Vol. 85 (2022): Living in the post - Ethnographic Perspectives on Postsocialism and Memory
Thirty years after the emergence of the term postsocialism, this volume is dedicated to the multiple (re)configurations the concept has undergone since then and inquires its current analytical value. Looking at different contexts, the authors examine the multiple uses of and perspectives on the concept. They turn to various forms of (material) heritage, artistic-activist projects of remembering, or East-West power dynamics and discuss the ambivalent relationship to post- and decolonial theories. The articles are framed by a focus on practices of remembering, the presencing of the past and its impact on the future.
