The book combines photography and written text to analyse the role of memorials and commemoration sites in the construction of antagonistic nationalism. Taking Cypriot memorializations as a case study, the book shows how these memorials often support, but sometimes also undermine, the discursive-material assemblage of nationalism.

Nico Carpentier is Extraordinary Professor at Charles University in Prague; he also holds part-time positions at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel and at Uppsala University. With Intellect he previously published Communication and Discourse Theory: Collected Works of the Brussels Discourse Theory Group (2019, co-edited with Leen Van Brussel and Benjamin De Cleen), Media and Participation: A Site of Ideological-Democratic Struggle (2010) and Reclaiming the Media: Communication Rights and Democratic Media Roles (2007, with Bart Cammaerts).
