Description

Explore the complex relationship between history and power in this scholarly collection from Central European University Press. The Convolutions of Historical Politics presents thirteen essays written by experts from seven different countries. This volume examines how history is used and misused in political spheres during recent decades. While the text focuses heavily on the post-communist context of Central and Eastern Europe, it provides a broad perspective through comparative studies. Readers can find detailed analysis of case studies including Hungary, Poland, Estonia, Moldova, Ukraine, and Russia. To add a global dimension, the book also includes articles regarding the political use of history in Germany, Japan, and Turkey. This collection is particularly relevant for understanding the new conditions of history politics in environments characterized by political pluralism and a lack of censorship. It offers a deep look into how historical narratives shape modern political landscapes across diverse regions.
