We are pleased announce the publication of “Regions of Memory”! This book is a scale of social and cultural memory that reaches above the national, yet remains narrower than the global or universal. The chapters of this volume analyze transnational constellations of memory across and between several geographical areas, exploring historical, political and cultural interactions between societies. Such a perspective enables a more diverse field of possible comparisons in memory studies, studying a variety of global memory regions in parallel. Moreover, it reveals lesser-known vectors and mechanisms of memory travel, such as across Cold War battle lines, across the Indian Ocean, or between Southeast Asia and western Europe.

The book was edited by Simon Lewis, Jeffrey K. Olick, Joanna Wawrzyniak and Małgorzata Pakier. Furthermore, chapters 1 and 6 are available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.
