45th IARCEES Annual and International Conference

“Legacies of Cultural Resistance in Post-Communist Central and Eastern Europe”, 10-11 June 2024, TCD

Call for papers

Public discourse about Central and Eastern Europe in the wake of the approaching 35th anniversary of the collapse of communism is largely overshadowed by war, economic instabilities, growing social problems and the erosion of democratic values. Such topics have provoked significant scholarly attention in recent years. At the same time, there is an increasing academic interest in forms of resistance, opposition and social protest – past and present. The topic of cultural opposition has remained relatively marginal in such discussions, despite the crucial role culture played in forging intellectual dissent to communist rule in the late socialist period.

Call deadline: The call for papers is closed.

See the Conference site for the programme and registration.

The AGM will take place on Tuesday, 11 Jun, 5 pm. All members welcome. Please send any motions to the secretary.
