Cultures of Economy in South-Eastern Europe
This volume focuses on cultures of economy in regions of the former Yugoslavia, examining narratives and poetics of economy in literature, film, and art, as well as in public discourse. It spans the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Socialist Yugoslavia, and the transitional and neoliberal period since the 1990s.
Procedures of Resistance
This volume explores the state of literary theory today, decades after the repeatedly proclaimed end of theory. It builds on the idea that theory is historically constituted as it is “always becoming something else” as Leslie Fiedler claimed in the 1950s, arguing that the historical constitution of theory relies on theory’s procedural nature. In order to assess theory’s procedural challenge to the fundamental notions that all the disciplines within an episteme have brought to the fore, it addresses these questions: What are the procedures theory has relied on? Are they a secret to its resistance, or is resistance its primary procedure? And if so, a resistance to what? Secondly, if resistance were theory’s principal vehicle, at which point does resistance, conceptualized only procedurally (as resisting something, questioning anything, criticizing whatever), display hallmarks of a disciplinary closure that must call for new resistances, and perhaps for a fundamentally another kind? The book turns to what theory does in order to avoid a partial answer to what theory is.
Temporalities of Post-Yugoslav Literature
This book examines the theoretical devices of "Yugoslav" and "post-Yugoslav" literature. The author analyzes selected literary examples from the region through the lens of a contemporary post-Deleuzean philosophy of time, extricating discussions of post-ism from traditional chronological framing.

Post-Yugoslav Constellations
This volume analyzes new articulations of cultural memory in the wake of Yugoslavia’s dissolution by engaging with diverse media, such as literature, cinema, comics, visual art, monuments, and the internet. Understanding cultural memory as a mediated and performative engagement with the past, the collection foregrounds art’s power to record unofficial histories, critically delve into historical traumas, and imagine radical forms of solidarity.
Balkan Memories
This book gives an insight into the media constructions of historical remembrance reflecting transnational, national or nationalistic forms of politics. Authors from post-Yugoslavia and neighbouring countries focus on the diverse transnational (such as Austro-Hungarian, Yugoslav etc.) and national (such as Bosnian, Croatian, Serbian etc.) memory cultures in South-Eastern Europe, their interference and rivalry. They examine constructions of memory in different media from the 19th century to recent wars. These include longue durée images, breaks and gaps, selection and suppression, traumatic events and the loss of memory, nostalgia, false memory, reactivation, rituals and traces of memory.

Brüderlichkeit und Bruderzwist
Whenever different social strata, religious communities, ethnic groups or nations were to be united in one political movement or in one state in Eastern Europe, the initiators usually appealed to their purported "brotherliness". Various overarching common traits were invoked, different traditions were called into action: from early Christianity to communism, from secret associations to proletarian alliances and partisan associations, from blood relationships (probratimstvo) to multinational states (Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia), from pan-Slavism in all its forms to Tito's "Third Way". The rhetoric and media enactments spanned from the commitment to metaphorical brotherly love to enforced affiliations to extortionate "family clans" that asserted their political goals through bio-politics and racism.
