      ab: The article discusses "Memory and Social Movements in Modern and Contemporary History," an anthology edited by Stefan Berger and Christian Koller, which explores the relationship between memory and social movements. The collection features diverse case studies from various geographical and historical contexts, illustrating how social movements leverage memory to mobilize support and shape collective identities. Key topics include the invocation of historical narratives in protests against hydropower projects in India, urban redevelopment conflicts in West Germany, and the memory politics of right-wing populist movements in Germany. The volume emphasizes the importance of integrating memory studies with social movement studies, offering a critical examination of how memory can be both a resource for activism and a tool for political manipulation.
