Editorial note

  • According to Hirst et al. (2018, p. 439): “Definitions of collective memory abound. Generally, they fall into two classes: one that treats collective memories as consisting of publicly available symbols maintained by society […], and another that defines collective memory as individual memories shared by members of a community that bear on the collective identity of that community.“
