Call for participants
The Institute of Ethnology and Anthropology in Skopje, the Center for Ethnology Studies and Applied Anthropology (Skopje) and the Municipality of Kriva Palanka are announcing a call for participants in the international spring school ‘Ethnography of Socialism’. It is dedicated to social, economic, political and cultural life in the period of socialism in SFR Yugoslavia, comparing them to other socialistic countries.
The aim of the school is to offer the participants detailed data and analysis of the most important features and specificities of socialist system and communist ideology and their reflections upon everyday life of people. We will research the dynamics of the formation of personal and collective memories of the socialistic past and their influence upon the contemporary notion of cultural heritage and identity. Also, the aim is to undertake comparative analysis or at least offer case studies that could reveal the main similarities and differences in the practical implementation of socialism and of communist ideology in SFRY and the countries of the ex-Eastern bloc.
The spring school will be conducted through these different forms:
~ Four courses: Anthropological Approach to Understanding Socialism, Research Methodology and Field Techniques, Political Economy and Society in Socialism, Visualizing Socialism. Guest lecturers are to be announced.
~ Field research in a period of 7 days, with a final presentation of results.
~ Activities, concerning the cultural heritage of socialism: listening to music, watching films, etc.
It is suitable for BA, MA and PhD students in the field of Ethnology and Anthropology, Sociology, Political Studies, etc. The participation fee is 270 euro and covers the expenses for food and accommodation. All of the lecturers are taking part voluntarily and do not draw a fee.
