Abstract

A blog for the Society for the History of War, about empire, war and memory in contemporary Britain. Focussing on the Commonwealth War Graves Commission's 'Non-Commemorated' report, the blog explores the memorialisation of imperial conflict and soldiers and asks questions about the legacies of empire amidst the contemporary 'culture wars'.
