Summary/Abstract: This essay has two objectives: first, to better understand how Yugoslavia's communist regime went about constructing an officially-santctioned memory of the Second World War through the building of monuments and graves for "fallen soldiers" and "victims of fascist terror"; second to analyze how Yugoslav citizens reacted to such "sites of memory" from 1947 until 1965.
