Historical Epistemology of Central, East and Southeast European Studies

Original language description

East European Studies is in an epistemological crisis. The Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine forces us to question analytical models and their epistemic premises that defined East European Studies in recent decades. Currently, a possible way out of the epistemological – and not only structural – crisis is often seen in the call for “decolonization,” “decentering,” and “provincialization” of Russia’s epistemic dominance in East European Studies, understood in its narrow sense as “Russian and Eurasian Studies.” We believe that the current crisis calls for more fundamental considerations. We want to examine the epistemic conditions of the methods and theories that have been applied within the framework of CESEE Studies over the last three decades. “Decolonizing” CESEE Studies not only means reforming curricula and syllabi, challenging established canons, or shifting the focus to “peripheral” areas of research. It means, first and foremost, doing political and historical epistemology, that is, reflecting on the epistemic, institutional, and political conditions of the emergence and development of theories, methods, and practices in CESEE Studies.
