Remembering Communism examines the formation and transformation of
the memory of communism in the post-communist period. The majority
of the articles focus on memory practices in the post-Stalinist era
in Bulgaria and Romania, with occasional references to the cases of
Poland and the GDR. Based on an interdisciplinary approach,
including history, anthropology, cultural studies and sociology,
the volume examines the mechanisms and processes that influence,
determine and mint the private and public memory of communism in
the post-1989 era. The common denominator to all essays is the
emphasis on the process of remembering in the present, and the
modalities by means of which the present perspective shapes
processes of remembering, including practices of commemoration and
representation of the past. The volume deals with eight major
thematic blocks revisiting specific practices in communism such as
popular culture and everyday life, childhood, labor, the secret
police, and the perception of "the system".
