through the deterioration of tea bags. I am creating two
contrasting cycles of remembrance—one where people participate in a
tea party then metaphorically leave their mark bystaining the walls
with teabags after the tea party in the museum; the other where
people watchingthe tea party live on the Internet can leave
comments on a live web feed as their way of marking our time
together. The physical stain of our existence contrasts the online
comments thatexist only in the virtual world. These physical acts
then become memories completing the cyclewith only a trace of the
event left by the tea stains and comments.Some of the conversations
already occurring in the art world about
collective memory,food,
and physical versus virtual existence include Jennifer Rubell’s
edible installations andRirkrit Tiravanija’s curry feeding
performances. They have all influenced this installation. I wasalso
inspired by performance artist Marina Abramovic’s utilization of
live internet feeds to contradictthe intimacy of spending physical
time together in “The Artist Is Present” (Anelli, "Mo-MA.org |

▼ Nowadays the media, as cultural phenomena of globalization in the late period of capitalism, have disseminated widely in mass communication with the visual image of past, present and future appear simultaneously, which caused a erasure of history and consequently a logic of culture in collapse flat that lack of historical perspective. Since the alternative way of life, citizens are far less interested in public affairs and less care about hometown history. Government developments culture localization to find local arts and culture assets. Working local culture preserves traditional rituals and folklore activities. It is point for us to develop the local culture, to find the past arts and heritages, to save the traditional rituals and folk activities, and to preserve local literary and historical work.
But these were the involvement from top to down by the Stateâs apparatus, which results in losing the identity of community and construction of local culture. When the residentsâ capacity of mobility is insufficient and unwilling to participate the public affairs, also lacking of
collective memory of community history, by that it cause serious difficulties of the transform to adequate community consciousness. Therefore, we are questioning: What it means the civil
memory? How to construct and preserve it? Because of the planning of local culture archives with ordinary life circle have to offer the residents in promoting the community renaissance, integrating the region cultural resources with tangible and intangible proliferation. Then, we ask, what is the significance of municipal museum of history in districts? How to save the
collective history and cultural heritage? What should the government implement the policy of museum processing? In case of Kaohsiung Museum of History (KMH), what is the key statement of and how to achieve the mission of culture sedimentation and civil
memory, are the current problems.
The Purpose of my study is to understand what and how to preserving citizen
memory, and to prove what is the ultimate value of civil recollection in physical and mental items. Applying the qualitative research methods at the case of KMH, the study has to explore the
collective constituting and identity of citizen
memory. Literal data collecting, text interpreting, people interview, and direct observation in field, are need. Focusing on citizen memories, urban history, and museum management, are three essential aspects for our study. The psychological referent of
memory is derivate from history of the individual and family then extended to the
collective memories of city, hence of, the
collective constitution of city history is based on the living existence of each citizen.
In conclusion, KMH should be mainly appreciated to a whole historical view of Kaohsiung as well as of Taiwan in complement. Owing to constructing an adequate urban history, it is radically postulated to base at ordinary peopleâs lives with supplementation of and contrast to the other culture and arts. For the purpose of KMH to fulfill with…

Duncan, ChairScholars generally agree that nationalism first emerged in the late eighteenth century, andthat collective memories shared by members of a society contributed to the formation of modernnationalism. It does not mean, however, that collective memories did not exist before the modernperiod. In contrast to some modernist arguments, long before modern nationalism appeared inKorea, there was distinct evidence of the existence of certain collective memories among literati.Literati's memories of Koguryo throughout the pre-modern period and the influence of Koguryomemories on the formation of Korean nationalism after the late nineteenth century stronglyindicate that collective memory should not be tied to the notion of modern nationalism.It is apparent that since as early as the tenth century, Koryo literati considered Koguryo apart of Korean history, and their recognition of Koguryo appeared in political, cultural, andethnic perspectives. The dynastic change from Koryo to Choson in 1392 did not cast doubt onthe literati's affirmation of Koguryo's position in Korean heritage, and elevated the status ofConfucianism in Choson, even contributing to consolidation of Koguryo memories among theliterati due to Koguryo's connection to the Kija tradition. Although memories of this ancientkingdom were affected by the political situation of the time, especially during the early years ofthe Choson-Ming relationship, Koguryo's status in Korean history was not questioned, and it stillremained historically viable after the notion of the so-called "last bastion" of Confuciancivilization emerged following the Ming's collapse.Unquestionably, it was since the late nineteenth century when Koguryo memories werearguably embedded in the collective memory of Koreans, as Korean nationalists ardently tried totake advantage of Koguryo memories for their independence movements. In this period,Koguryo memories, which had survived since the tenth century, fit well into the model ofcollective memory as presented by Maurice Halbwachs. Additionally, its projection in the lastfew decades, including in the relationship between North and South Korea, as well as Korea andChina regarding the ownership of Koguryo history, demonstrates how the collective memory ofKoguryo has been maintained and still operates vigorously today.

▼ Intergenerational transmission of memory is a process
by which biographical knowledge contributes to the construction of
collective memory (a representation of a shared past). The purpose
of the present research project was to investigate the mnemonic
properties implicated in the intergenerational transmission of
historical and non-historical events from a parent’s life. This was
accomplished in a series of three studies. In Study 1, the
intergenerational transmission of life stories in two groups of
young adults was investigated: a Conflict group and a Non-Conflict
group. Only those in the Conflict group had parents who had lived
through violent political upheaval. All participants recalled and
dated ten important events from a parent’s life. There were three
main findings. First, both groups produced sets of events that
displayed a reminiscence bump. Second, the majority of the events
in both groups were transitions, which were perceived to have
exerted significant psychological and material impact on a parent’s
life. Third, in the Conflict group, 25% of recalled events were
conflict-related. This indicates that historical conflict knowledge
is passed from one generation to the next and that it is understood
to have had a personally-relevant, life-altering effect. Moreover,
the findings suggest that transitional impact and perceived
importance help determine which events will be remembered from a
parent’s life. Study 2 served to replicate and extend the findings
of Study 1. The primary interests of the second study were
two-fold: (1.) to examine characteristics of important historical
and non-historical events from a parent’s life, and (2.) to better
understand their importance for the next generation. This was
accomplished by running the same 3-Phase paradigm as in Study 1
with three groups of young adults, children of: refugees, voluntary
immigrants, and Canadians. The scale ratings in Phase 3, however,
were extended. There were several findings. Historic events from a
parent’s life were greater in their transitional impact on the
parent’s life and perceived self-relevance for the subsequent
generation than were non-historic events. Both sets of events
demonstrated a positivity bias and were fairly frequently
rehearsed. Functionally, important parent-events served self,
directive, and social functions for the subsequent generation.
Uniquely, the most important functions of historical events were to
better understand one’s parent and oneself. Taken together, these
findings provide insight into the properties of important
historical and non-historical events that are transmitted across
generations, as well as their functions for future generations. In
Study 3, the intergenerational transmission of historical conflict
knowledge and xenophobia via a parent’s life story was examined in
post-war Croatians. Two groups of young adults were compared from:
(1.) Eastern Croatia (extensively affected by the war) and (2.)
Western Croatia (affected relatively less by the war). The
methodology was the same as the one used in…

▼ Although trees are not the first thing that comes to mind when thinking of the Israel/Palestine conflict, the aim of this thesis is to demonstrate that specific trees play a significant and active role in the conflict and in the construction of Israeli and Palestinian
collective memories and identities. Beyond providing mere metaphoric expressions of Israeli and Palestinian rootedness, trees give material form to claims to the contested land of Israel/Palestine. Thus, the Israel/Palestine conflict is not merely a struggle over land, but also a struggle conducted and articulated through the land and through trees more specifically, as both Israelis and Palestinians invest
memory in “their” trees, the pine tree and the olive tree respectively.

▼ Johannesburg’s historic, iconic gold mine tailings once formed a topographic trail marking the 120km gold reef from which the city originated. The first tailing formations began in the late 1890s and as the City expanded around them, they became a marker of opulence, oppression and development. These controversial mounds represent the best and worst of Johannesburg’s history. They are its reason for being, but also a physical barrier that reinforced the apartheid regime. Since the 1970s Johannesburg’s tailings have been under a process of reclamation for latent minerals. This has the additional benefit of removing a toxic, radioactive source of pollution, and freeing up valuable land for development through the City. The complete removal of these mounds is imminent, and despite certain preservation efforts there are no plans in place to preserve the memory of these iconic, man-made landforms. To reveal their cultural significance, and establish an appropriate solution for memorialization, this thesis proposes to expand traditional assessment methodologies by including the representation of the mine tailings in art and literature. The analysis of the art and literature produced over the life span of this landscape provides a way for talking about and understanding this negative heritage. This method shifts assessment from quantitative to qualitative by thematizing collective associations and revealing the diverse, often conflicting overarching narratives that the mine tailings embody. Principal narratives extracted from the art and literature of Johannesburg center around the environment, racial relations, and City experience, and reveal the mine tailings to be the enabling element of a site-specific culture and identity. These narratives underpin the final recommendations for memorialization of the sites of former mine tailings, including programing, zoning and design ideas.

▼ Ma recherche se situe à la croisée d'un ensemble de questions complexes que sont la genèse et les pratiques de la mémoire collective, les lieux en tant que chargés de significations sociales et les espaces en tant que cadres sociaux de la mémoire (M Halbwachs). Il s'agit des motivations individuelles partagées, à travers lesquelles la mémoire collective se maintient et trouve des traductions diverses, épousant chaque fois des situations nouvelles, là où les membres du collectif se trouvent réunis. Une dynamique dans laquelle l'espace, la religion et même la langue ne seront que des outils, mobilisés pour construire et puis maintenir cette mémoire. Ce faisant, je me rattache à une littérature en expansion qui cherche à montrer l'extrême importance, pour la compréhension de cette mémoire collective, de facteurs comme le lieu, le lien social et l'expérience narrative (Blokland, 2001 ). C'est avec des immigrés originaires de la même ville algérienne, située à 400 km au sud d'Alger, qui se sont regroupés en partie dans la banlieue sud de Lyon et d'autres dans la ville d'Alger que j'entreprendrai mon analyse. Depuis le début du XX ème siècle, plusieurs générations d' immigrés se sont succédé à Lyon comme à Alger, marquant le paysage urbain, social et même politique des lieux de leurs implantations. Sans apparente organisation, ni protocole laissé par des ancêtres dictant leurs conduites, les uns comme les autres ont montré une ubiquité socio-spatiale qui raisonne fortement avec la ville d'origine. Tout au long de la recherche, j'étais confronté à une trame de pratiques de mémoire qui consistait à faire la navette entre le présent et le passé, l' individuel et le collectif.
My research is at the cross of a set of complex issues that are the genesis and the practices of the collective memory, the places charged of social signification, and the spaces being social frames of the memory (M Halbwachs). It is a question of shared individual motivations, through which the collective memory is maintained and finds different translations,married up every time to a new situation, where the members of the collective are gathered. A dynamic where the space,the religion and even the language will be only tools, mobilized to build and keep the memory alive. Thus, I use an expanding literature seeking to show the extreme importance of understanding this collective memory, of factors such as the location, the social link and the narrative experience (Blokland, 2001; Mistral, 2003).The researchis based upon immigrants from the same algerian hometown, located about 400 km from the capital Algiers (south of Algiers), who gathered mainly in the suburbs south of Lyon and others in Algiers. Since the beginning of the20th century, several generations of immigrants have corne successively to Lyon and Algiers, leaving its mark on the urban, social and even political landscape of their location. Without any apparent organization, or any protocol bequeathed by their ancestors, all of them have shown a socio-spatial ubiquity that goes strongly with…

▼ When persons tell ghost stories, they imagine the past. Ghost stories are complete when they include both an account of paranormal happenings and an account of previous, this-worldly events that ghost-storytellers can use to explain those happenings. But ghost-storytelling differs from other activities in which persons imagine the past (like history education, monumentation, and museum-work). For one, there are no barriers to ghost-storytelling. For two, ghost-storytellers do not set out to imagine the past. They do so because the past is useful for their storytelling purposes. Hence, ghost-storytelling gives a “bottom up” view of the past; it shows what ordinary persons, as part of their unselfconscious assumptions about social life, think the past was like.
I explore what that “bottom up” view of the past looks like in Pennsylvania. I ask who it includes. The first chapter maps out the kinds of persons—both in terms of demographic attributes and of social roles—Pennsylvania’s ghost-storytellers say haunt places. I ask when the past occurred. In the second chapter, I outline the historical setting of Pennsylvania’s ghost stories and how ghost-storytellers indicate what those settings are. I ask what kinds of events ghost-storytellers expect it to include. Ghost-storytellers assume some happenings should create ghosts. I address those in the last chapter.
Data for this project come from four sources: twenty ethnographic interviews, three commercial ghost tours (all in Gettysburg, PA), HauntedPlaces.org (an online, user-generated archive of hauntings), and a series of books by an amateur folklorist (the Pennsylvania Fireside Tales).

▼ Recent decades have seen exceptional growth in research investigating the social, political, and cultural lives of Jews in Canada, and for good reason. The Jewish experience in Canada is one that is often characterized as achieving the goals of multiculturalism, that is, retaining a rich and meaningful ethnic and cultural identity while integrating into the political and economic mainstream. Yet, absent from much of the work done on Jewish life in Canada is research into how Jews make sense of their Jewishness in a multicultural context. In this dissertation, I examine the group-making projects of Jews in Toronto by analyzing how
collective memory informs what it means to be Jewish and how it is mobilized in the production and maintenance of ethnic boundaries. This dissertation is comprised of three interrelated studies that explore significant aspects of contemporary Jewish life in Canada, namely organizational participation, residential patterns, and the boundaries of Jewish otherness. Data come from qualitative interviews with Jews living in Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area who approximate the diversity of Toronto’s Jewish population and identify with a range of Jewish denominations, including no affiliation at all, and express their commitment to Jewish principles and practices in various ways. In the first study, I consider overnight Jewish summer camps as an important site for the production of ethnic boundaries in the Jewish community and explore the boundary work of camp participants. In the second study, I examine Jewish residential patterns in Toronto and identify four
collective memory schemas which serve as prominent scripts that shape the Jewish residential landscape in Toronto. In the third study, I attend directly to the issue of Jewish otherness and examine how a fragmented
collective memory around the Holocaust and State of Israel delineate boundaries of inclusion and separateness.

▼ As the twentieth century unfolded, American writers, critics, and boosters presented a narrative of the arid Southwest as an exotic place blessed with a romantic history that could inspire, captivate and renew the many new white citizens flocking to rapidly growing cities. The history of Spanish colonialism in the area became a precious and exclusive cultural and economic resource. This dissertation tells the story of the commemoration of the Spanish past from 1848 to 1940 in three Spanish towns that grew into prominent American cities: Tucson, Arizona; Albuquerque, New Mexico; and San Antonio, Texas. In chapters centered on space, historic preservation, Mexican folk ritual, and pageants, this work examines the stories told about the Spanish past in these cities and reveals how people of differing classes and ethnicities gave meaning to the places they lived and to the process of American annexation of the region. That meaning shaped individual and social identities as well as the flow of power between them.

▼ People strive to authentically express themselves, but few face this struggle, as contemporary Germans and Jews do, against the ever-present past of the Holocaust. In summer 2010, controversy erupted over “Dancing Auschwitz,” a YouTube video of a Jewish family dancing at various Holocaust remembrance sites. This novel joyful expression defied the often lugubrious traditional narrative of remembrance. Some feared it trivialized one of the world’s greatest tragedies and undermined the cultural awareness sparked by more traditional remembrances. The video, part of a triptych by a Jewish Australian artist and her Holocaust survivor father, raised questions of narrative authority and of the social media generation’s capacity to sustain Holocaust remembrance. More importantly it provides an opportunity to examine remembrance in terms of contemporary identity using social media. In order to explore how people make meaning online, particularly by socially constructing remembrance and
collective identities, the study looks at a single iteration of the “Dancing Auschwitz” triptych subsequent to the original January 2010 post. Using an interpretive discourse analysis, the author analyzed 2,121 comments across the four YouTube pages. Despite some concerns for respecting historical identities, people ultimately construct and evaluate remembrance through its relationship to and/or representation of contemporary identities. Traditional remembrance is passive and overly reliant on well-worn narratives that impede agency and infringe on the self-determination of identity construction for Opfer and Täter descendents. Germans in particular respond in one of two unhealthy ways to guilt and shame of their
collective identity: pushing those emotions to excess or resisting them vigorously, thus stoking resentment. The inheritors of the Opfer and Täter identities implemented three forms of remediation: role switching, redefinition, and disassociation. The author concludes that /Virtual memorials can enhance the remembrance experience by cultivating fluid, interactive and creative spaces that encourage high degrees of participation, collaboration and self-expression. Thus, they can open new avenues of communication and expression that allow participants, especially Germans and Jews, to remediate their identities. Despite the obstacles (e.g. destructive identity forces, commercial culture, and temporalities of social media trends), technology ultimately aids humanity’s deep-seated desire to remember.

▼ Recent sociological research shows enduring impacts of historical patterns of lynching between 1882 and 1930 in the southern U.S. on a variety of modern societal outcomes. In particular, Messner, Baller, and Zevenbergen (2005) find that lynching is associated with contemporary white-on-black homicide. While they link violence to lynching, the mechanisms responsible for this relationship remain obscure. In this paper I define and estimate mediating institutional- and population-based mechanisms that transmit a
collective memory of racial domination consistent with lynching that affect modern white-on-black homicide in the South. These mechanisms include: a measure of white-flight segregationist academies, two variables for the level of political support for the segregationist U.S. Presidential candidates, Strom Thurmond and George Wallace, and measures county net-migration rates between 1950 and 1980. Analyses reveal that the positive and significant association between lynching and white-on-black homicide is attenuated and becomes non-significant with the inclusion of all of the mechanisms. I interpret these results to suggest that the racist cultural schema manifested through lynching was transferred to intervening institutions and upheld by population dynamics that influence contemporary white-on-black homicide. These findings have implications for the role of
collective memory in explaining temporally distant events and interpersonal racial conflict.

▼ This paper explores the
collective memory of the neoliberalisation of New Zealand and drastic structural adjustments beginning in 1984 with the election of New Zealand’s Fourth Labour government. Through a cultural sociological analysis of narrative, collected through interviews with both community and voluntary and trade union representatives, use of a cultural sociological understanding of thick description and maximal interpretation reveals how seemingly personal accounts and evaluations take on
collective significance. In tracing a path from a
collective need for change in New Zealand, to a realisation of the impact of structural adjustment and the collapse of New Zealand’s Labour tradition, this research concludes that the
collective memory of this time in New Zealand’s recent history is an ongoing and culturally complex negotiation of
collective meaning-making and interpretation. Through an understanding of the
collective memory of those who were, and continue to be deeply affected by this period in history, we can begin to understand both the
collective impact of neoliberalisation, and the ongoing repair-work needed in New Zealand’s Labour Party, and the Left more broadly.

▼ [ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Remind Me Again What Happened is a novel told through three characters' perspectives, one of whom suffers from
memory loss. By exploring the individual memories that make up a
collective history, my novel investigates the ways in which
memory is narrated, archived, and validated. Remind Me Again What Happened is narrated in the first person by three characters - Claire, a journalist who has recently lost pieces of her
memory after contracting Japanese Encephalitis while on assignment, Charlie, her estranged husband, an editor at a small town newspaper in Vermont, and their best friend, Rachel, who is harboring injuries from the time they all lived together. Claire's illness and subsequent
memory loss trigger a variety of responses in every character, each of whom narrates their shared history in order to best justify his/her past behaviors and present resentments. Border Crossings: Contemporary Transnational Literature Across Media and Genre, I elucidates the formal strategies that contemporary transnational novelists employ in order to represent the flows of people, information, and policies across local and globalized spaces. Exploring the intersections of photography, journalism, archival documents, activism, and fiction, the dissertation argues that transnational literature not only redefines traditional theories of the novel, but also creates new modes for approaching historical narrative, theories of citizenship, and definitions of national and world literatures.

▼ This paper examines the role of the national song festivals in the Estonian independence movement during the years 1987-1991. Drawing from theory on social movements,
collective action, nationalism, identity formation,
collective memory, musicology, and festival studies, I argue that the song festivals created the atmosphere of mass confidence, euphoria, safety, and solidarity that propelled the Estonian people to demand independence from the Soviet Union. I take a cognitive, individual-based perspective of the political events to emphasize the significance of micro-level explanation of political protest and participation. This research was informed by qualitative interviews with native Estonians and contemporary publications of
The Current Digest of the Soviet Press. Analysis of the song festivals in the context of theory on nation-building and
collective action, supplemented by qualitative materials, suggests that the festivals played a much larger role in the movement than most of the literature acknowledges. My findings reinforce the need for cognitive, individual-level research to explain processes of political mobilization.

▼ In considering the Israel-Palestine conflict, focus has remained on conventional major issues: borders, settlements, Jerusalem, Palestinian refugee rights and water. Should there be one binational state, or two states for two peoples? Yet this is a conflict that is sustained by factors more profound than the dispute over limited resources or competing nationalisms. The parties' narratives, continually rehearsed, speak of a cataclysmic event or chain of events, a collective trauma, which has created such deep suffering and disruption that the rehearsers remain 'frozen' amid the overarching context of political violence. This study offers a critical analysis of the concept of collective trauma together with the role of commemorative practices, including core contemporary canonical days of memory, and asks to what extent they may hinder progress in the resolution of an intractable conflict, such as the Israel/Palestine conflict. Without addressing the powerful traumatic current that underpins a chronic conflict, no amount of top-down formal peace-making is likely to be sustainable.

▼ Perforations is a personal, experimental film that explores the residue and layers of memory through the emotional landscape of the artist’s entrance into middle age. The project navigates the ephemeral nature of memory, loss, absence, frailty, complexity and — ultimately — renewal in life through the interconnections and legacies of three generations. The thesis examines the way in which specific absences in history (women, class and collective memory) and the recounting of family history (through home movies, reconstruction of personal memory and the cycles of life, death and the landscape) contribute to the underlying basis of the film.

▼ This essay examines the concept of memory through a literature study of articles in three prominent archival journals. The aim of the study is to investigate if, and in that case how, the concept of memory is made visible in relation to archives as an institution and collection in three archival journals. The three archival journals that are under examination are Archival Science, American Archivist and Archivaria, with articles published between the years of 2013 to 2020. My study follows the previous research of Trond Jacobsen, Ricardo L. Punzalan and Margaret L. Hedstrom in the 2013 article Invoking ‘‘collective memory’’: mapping the emergence of a concept in archival science. My essay examines the seven following years; 2013-2020. This essay aims to provide a broader view of memory in archival science as it focuses on the concept of memory instead of “collective memory”. Three themes are found and examined; memory and identity, remembering and forgetting, and the archivist’s role in the establishment of memory. Assmann (2006; 2011) uses four different memory formations to illustrate the complexity of the concept. Jimerson (2009) also gives the study a theoretical framework by explaining the power structure and the relationship between the archivist and the concept of memory. The results show that the concept of memory is complex and that there are multiple definitions and understandings of memory. To use a universal definition of the concept of memory is problematic because of it’s multiple understandings. This thesis agrees with the articles examined in that we need interdisciplinary views on how the concept of memory is made visible in relation to archives as an institution and collection, and that archivists need broader tools of how to understand and problematize the concept of memory.

▼ Theoretical thesis.
Chapter 1. Introduction : collaboration and prospective memory – Chapter 2.Collaborative prospective memory in strangers and couples – Chapter 3. Successful and unsuccessful collaborative processes in strangers and couples performing prospective memory tasks – Chapter 4. Group-level strategies help collaborative groups perform better on prospective memory tasks – Chapter 5. Costs and benefits of collaboration with an intimate partner for prospective memory in acquired brain injury – Chapter 6. Discussion and synthesis – Appendix.
In this thesis, I examined the effects of collaboration on prospective memory (PM) performance – remembering together to perform future intentions. Given the ubiquitous social nature of our daily lives, there has been a long tradition of examining the effects of collaboration on remembering the past. This field of research has shown that collaborating with others is not always beneficial; when collaborating, individuals typically do not perform to their potential, but instead demonstrate an effect known as collaborative inhibition. However, recent research has shown that certain groups –particularly intimate groups who use certain communication strategies – collaborate more effectively. This is consistent with transactive memory theory, which predicts that intimate groups, through communication, develop an efficient shared memory system over time.
To date, little research has investigated the effect of collaborating with others on PM. Therefore, across a series of four chapters and five studies, I systematically examined the effects of collaboration on PM in groups that varied in intimacy and PM ability. I examined collaborative PM in strangers, intimate couples, and couples where one partner had an acquired brain injury. I used a well-established laboratory PM measure – Virtual Week – in order to achieve experimental control with a task designed to simulate PM in daily life. Using Virtual Week, I was also able to test whether collaboration differentially affected tasks of varying difficulty. I also focused on individual differences within collaborating couples and examined communication processes during collaborative PM to determine what differentiates more successful, from less successful collaborators. Using findings from this qualitative analysis, I tested whether we can instruct groups to use strategies to improve collaborative PM performance, and whether these are better implemented on a group or an individual level. Overall, I aimed to bring together two fields of research and extend collaborative recall literature into the PM domain.

▼ En interrogeant l’efficacité performative des « mots » comme composante essentielle des actes de langage, la thèse s’intéresse aux récits médiatiques qui concourent à la construction de figures héroïques qui participent au fondement discursif du lien social. À partir du parcours de S. Hessel comme figure tutélaire et du succès du livret Indignez-vous !, nous étudions la trajectoire publique du héros-résistant, les débats et les scènes médiatiques construits autour de sa figure. L’approche théorique et les méthodologies pluridisciplinaires empruntent à la sociologie et à la sémiotique qui s’interrogent sur la reproduction du lien social par la préfiguration, la configuration et la reconfiguration opérées par un récit. La considération philosophique et le regard en science politique convoquent l’analyse des concepts de dignité et ses représentations dans la mobilisation collective. Selon une approche en INFOCOM, nous questionnons la manière dont les médias traitent de la figure particulière de S. Hessel en lien avec le mouvement Les Indignés. La thèse démontre que le langage joue un rôle fondamental dans la construction de la représentation du social. Que le langage, du fait des « mémoires » qu’il véhicule, construit du lien social et donne du sens à la société. Nous établissons que le discours des médias est une passerelle entre le monde politique institutionnel et les mouvements sociaux qui incorporent les mots des médias dans une reprise incessante de figures et de légendes collectives qui circulent dans l'espace public. La thèse pose les bases d’une problématisation du rapport entre les discours des médias et les répertoires des discours de mobilisation collective.
By questioning the performative effectiveness of "words" as an essential component of speech acts, this thesis focuses on the media narratives that contribute to the construction of heroic figures, which participate in the discursive foundation of the social bond. From S. Hessel's journey as a tutelary figure and the success of the Indignez-vous! booklet, we study the public trajectory of the former resistance hero, in connection with stories, debates and media scenes that have been built and deployed around himself. The theoretical approach and multidisciplinary methodologies borrowed from sociology and semiotics, which question the reproduction of the social bond by prefiguring, configuring and reconfiguring a story. The philosophical consideration and the viewpoint in political science allow us to convene the analysis of the concepts of dignity and its representations in struggles of collective mobilization. Finally, according to an approach in information and communication sciences, we question how the media deal with the particular figure of S. Hessel in connection with the movement “Les Indignés”. This thesis demonstrates that language plays role in the construction of the representation of society. That language, because of the "memories" it conveys, builds social bonds and gives meaning to the members of a society. We establish that the media…

▼ A key question in collective memory research is how such memories are created and shared over time. This study consisted of a qualitative content analysis of documentary artifacts to determine whether there is a collective memory of the 1953 Short Creek Raid and, if so, how it developed and contributes to an ongoing sense of identity for some Fundamentalist Mormons. Documents were divided into three separate time periods. These documents included media interviews, personal essays, a commemorative calendar, speeches, religious sermons, a school curriculum and a bestselling book written by a former polygamous wife. Each document was analyzed using a protocol sheet with an initial set of categories, such as “divine intervention,” “heroes” and “us versus them.” The study found the 1953 Short Creek Raid is the basis for a collective memory. That memory was solidified during a “myth-making” period and is reinforced through family, community, school and church activities to perpetuate a common group identity among some present-day Fundamentalist Mormons still living in or with ties to the Short Creek area. This analysis has policy implications for public officials, social workers and others attempting to understand the present mindset, attitudes, actions and beliefs of many Fundamentalists Mormons, particularly those belonging to The Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. This analysis also provides a context for considering implications of internal and external threats to that collective memory.
