Quantifying Collective Memories

Resumen

This preprint models collective memory as a two-step decay process in which short-lived communicative memory and long-lived cultural memory sustain different temporal regimes of collective attention. The model predicts when cultural memory overtakes communicative memory and highlights policy-relevant implications for public problems.
