Nostalgic reconstruction and historical preservation: two regimes of post-communist urban memory
Original language description
Conventional studies in post-communist urban memory all too often focus on capital cities and the memory work of museums, monuments and memorials. Contrary to this trend, the proposed paper turns attention to past oriented urban/architectural reconstructions of peripheral cities taking place in Central Eastern Europe since the early 1990s. It shows how the intensified competition among cities ? triggered, e.g., by the booming tourist industry or the race for the status of the European Cultural Capital (an EU project, from which the capital cities are excluded) ? brings about a heightened reflexivity to and re-construction of a specific historical legacy of peripheral cities, and how this process transforms and sometimes complicates the picture of a shared national past.
