    In parts there are some issues with the audio of this recording, for which we apologise.


    History, myths, memories, and monuments each tell their own stories. This event will focus on how history is interpreted and represented in the US and the UK. The panellists will discuss how ‘History, Mythologies, Memories, Monuments’, and narratives on both sides of the Atlantic influence how history is taught, perceived, and portrayed, as well as used to mould current political rhetoric and future ideas. More broadly, the event will cover issues facing the US and UK in domestic, trans-Atlantic, and global contexts, including asking the essential question: what is the value of democracy?


    This talk is part of a series, titled ‘Unfolding Our Shared Future’, which is delivered by the American Politics Group of the Political Studies Association and the host universities with the support of the British Association of American Studies and US Embassy in London.


    This is a podcast featuring talks, papers, & interviews linked to the American Politics Group of the Political Studies Association.


    Executive Producer: Dr Peter Finn, Kingston University
