The Politics of Memory Laws

Russia, Ukraine and Beyond

This open access book explores the political utility and consequences of memory laws with a focus on how militant memory laws frame, underpin and generate international conflicts.

Proceeding from Russia’s ongoing aggression against Ukraine, this examination plots how memory wars have preceded, partially led to, and encouraged the outbreak of the war itself via Russian propaganda. It also offers a broader perspective looking at developments in neighbouring countries such as Poland and Hungary. Bringing together scholars with diverse perspectives, this book provides both analysis and conceptual reflection for scholars assessing the politics of memory laws.
