“Haskins’s innovative theoretical approach to ambient memory yields important insights into contemporary Russia and the way Stalinism and nationalism have returned to the fore. Remembering the War, Forgetting the Terror is an important scholarly work and an intervention into current global trends.” —Kendall R. Phillips, editor of Framing Public Memory “Remembering the War, Forgetting the Terror is a very timely intervention into the politics of memory in contemporary Russia. By juxtaposing the war and terror, the author presents a very persuasive argument for the ambience of memory and its prosthetic quality. A haunting and fascinating read.” —Elizaveta Gaufman, author of Everyday Foreign Policy: Performing and Consuming the Russian Nation After Crimea
