Politics and Remembrance in Post-War Vukovar
This paper investigates the state of post-war memory in the Croatian city of Vukovar. It addresses the recent resurgence of Croatian nationalism, manifested through the implementation and subsequent vandalism of civic bilingual (Latin/Cyrillic) plaques. It does so by examining the culture of commemoration that has come to define Vukovar since Croatian independence in 1995 and that has remained powerfully persuasive to this day. Considered a natio…
Scientific literacy in eighteenth-century Germany
Critics tend to qualify German intellectual life in the eighteenth century as a development that assumed a separate course from that of its French and English counterparts. 1 The German Sonderweg is attributed to the country's complex history of fractious politics that did not support the notion of centralized authority, but instead encouraged a state of outright instability, which presented itself as an ever-changing establishment and re-establi…
