Recenzii
McGlynn delivers a timely, well-researched account of how memory politics are playing out in Russia today, where history also functions as ideology. This book is excellent for those interested in discovering how Russians understand their recent history, and why they have come to view it as they do.
McGlynn presents a powerful and disturbing case that the invasion had a convincing historical logic to it, for Vladimir Putin and for Russians more generally. . . . As if to prove McGlynn's point, historically based justifications for Russian policy and alleged plots by the West form terrifyingly explicit parts of Russia's most recent National Security Strategy. Her insightful and creative analysis suggests that we are in for a long conflict not just over the fate of Ukraine, but also over how differing memories of the past will continue to shape the future.
McGlynn's informative study of Russia's "memory wars" shows just how easily performance, media narratives and cultural priming can slip into real violence.
Memory Makers makes for fascinating reading . [It] should be required reading for anyone wishing to engage in Russian politics, scholars, journalists, policy-makers alike.
Pithy and tightly argued.
Scholarly, revelatory and deeply unsettling . Dr McGlynn's brilliant, remorseless study inculpates almost the entire Russian nation.
History is back - armed with artillery and with a commitment to genocide. Jade McGlynn's highly timely study shows how Putin weaponises the past to destroy the future
As Vladimir Putin presents his imperial adventure in Ukraine as a twenty-first century re-run of the Great Patriotic War against the Nazis, it has never been more crucial to understand the degree to which his regime seeks to legitimise itself by the rewriting of history, and Jade McGlynn provides a deeply-argued and nuanced analysis of this pernicious process.
Jade McGlynn explains why Russians back the senseless war on Ukraine - because of the state's abuse of history as a tool to legitimate Russia's return to empire.
McGlynn's fascinating study shows how Russian memory politics does much more than evoke memories of World War Two. Its particular propaganda form is to replay and conflate the past and the present. Events in Ukraine in 2014 are not just said to echo those of the 1940s, footage and commentary are literately spliced together; Russia's intervention in Syria is depicted as the Cold War that wasn't, with Moscow victorious.
Painstakingly dissects the genesis, defining features and aims of the Kremlin's manyfold (ab)uses of history in the last decade...Jade McGlynn's book is much-needed reading for scholars who want to dig deeper into the discourse underpinning Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine and the political use of history in today's world more generally. Through thorough and painstaking analysis, the author engages with this narrative very seriously, dissecting its key tenets, examining where it comes from - and, sadly, where it is leading Russia and its people.
