In these countries, historical narratives are often instrumentalized to buttress the foreign policy decisions, play a prominent role in political as well as public debates. In order to place all this into a comparative framework, Central European University\u2019s Nationalism Studies Program and History Department and their joint doctoral track <em>Populism, Nationalism, and Authoritarianism: Movements and Regimes<\/em> are soliciting papers for an exploratory workshop concerning the morphology and evolution of nationalist historiography in post 1989 South Caucasus. Along with collecting interdisciplinary studies and varied themes, the workshop will aim at devising methodological best practices for researching and analyzing nationalist historical grand narratives in the post-communist space, changes in core elements of national discourses and concomitant historical scholarship, including approaches to examining national history within the different local contexts. The conference will tackle scholarly practices of approaching historical discourses in the region both with qualitative and quantitative methods, focusing on the divergent roles and types of nationalisms and their entanglement with historiography.<\/p>\n<p>This conference aims at initiating a debate on how historical narratives in the countries of South Caucasus have been evolving and how they can be studied with regard to the historiographical frameworks of the broader Eastern European post-Communist space vis-\u00e0-vis the legacies of Soviet rule. In terms of comparative historical approach, this platform would provide a feasible starting point to draw on similarities and differences on academically approaching historical cultures and national historiographies in Eastern and Central Europe on the one hand, and the South Caucasian post-Communist states, on the other. Such a network could potentially lead to the creation of the research group at CEU, making it one of the few institutions that incorporate the focus on the region from the external perspective.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Attachment: <a href=\"https:\/\/events.ceu.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/media\/attachment\/conference-program-ceu-south-caucasus.pdf\">Program<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/events.ceu.edu\/2020-02-15\/nationalist-historiography-post-communist-south-caucasus\">https:\/\/events.ceu.edu\/2020-02-15\/nationalist-historiography-post-communist-south-caucasus<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":19157,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[3,9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19156","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-novosti","category-skupovi"],"acf":{"facebook_opis":""},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/historiografija.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/south_caucasus.jpg?fit=825%2C550&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":54118,"url":"https:\/\/historiografija.hr\/?p=54118","url_meta":{"origin":19156,"position":0},"title":"Understanding Nationalism Today: A Conversation with Erika Harris","author":"Branimir Jankovi\u0107","date":"16. lipnja 2026.","format":false,"excerpt":"Foreign Policy Forum, in partnership with the project \u201cPolitika, dru\u0161tvo i komunikacija u Jugoisto\u010dnoj Europi\u201d (POD-RUKOM), invites you to a discussion on the book The Dilemma of Nationalism in Central and Eastern Europe by Professor Erika Harris (Bristol University Press, 2026).\u00a0 The event will feature Professor Erika Harris (University of\u2026","rel":"","context":"U &quot;Novosti&quot;","block_context":{"text":"Novosti","link":"https:\/\/historiografija.hr\/?cat=3"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/historiografija.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Harris.jpg?fit=800%2C538&ssl=1&resize=350%2C200","width":350,"height":200,"srcset":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/historiografija.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Harris.jpg?fit=800%2C538&ssl=1&resize=350%2C200 1x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/historiografija.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Harris.jpg?fit=800%2C538&ssl=1&resize=525%2C300 1.5x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/historiografija.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Harris.jpg?fit=800%2C538&ssl=1&resize=700%2C400 2x"},"classes":[]},{"id":55627,"url":"https:\/\/historiografija.hr\/?p=55627","url_meta":{"origin":19156,"position":1},"title":"Jie-Hyun Lim, &#8220;Victimhood Nationalism: History and Memory in a Global Age&#8221;","author":"Branimir Jankovi\u0107","date":"5. listopada 2026.","format":false,"excerpt":"Nationalism today depends on the perception of victimhood.
