This book offers the first comprehensive study of "sites of memory" in France connected to the history of French imperialism and colonialism, and the ways that the French have remembered or forgotten their colonial past. Through a study of monuments, museum collections and other "sites of memory" this book analyzes the way in which French authorities marked the Paris and provincial landscapes with these reminders of France's colonial "mission", the fate of these sites in the post-colonial period, and what that evolution reveals about French memory of the colonial epoch.
