Afterword—Beyond agonism? Dialogic remembering, social change, and slow memory

This afterword situates the special issue within current debates in memory studies. The concept of “dialogical remembering” opens a productive conversation with “agonistic memory,” developing a relational and non-binary approach to conflictual pasts. Moreover, the concept is a productive methodological and analytical complement to the perspective of “slow memory” providing one of the means by which slow memory instances can be empirically traced.

Abstract

This afterword situates the special issue within current debates in memory studies. The concept of “dialogical remembering” opens a productive conversation with “agonistic memory,” developing a relational and non-binary approach to conflictual pasts. Moreover, the concept is a productive methodological and analytical complement to the perspective of “slow memory” providing one of the means by which slow memory instances can be empirically traced.
