Rezensionen
"This is a worthwhile and interesting book ... . there is however much of interest for the reader, especially in the sections dealing with contemporary war commemoration in Russia." (Steven J. Main, Europe-Asia Studies, Vol. 69 (2), March, 2017)

"Danilova's book is extremely well researched and her careful analysis is sensitive to the many particularities of both societies. ... a timely book that demonstrates the ways in which modern states use the commemoration of the war dead to promote and support messy, ambiguous, and conflict-ridden military campaigns. ... Danilova's outstanding work allows us to see the building blocks of military ideology at work as they are arranged and rearranged by states and social forces to build (or destroy) consensus." (Karen Petrone, Journal of Soviet and Post-Soviet Politics and Society, Vol. 1 (2), 2016)
