SUMMARY:Collective Forgetting
DESCRIPTION:Work across a range of different disciplines appeals to the not
 ion of forgetting that occurs at the level of a group\, with talk of colle
 ctive forgetting\, or social amnesia\, for instance. Is there a way of und
 erstanding this kind of idiom as anything more than either a metaphor\, or
  a shorthand for what is happening at the level of the individuals who com
 prise a group? In this talk I first of all disambiguate what it would take
  for forgetting to be truly (or interestingly) social. I then describe two
  ways in which this could come about: the first explores ways of aggregati
 ng the individual attitudes I claim are involved in forgetting\, such that
  the resulting attribution of forgetting at the group level could come apa
 rt from our attributions of forgetting to the group&rsquo\;s members. The 
 second thinks of forgetting in functional terms\, and allows that the mani
 festation of that function can differ between individual and group in ways
  that allow the two to come apart. I argue that the second avenue offers t
 he more fruitful way of understanding collective forgetting.&nbsp\;
