Decommunisation – Fascism without Fascists
Are there fascizizing ways to look at public space and aesthetics? If so, how do they manifest themselves? What characterizes the fascization of space? How and where can you recognize it? How do architecture and symbols in public space contribute to fascization of daily life?

Aleksander Smolar discusses the history of Aneks, the Polish-lan…
