It offers a new perspective on the cultural history of representing the decolonization of the Dutch East Indies, and maps out how a contested collective memory was shaped. Taking a transdisciplinary approach and applying several theoretical frames from literary studies, sociology, cultural anthropology and film theory, the author reveals how mediated memories contributed to a process of what he calls "unremembering." He analyses in detail a broad variety of sources, including novels, films, documentaries, radio interviews, memoires and historical studies, to reveal how five decades of representing and remembering decolonization fed into an unremembering by which some key notions were silenced or ignored. The author concludes that historians, or the historical guild, bear much responsibility for the unremembering of decolonization in Dutch collective memory. 410 0$aHeritage and Memory Studies 606 $aCollective memory$zNetherlands 606 $aDecolonization$zNetherlands 610 $aCollective Memory, Dutch East Indies, Decolonization, Postcolonialism. 615 0$aCollective memory 615 0$aDecolonization 676 $a959.8/022 686 $aNQ 9430$qSEPA$2rvk 700 $aDoolan$b Paul$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$00 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996449433903316 996 $aCollective Memory and the Dutch East Indies$92838650 997 $aUNISA
