In a global age, Holocaust commemoration has undergone a process of cosmopolitanization which manifests itself on many levels such as in the emergence of a supranational Holocaust memory and in a transnationally inflected canon of Holocaust art. The objective of the collection is to explore the entangled migrating memories of the Holocaust in North America, Western and Eastern Europe, and Israel by investigating two thematic aspects: First, the specifics of national commemorative cultures and their historical variability and, second, the interplay between national, local and global perspectives in the medial construction of the historical event. ?Entangled Memories? opens up a range of perspectives by re-conceptualizing the practices, conditions, and transformations of Holocaust remembrance within the framework of a dynamic global cultural, intellectual, literary and political history

Since 1962 and the signing of the Evian agreements, not a year goes by without the memory of the Algerian war returning to public debate, including during election campaigns or every March, when mayors refuse to celebrate it. Since 1962, not a street inauguration "March 19, end of the war in Algeria" is happening without it being disturbed by incidents or that its name is changed during "counter-inaugurations". And the quarrels rebound even in the educational field where the students of terminal have to study "the memories of the war of Algeria". The memory of the conflict seems to haunt French society as if, between history and memory, nothing had yet been decided. However, there is no better evidence of this omnipresence and the stakes of this complex memory, far from the simplifications and instrumentalizations of which it is the object, than the question of the commemoration of the end of the war. In a country like France, fond of public ceremonies and civic pedagogy by the feast, the issue of the commemoration of the end of the war synthesizes all the issues of memory, identity and history of the Algerian question. By placing this "impossible commemoration" in its national context, by studying the various memorial groups involved, the numerous commemorative legacies and ceremonial practices in the field, Remi Dalisson shows the stigmata of war.
