"""More than a roadmap to memory activism or an account of its revitalizing effects on Memory Studies, this Handbook offers an illuminating set of reflections on the import and reach of activist memory projects across the globe and across the political spectrum. Here, scholars and activists alike will find essential examples, caveats, provocative questions, and forms of inspiration for the work ahead."" Marianne Hirsch, Columbia University, USA ""Key issues and debates in the field of memory studies are presented here from a pioneering vantage point – that of memory activism. The experiences and dilemmas covered in this Handbook come from across the globe and offer multiple mirrors in which to reflect on and enrich one’s own findings and perspectives. A must for researchers, practitioners, and activists!"" Elizabeth Jelin, Centro de Investigaciones Sociales (IDES-CONICET), Argentina ""Late to develop, the attention to memory is quickly spreading in social movement studies. This Handbook of Memory Activism offers a most relevant contribution on how mnemonic and political changes are connected, and on the arenas, the actors, and the places of memory practices ‘in action’. It comprehensively demonstrates how memories of past struggles affect contentious politics and democratic developments more broadly."" Donatella della Porta, Scuola Normale Superiore, Italy ""[The handbook identifies] the new ‘turns’ and provide[s] a wealth of approaches to the study of memory in IR, playing an important role in shaping the field. [It is] a very useful resource to anyone new to the study of memory in IR."" International Affairs, 99:6 2023, Dovilė Budrytė, Georgia Gwinnett College, USA and Vilnius University, Lithuania"
