"Questions about the relationship between historical research and contemporary social
and practical problems have posed a challenge to generations of historians, as well
as to philosophers and theorists of history. In recent years, views regarding the
isolation of academic history from real-world issues and affairs have come under increasing
criticism. The contributions to this volume all focus on history's role in the world
today and on the possibilities for, and limits to, engagement resulting from disciplinary
practices and conventions. The authors undertake their assessment of history's relevance
in different ways, combining case studies of political clashes, public debates, and
practices of commemoration with sophisticated theoretical discussions of identity
construction, the material manifestations of power, and the relationship between historicizing
and expectations concerning future actions. These studies highlight the difficulty
of distinguishing between history and politics, and between disciplinary accounts
and activism, and contribute significantly towards an improved understanding of our
relationship with the past. This book was originally published as a special issue
of Rethinking History."--Provided by publisher
