History and politics. Discourse on the past in Eastern Europe and Russia. 3620-HPD-H-OG
The course consists of 7 topics. Thematically, each lesson is related to the previous and future lesson. In general, the course is divided into two logical blocks. The first includes an introductory section, the methodological aspects of future analysis, and the analysis of the historiographical narrative in post- Soviet societies in Eastern Europe and Russia. In other words, it creates an understanding of how a particular discourse on the past is constructed and fixed in a particular society. The second block has a more practical meaning. Specific case studies will be used to show the practical purpose of discourse about the past within the power structure and language of politics. Territorially, the course covers contemporary Russia and so-called post-Soviet Eastern Europe with a special focus on such countries as Lithuania, Belarus, and Ukraine. The main goal of the course is to broaden knowledge about the post-Soviet region and to enable participants to critically reflect on the discourse on the past and its instrumental significance for power.
