Introduction to the special issue
This article introduces the special issue Slow Memory Studies , which emerges from the COST Action “Slow Memory: Transformative Practices for Times of Uneven and Accelerating Change.” In a world defined by rapid technological, socio economic, and political shifts, the concept of slow memory offers an alternative analytical framework that foregrounds gradual, often imperceptible transformations shaping everyday life. Rather than centring spectacul…
Slow memory and historical storytelling
This article examines the memory of state socialism in Kosovo through a gender and slow memory lens. It revisits the ‘archive’ of a woman’s scholarship from the socialist era to shed light on gender and power dynamics in memory frameworks and storytelling. The focus is on three points: First, an attempt is made to uncover patterns of gendered remembrance and how they have influenced Kosovo’s dominant memory and historical narratives. Second, it i…
Gender and Transitional Justice
Memory Activism and Digital Practices after Conflict, Unwanted Memories, written by Orli Fridman
The role of community-university engagement in strengthening local community capacity in Southeastern Europe

Are We Putting Human Rights into Social Work Practice in Kosovo
In this article, we explore how social workers are putting human rights into practice in Kosovo. We present a snapshot of the current human rights context in Kosovo; we discuss frameworks for rights-based practice within social work; and we explain the evolution of Kosovar social work education and the role of human rights within it. Ultimately, we focus on the results of a new survey that uses Albanian translations of the Human Rights Methods in…
Human Rights in This Age of Uncertainty
Skirts as Flags
Wartime rape is ubiquitous in contemporary conflicts. Its commission is deeply implicated in the gendered notions of a nation: a woman's body is constructed as a target in a conflict that involves different identity groups and as an object of protection within a nation. Addressing past wrongs in view of repairing relationships after human rights violations across the identity divide is an integral part of post-conflict recovery (Murphy, 2017, pp.…
Like Dust before the Wind, or, the Winds of Change? The Influence of International Criminal Tribunals on Narratives and Media Frames
∞ When created, international criminal tribunals (ICTs) were not only expected to do justice but also to provide stabilization to postconflict regions, contribute to reconciliation and curb the potential denial of atrocities. Based on media content analysis, this article examines whether controversial ICT decisions triggered changes in narratives or frames about the conflicts which formed the background of the respective ICT decisions. There is n…
Migration and Human Rights in Kosovo
Imagery, Gender and Power
The article focuses on the politics of representation in Kosova since the United Nations took over 'peace management' in 1999. It uses UN propaganda posters (political pedagogy) and local nationalist political advertising as a way to read the multiple gendered discourses of representation. It shows how gender is used relationally between competing forces - the 'international community' and nationalists - as a tool to ensure UN's imposition of Wes…
