Nicolas Maslowski & Kinga Torbicka (eds.), Contested Legacies of 1989. Geopolitics, Memories and Societies in Central and Eastern Europe, coll. Studies in Sociology: Symbols, Theory and Society, vol. 12, Peter Lang, Berlin 2022.
Strongly affected by modern history and facing dilemmas of modernity, Central and Eastern Europe has been healing fresh wounds for the past 30 years. The present volume analyzes the contemporary challenges related to the heritage of 1989. The peaceful revolution brought substantial socio-cultural, institutional and strategic transformations, setting a long-term course for Central and East-ern European policymaking. Recently, however, these legacies, namely the geopolitical aspects of the transformation, the policies of collective memory, and even intrasocietal issues, have been questioned more than ever. It seems the region is approaching the end of a revolutionary cycle of transition. This volume tries to investigate this phenomenon as it unfolds.
