Partizanska Drežnica: A Microhistory of Socialist Memorial and Heritage Practices

This talk is based on the research done as part of the project Heritage from Below / Drežnica: Traces and Memories 1941-1945 which, since 2019, has been gathering researchers of different backgrounds – archaeologists, historians, anthropologists, architects and visual artists – interested in a community-based, critical engagement with local narratives, memorial practices and materialities of the recent past, and its contested histories in the present moment. Drežnica, an isolated village located between Gorski kotar, Lika and Hrvatsko Primorje, was one of the hotspots of the antifascist uprising in the summer of 1941, where local Serbian peasantry and working class activists, met with Spanish Civil War volunteers and members of basically all major belligerents armies of the global conflict. Having been such an important WW2 stage, Drežnica’s landscape was permanently marked by material traces (remains of hospitals, printing houses, or refugee shelters) and countless stories and memories related to this traumatic and in many ways foundational event for the local community. Combining the knowledge collected on site (material evidence and oral sources) with the archival sources, I have gained a far more complex and comprehensive understanding of how these and other factors influenced the prolific production of postwar monuments, and how changes within the Yugoslav socialist system – from the administrative, to the level of cultural and memory politics – were reflected on memorialization strategies, as well as local social and economic practices related to it. Through this case study, I will show that the production of monuments and their formal aspects were not only a mirror of socialist hegemonic memory discourse, but that they reflected – and continue to do so – a diverse array of voices on the micro-historical level. Finally, I will argue that the community-based and interdisciplinary practices are crucial for developing critical tools and methodologies in approaching contested heritage of the 20th century social, revolutionary and military history.

Sanja Horvatinčić is a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Art History in Zagreb. She received her PhD on Memorials from the Socialist Era in Croatia – Typology Model in 2017 at the University of Zadar. Her research focuses on monuments as artistic and social practices of mediating the past, with a focus on the Second World War and the social history of the 20th century. She had done research in the fields of critical heritage studies, gender studies and digital humanities. She is the author of a number of scientific and professional papers and the coordinator of the international project Heritage from Below / Drežnica: Traces and Memories 1941-1945.
