Memory Studies Review

Memory Studies Review provides a unique platform for multidisciplinary research spanning a wide range of methodologies and theoretical frameworks across the field of memory studies. The journal is invested in exploring the ways in which the individual and collective, social and psychological, and political and cultural dimensions of memory interact with understandings of time, space, place, and scale. We are especially interested in the relationship between memory and environments of different kinds. We ask: how does memory shape and how is memory constituted by the natural world and built environments, as well as political, social and technological settings and surroundings? The journal seeks to establish an arena for a fourth wave of memory studies: an ecological, ecocritical, and post-humanist turn. We invite new research which explores memory in terms of ecosystems and the Anthropocene. We likewise encourage scholarship with innovative understandings of agency in order to enable a reconsideration of the interrelation of subjectivity and materiality, and the human and non-human.
