useums may transport us to other times and places, shape identity, inform desire, and remind us of values we hold dear. Memories are not always, however, beautiful or welcome. Injustice, warfare, and traumatic loss are as much a part of our collective past as great works of science, invention, and art. In a time of warfare and trauma on a massive scale, we consider the role of museums that are dedicated to remembering the darker side of the human condition, and those that are struggling with these memories.
<P>
Memory researcher Daniel Schacter writes of the deep importance, both personal and social, of passing on stories from one generation to the next: “The need to preserve memories across intergenerational time," he says, "is a fundamental human imperative.” With their storehouses of objects and their places where people can meet and talk, museums and historic sites play a vital role in the process of remembering and making sense of the past, even memories of the darker chapters in human history. Museums can also support personal healing. Old photographs and mementos enhance recall of personal memories, support storytelling, and may aid in psychological healing.
