Abstract
This chapter broadly outlines the growing interest in heritage and memory in and beyond academia. Subsequently, it zooms on key domains of heritage and memory practice in Europe in the twentieth century.
It focuses in particular on developments in the field of post-conflict memorialisation, on how urban heritage has been conceptualized and dealt with, and the efforts to theorize and foster European heritage and memory. The chapter is part of the innovative textbook that aims to address formative processes of European history in transnational and multiperspective way.
