The chapters in this book explore how the memory of the enslaved and slavers is shaped and displayed in the public space not only in the former slave societies but also in the regions that provided captives to the former American colonies and European metropoles. Through the analysis of exhibitions, museums, monuments, accounts, and public performances, the volume makes sense of the political stakes involved in the phenomenon of memorialization of slavery and the slave trade in the public sphere. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ana Lucia Araujo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415526922\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415526920\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/18\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 308\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.20w x 0.70d","brand":"Ana Lucia Araujo","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48136095793407,"sku":"9780415526920","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b67d22a8-edc4-45b2-b59c-cfa3bcbbcbe2.jpg?v=1770160481","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/politics-of-memory-ana-lucia-araujo-9780415526920","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
