Exploring how this troubled memory works in Vietnam, the United States, Laos, Cambodia, and South Korea, the book deals specifically with the Vietnam War and also war in general. He reveals how war is a part of our identity, as individuals and as citizens of nations armed to the teeth. Venturing through literature, film, monuments, memorials, museums, and landscapes of the Vietnam War, he argues that an alternative to nationalism and war exists in art, created by artists who adhere to no nation but the imagination."-- Provided by publisher 650 0 Vietnam War, 1961-1975|xSocial aspects 650 0 Vietnam War, 1961-1975|xArt and the war 650 0 Memory|xSociological aspects 650 0 War and society 650 0 Art and war 650 0 Identity (Psychology) in art 650 7 Vietnamkriget 1957-1975|2sao 650 7 Kollektivt minne|2sao 907 00 161128
