Since the fall of the Iron Curtain, formerly socialist countries
have gone through manifold transformations, whilst remnants of
socialism remain ubiquitous. The volume explores various spaces of
the postsocialist landscape, presenting a mixture of real and
imaginary spaces, of memory and nostalgia, of aesthetic and
political symbolism, of the global East and the global South, of
academic and essayistic writing. It casts a glance at the
heterogeneous relics of socialism and their transformation in very
different parts of the world. From the description of
(post-)socialist interiors, facades, neighborhoods, parks,
monuments, and objects towards the imaginary spaces of literature,
the contributors describe the concreteness and intimacy of some of
the places that span across and even beyond of what is left of the
"second world" today.
