Memory as Foreground, Journalism as Background

Abstract

Although memory studies has long argued for the importance of a variety of institutional settings engaged in memory work, journalism has not typically been one of them. But a brief revisit to memory studies’ most central work and to the ways in which ideas about memory and journalism have developed alongside each other suggests that memory studies and the very notion of collective memory could not exist without journalism.
