In this first episode of the 2017 series, recorded in October 2017, we look at the shift from a future perspective on memory, and an amnesiac indifference to the late global conflict, in the first decades after World War II to the present “memory boom,” when cultures can’t seem to keep their eyes off the past. As the war recedes in time, it seems to come closer to our attention. What is going on?
