Moving beyond the familiar focus on populist nostalgia, it reveals the diverse ways political actors mobilise the past: as a resource for legitimacy, as a tool of inclusion or exclusion, and as a means of shaping democratic debate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBringing together leading scholars from across disciplines, the volume offers fresh insights into the symbolic power of history and memory in political communication. From national case studies to cross-European comparisons, it shows how narratives of the past and imaginaries of the future are negotiated, contested, and transformed in public life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTimely, interdisciplinary, and wide-ranging, this book is an essential read for anyone interested in European politics, history, collective memory, and the cultural struggles shaping the future of democracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKatarina Pettersson\u003c\/strong\u003e is an assistant professor of social psychology at the University of Helsinki.
