In the wake of such changes, new forms of social inclusion and exclusion appear that are justified through a reactivation of differences of race, class and gender. Against this backdrop, this collection investigates contemporary understandings of history and cultural memory. In doing so, the reader will join the leading European contributors of this title in examining how crisis and decline in contemporary Europe trigger a selective forgetting and remodelling of the past. Indeed, Austere Histories in European Societies breaks new paths in scholarship by synthesising and connecting current European debates on migration, racism and multiculturalism. In addition to this, the authors present debates on cultural memory and the place of the colonial legacy within an extensive comparative framework and across the boundaries of the humanities and social sciences. This book will appeal to scholars and students across the social sciences and humanities, particularly in European studies, memory studies, sociology, postcolonial studies, migration studies, European history, cultural policy, cultural heritage, economics and political theory. 410 0$aRoutledge advances in sociology. 606 $aMarginality, Social$zEurope 606 $aImmigrants$zEurope 606 $aMinorities$zEurope 606 $aSocial stratification$zEurope 606 $aCitizenship$zEurope 606 $aPostcolonialism$zEurope 607 $aEurope$xCultural policy 607 $aEurope$xSocial policy 607 $aEurope$xEconomic policy 607 $aEurope$xHistory 615 0$aMarginality, Social 615 0$aImmigrants 615 0$aMinorities 615 0$aSocial stratification 615 0$aCitizenship 615 0$aPostcolonialism 676 $a306.094 676 $a306.094 702 $aJonsson$b Stefan$f1961- 702 $aWille?n$b Julia 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910149384603321 996 $aAustere histories in European societies$92881352 997 $aUNINA
