Abstract

 
 
 This special issue of The iJournal brings together nine articles from a group of authors with different professional and cultural backgrounds. The discussions here tackle a diverse range of geographies, approaches, and topics. They range from religious intolerance and body and gender to debates about trauma, war, and dictatorship. But, despite different histories and conjectures being analyzed, all nine articles examine issues on difficult memories in the museum and/or archives and discuss globalization and its politics and representations. Comparing different curatorial settings, analyzing the interaction between local and global contexts, and contemplating the development of memorialization projects in different spaces allows museum and archive professionals to better think about trauma, the erasure of memories, the politics (its struggles and possibilities) for healing, and the creation of democratic and decolonial spaces.
