Places of remembrance such as concentration camp memorials are regarded as central pillars of the German culture of remembrance. They are intended to warn, educate and symbolize historical responsibility. But what if these places also contribute to the reproduction of the social conditions they claim to overcome?

Felicitas Kübler is a human geographer and is doing her doctorate at the University of Klagenfurt. In her research, she deals with anti-fascist and counter-hegemonic memory practices as well as Theodor W. Adorno's works on social theory.
