This year seminar's goal is to take an additional step, both time-wise and content-wise, and to explore different discourses of Other which are to be found in new post-Yugoslav states. We are interested in discursive representations of the Other in the post-ethnic conflict period, from the perspective of social remembering, phenomena of fugitives, exile and nostalgia.
The seminar is designed as series of lectures from regional and world renowned researchers on aforementioned topics. Also, seminar will include panels for students to present their own work and to exchange their ideas, regarding the subject matter, with lecturers and fellow students.
All interested in these topics are kindly invited to apply for the seminar and to sends us short abstracts of their research theses by May 15 on:
