Between "Memory wars" and "repressed memory“
Analyzing and managing political conflicts concerning historical memory and identity
The role of public history as an academic discipline involves the analyze of the different types of debates that arise in public space around generally accepted and disputed images of history. In this context displaced, "repressed" memory becomes the cause of political conflicts and "memory wars“.
The seminar will introduce and analyze chosen cases of conflict such as debates about the legacy of communism and the role of the USSR in former Eastern Europe, protests and dismantling of monuments related to colonialism, attempts to fix the memory of deportations after World War II and memories of state violence under Stalinism. We will jointly discuss causes, actor strategies and solutions to conflicts related to so called "memory wars“.
