Remembering communism : private and public recollections of lived experience in Southeast Europe
\"The volume examines the formation and transformation of the memory of communism in the post-communist period. The majority of the articles focus on memory practices in the post-Stalinist era in Bulgaria and Romania, with occasional references to the cases of Poland and the GDR. Based on an interdisciplinary approach, including history, anthropology, cultural studies and sociology, the volume, examines the mechanisms and processes that influence, determine and mint the private and public memory of communism in the post-1989 era. Common denominator to all essays is the emphasis on the process of remembering in the present, and the modalities by means of which the present perspective shapes processes of remembering, including practices of commemoration and representation of the past. As a result, the analyses point at the sociopolitical factors and societal processes that help construct, transform, stabilize and finally canonize past memory. Due to its interdisciplinary character and the wide range of methodological and theoretical approaches presented, the volume offers a broad and varied kaleidoscope of memorial practices in a variety of milieus of post-communist societies, from school to the internet. The volume deals with eight major thematic blocks revisiting specific practices in communism such as popular culture and everyday life, childhood, labor, the secret police, the perception of 'the system' and others. The analyses highlight occasionally similarities and differences between the two principal case studies, resulting in the end effect in the observation of a significant divergence in the memory of communism between the two neighboring countries\"--Provided by publisher.

Radical Ethnic Movements in Contemporary Europe
Nation states and minorities resort more and more to violence
when safeguarding their political interests. Although the violence
in the Middle East has been dominating world politics for some time
now, European governments have had their share of ethnic violence
to contend with as this volume demonstrates. And as the case
studies show, ranging as they do from the Basque Country to
Chechnya, from Northern Ireland to Bosnia-Herzegovina, this applies
to western Europe as much as to eastern Europe. However, in
contrast to other parts of the world, instances where political
struggles for power and social inclusion between minorities and
majorities lead to full-fledged inter-ethnic warfare are still the
exception; in the majority of cases conflicts are successfully
de-escalated and even resolved. In a comprehensive conclusion, the
volume offers a theoretical framework for the development of
strategies to deal with violent ethnic conflict.

Mit Blick auf das Verhältnis von Finnen und Esten mit ihrem übermächtigem Nachbarn im Osten lösten die vor genau 400 Jahren im nordwestrussischen Weiler Stolbovo getroffenen Festlegungen dann doch eine bis in die Gegenwart hinein reichende longue durée-Wirkung aus, ein veritables „Making of Finnland in Karelia and of Estonia on Lake Peipus and along the Narva River\" also mittels des engen Zusammenhangs von „Territories, Boundaries and Consciousness\".
