This book offers a critical interpretation of the European heritage for the present day. It shows that a transnational perspective on memory and European historical formation draws attention to processes of entanglement and that a focus on such forms of entanglement might be a basis for critical and comparative research on heritage. The book poses the question: is it possible for European societies - and Europe more generally - to create a transnational form of heritage that reflects transnational and entangled memories and identities?
