Revisionisms revised. Does the radical right appropriate or disrupt historical narratives through revisionism? 1
Post-peasant progressivism as a kind of populism
Since 1989, the dominant characteristics of civil society in Eastern Europe have been associated with voluntary activism and organizations located between the state and the sphere of the household, mushrooming especially in the urban setting and pursuing what has been teleologically projected as the climax of post-socialist consolidation: secular-liberal cosmopolitan democracy. Apparently non-civil, illiberal, or even reactionary citizens' action…
Post-Peasant Progressivism
This collection of essays is the result of the joint efforts of colleagues and students of the leading social anthropology and post-socialism theorist, Professor Chris Hann. With the thirtieth anniversary of the collapse of the Berlin Wall in 2019 as their catalyst, the authors reflect upon Chris Hann’s lifelong fieldwork in the discipline, spanning regions as diverse as East Central Europe, Turkey, and the Chinese north-west
The Post-socialist Integralism and Its Non-religious Origins
Against the background of several biographies of non-religious persons in Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, this paper opens the discussion about the sources of reactionary conservatism in the non-religious sphere, parallel to the revival of religious fundamentalism after state-socialism. The argument is that the post-socialist conservative turn has to be analysed with regard to wider implications resulting from the transformations of soci…

Post-Peasant Populism of Eastern Europe
This paper conceptualises an East European type of populism that I call post-peasant. It originated in state-socialist modernisation and mobilises people who are not peasants, but who nevertheless value the countryside as morally superior to a life in large cities. My major contention is that post-peasant populism emerges under specific cultural-economic conditions, among which the institution I call the ‘post-peasant house’ is paramount. This in…
Village Fascists and Progressive Populists
The introduction of liberal reforms in Slovakia has generated countermovements that build upon nostalgia for state socialism. This essay shows how countermovement emotions can be successfully employed by both reactionary and liberal leaders, provided that they accurately respond to voters’ concerns by mitigating the economic ideology of the free market and reflecting voters’ preferred ways of life. It argues that recent protest movements, whether…
The Cultural Economy of Protest in Post-Socialist European Union
Focusing on Slovakia and East Central Europe, this book examines the cultural economy of protest and considers how the origins of political movements – progressive and reactionary – derive from resilient agrarian features. It draws attention to how the legacy of rural socialist modernization influences contemporary politics and to the ‘village’ version of fascism developing in the region. The chapters look at the interplay of post-peasant economi…

Post-peasant Memories
This article is part of the special cluster titled Social practices of remembering and forgetting of the communist past in Central and Eastern Europe, guest edited by Malgorzata Glowacka-Grajper In this article, I argue against the primary perception of communist nostalgia as either longing for social security or the “dark ages” of anti-communist narratives. I suggest we look deeper into people’s everyday economic practices and ideas under commun…

Scale and ethnicity in Southeast Poland
This paper discusses the staging of Ukrainian ethnicity during the celebrations of Kupaly Night, an annual community ritual in Southeast Poland. The argument embarks from an analysis of changing nation state policies in Poland after state socialism and emphasises the growing influence of European Union (EU) policies on the public representation of ethnicity. These policies have moved ethnicity from the level of everyday practice, but also from an…
Europeanisation and post-peasant populism in Eastern Europe
On the basis of an examination of rural social structure, traditionalist narratives and an agrarian imaginary resulting from uneven development, this article investigates the forms of political mobilisation which materialise in East European politics as ‘post-peasant populism’. Focusing on grassroots mobilisation, an analysis of the annual Corpus Christi ritual in the city of Przemyśl, south-east Poland, serves as the basis for an exploration of …
Nationalism, Religion, and Multiculturalism in Southeast Poland
In the early 1990s, the Polish city of Przemyl became known for the tensions existing between Roman Catholic Poles and Greek Catholic Ukrainians. These tensions derived from the indivisible links between nationalism, religion, and politics in southeast Poland. This article analyses how they are tied up in political rituals. The fi rst two rites analysed commemorate the sufferings during the war, and by politicising collective memory they strength…
