Collective facet/shared - we only know we have collective memory when we vocalize/share the memory with others. Past in the present/place (continues in the present; active) Governed and regulated (i. e. education to view the world in certain ways) Adaptive, continual, constructed (present influence on heritage = something important to attend to; not a pure authentic thing of the past but the present does things to the heritage) Institutional and citizenly (rights and responsibilities; civic/collective good): constitutive and organizing rhetoric (puts in a framework that helps us understand and shape identities, belongings, practice): happens across institutions -> mobilizes collective and social memory. National identities may still be in the process of creating/shaping itself (i. e. africa - apartheid) Individual? (schofield): heritage does not necessarily have to be monumental/government- related; can be more everyday, personal, etc.
