About this book
Reviews
“The present volume proposes a large variety of approaches to the politics of memory in Central and Eastern Europe, contributing with valuable insights on roots and routes of the past. Personal stories are intertwined with academic writing in comprehensible and conscious research, not losing sight of the structures of remembering because identity defines the next generations and could be easily manipulated.” (Maria Fărâmă, Metacritic Journal for Comparative Studies and Theory, Vol. 5 (1), July, 2019)
