CFP Panel: Interrogating Dominant Discourses on Inter- and Post-Bellum South-Eastern European Societies Panel for the conference “Living after the Fall(?): Past-Present in Southeastern Europe,” Sofia, Bulgaria, June 12-13, 2014 Abstract Deadline: April 18, 2014 The objective of this panel is to explore past and contemporary dominant historical and sociological representations of modernizations, communisms, and inequalities (ethnicity, race, gender, class) in Southeastern Europe. Since these key issues have carried a significant ideological load, the purpose here is to suggest new modalities of (re)framing them. The papers are expected to engage with one of the following broad topics: - How have dominant discourses of modernization shaped historiographical and sociological representations of the interwar period and/or really existing “communisms”? - Alternative historiographical approaches that reassess, decenter, or go beyond the totalitarianism paradigm. Interested researchers are invited to submit paper titles, abstracts of up to 250 words and short biographical statements (one paragraph) to the following email address until April 18, 2014: interrogatingdiscourses@gmail Panel organizers: Ion Matei Costinescu (University of Bucharest) and Theodora-Eliza Vacarescu (University of Bucharest)
