Abstract: This special issue of AEER is dedicated to memories, commemoration practices, and representations of Chernobyl. The idea for the issue was born during the final conference of the international research project “Politics and Society after Chernobyl” in Potsdam, Germany, in April 2011.The conference took place barely a month after the tsunami and the following nuclear accidents in Japan and just a few weeks before the 25^th anniversary of the 1986 Chernobyl disaster.
