This book looks at the memory of the communist past in Central and
Eastern Europe, with a particular focus on Bulgaria: its "official"
memory, constructed by institutions, its public memory, molded by
media, rituals, books and films and the urban environment, and the
everyday or 'vernacular' memory. It investigates how the recent
past is remembered and the circumstances upon which this memory is
conditioned - how is communism/socialism construed as a public
recollection? Do these processes differ in the distinct
post-communist countries? The book's first part traces the
institutional and political dimensions of coping with the communist
past and the second part concentrates on personal reminiscences and
vernacular memory. The book will be of interest for researchers and
students in the fields of memory studies, Central and East European
studies, oral history and contemporary history, as well as for
specialists at institutions of memory and memory activists and
organisations.
