Abstract

The article describes divisions within Norway concerning a national memorial known as "Memory Wound" to commemorate the victims of the July 22, 2011, shooting of a Norwegian Labor Party summer camp on the Norwegian island Utøya perpetrated by gunman Anders Behring Breivik. The article states that memorial dissenters, notably first-responder Jørn Øverby, argue that "Memory Wound" would unnecessarily re-create the trauma of the event.
