自1994年第一次准军事停火以来,对北方爱尔兰问题的纪念越来越流行。回忆过去最初被想象成一种表达悲伤和承认损失的机制,现在它具有越来越多的社会和政治价值。将过去的叙述铭刻在街景中与现在有着不可分割的联系,因为冲突的一些主要行为者争夺权力和领土。作为一种政治资源,纪念活动被用作改变“麻烦”参数的工具。本文通过对新芬党(准军事组织爱尔兰共和军的政治派别)和英国政府在和平时期北方爱尔兰的纪念活动的考察,重点探讨了新芬党和英国政府在和平时期的命运变化。
Abstract Commemoration of the Northern Ireland Troubles has gained increasing currency since the inception of the first paramilitary ceasefires in 1994. Imagined initially as a mechanism through which to express grief and acknowledge loss, remembering the past has an increasingly social and political value. Inscribing narratives of the past into the streetscape is inexorably linked to the present as some of the main actors of the conflict vie for power and territory. A political resource, memorializtion has been employed as a tool to alter the parameters of the Troubles. This paper focuses on the changing fortunes of Sinn Féin (the political wing of the paramilitary organiztion the Irish Republican Army), and the British government in peacetime Northern Ireland, through an examination of the commemoration of their respective dead.
