HISTORY AND CULTURAL MEMORY

Сажетак

HISTORY AND CULTURAL, Edited book from the international scientific conference “History and cultural memory” May 2024, Institute for Political Studies, Belgrade, edited by Jovan Janjić and Milena Pešić.

The guiding interest in organizing the “History and cultural memory” conference, as well as this collection of papers, was the consideration of complex relations between history, cultural memory and politics of memory. These three fundamental concepts are at the center of the memory studies that have become an influential research stream within the humanities and social sciences in the last few decades.

At the International Scientific Conference “History and Cultural Memory” held on May 20 – 21, 2024, the experts dealt with the named topic, which is neither foreign nor unknown to the Institute for Political Studies. The thematic collection of scientific works entitled Govor mržnje i kultura pamćenja (Hate Speech and the Cultural Memory) was published by the Institute in 2020, and brought together experts from several countries who adequately responded to the topic fixed in the title of the book. It can be said that the Institute for Political Studies has a tradition of dealing with the cultural memory and its various aspects.
