Resumo
The paper examines the mechanisms of preserving the historical memory of the participants of the Afghan War (1979–1989) using the city of Ekaterinburg as an example. It analyzes the monumental policy pursued in the city, expressed in the installation of monuments, memorial complexes and other memorial signs to the soldiers of the Afghan war; changes in toponymy associated with assigning the names of the Ural internationalist soldiers to city streets. Examples of museum representations and commemorative practices aimed at preserving the historical memory of the war in Afghanistan are given. A conclusion is made about the need for further study and improvement of the tools for mobilizing collective memory of the Afghan military conflict.
