Reviews
For thirty years Schuman and his colleagues have focused on examining how belonging to a generation affects various forms of shared memory, producing research that has shaped the course of collective memory research. Building on the theories of the important German theorist Karl Mannheim, Corning and Schuman provide a clear, concise, and compelling analysis of how belonging to a generation shapes societal commitments through shared experience and awareness. Generations and Collective Memory is destined to become a touchstone work in the analysis of how history becomes integral to politics and national affiliation. --Gary Alan Fine author of Difficult Reputations: Collective Memories of the Evil, Inept, and Controversial -For thirty years Schuman and his colleagues have focused on examining how belonging to a generation affects various forms of shared memory, producing research that has shaped the course of collective memory research.
