Abstract
AbstractOur chapter reflects on how commemoration and ‘the past’ have become implicated within national security practices which anticipate and act upon future insecurity. Across public inquiries, coroners’ investigations and memorialisation, there is an in-built assumption that societies (and security practitioners) should be able to learn from disastrous events.
