“…Here is a matter of principal which I managed to persuade my colleagues to adopt. Silence is the language of mourning, and therefore silence is the right 'accompaniment' to a horizontal museum (Ben-Ze'ev et al, 2010).…”

In this essay I claim that all sites of memory have both local and national meanings, since they say that something happened here or to the people who live here, in this country, which is worth remembering in public. Only some sites of memory are international, in that they are constructed not solely by locals or residents of a particular region or state, but by groups of people in different countries drawing attention to events they think significant. However, transnational sites are those which were constructed or designated as significant by people from different places or different states, who worked together to represent the past from a transnational perspective. Therefore, the central question of my research is what did memory agents, that is, the people who built or used these sites of memory, want to achieve through them? What were they for? The answers I present are based on war memorials and museums. Reflecting on these sites underscores the ways in which war memorials are palimpsests, in the sense that they have multiple levels of meaning attached to them, corresponding to the collective memory of local, regional, national, international and transnational communities about our violent age.

“…Aaron Ben-Ze'ev, for instance, thinks that 'at the very foundation of romantic jealousy lies the concept of entitlement' where the notion of entitlement is understood as 'our assumed right to exert control'. 17 However, a person can have legitimate expectations to things to which they are not entitled. We are not entitled to a birthday card from our partners, but we have a legitimate expectation they will get us one.…”
