ABSTRACT War memorials have been historically used as propaganda tools that facilitated the creation of a collective memory about past actions. With the rise of the society of leisure and gamification, new strategies to reach these goals seem to be developing. With this in mind we study the case of Mleeta Landmark, built in Lebanon as a theme park to commemorate Hezbollah’s role in the 2006 war against Israel. To do this, we analyse the usage, history and main characteristics of war memorials. With this information, we outline the existence of a new hybrid model in Mleeta, which combines an original family-oriented vision with the traditional memorial’s role. It possesses many museum features, such as multi-lingual guides, and those of a memorial, with abundant military elements. This convergence is a unique example of propaganda and historical recreation oriented towards the viewer and embodies the contradictions within Hezbollah itself, both a religious, political and military group.

战争纪念馆,介于宣传和历史之间:Mleeta Landmark 和真主党

摘要 战争纪念馆历来被用作宣传工具,促进对过去行动的集体记忆的创造。随着休闲和游戏化社会的兴起,似乎正在开发实现这些目标的新策略。考虑到这一点,我们研究了 Mleeta Landmark 的案例,该地标建于黎巴嫩作为主题公园,以纪念真主党在 2006 年对以色列的战争中的作用。为此,我们分析了战争纪念馆的用途、历史和主要特点。有了这些信息,我们概述了 Mleeta 中存在一种新的混合模型,它将原始的以家庭为导向的愿景与传统纪念馆的角色相结合。拥有多语言导览、纪念馆等多种博物馆特色,军事元素丰富。
