However, Slow Memory researchers believe that the key social challenges of today – climate change, disinformation, accelerated technological advancements, economic inequalities, and conflicts over values – require not only a rethinking of the conceptual tools but also changes in the methods of conducting research on social remembrance. Why and how should we slow down in the field of Memory

The Slow Memory Podcast ·

2023/09/22

In this era of rapid acceleration, scholars are subjected to unprecedented pressures to deliver at a pace that is unsustainable. The “boom” in memory studies and memory practice since the 1980s is one expression of this sped-up environment.
