• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The archaeology of the recent or contemporary past has grown fast during the last decade. This development has been concurrent with a broader popular, artistic and scholarly interest in modern ruins in general. Ruin Memories explores how the ruins of modernity are conceived and assigned cultural value in contemporary academic and public discourses, reassesses the cultural and historical value of modern ruins and suggests possible means for reaffirming their cultural and historic significance. Anybody interested in the archaeology of the contemporary past will find this an essential guide to the very latest theoretical research in this emerging field of archaeological thought.
