The conference aims to explore various aspects of the contemporary practice of memory and propaganda in the global context, encompassing Europe, Asia, and the Americas. Two main questions that will be discussed are: What characteristics, if any, distinguish the politics of propaganda from the politics of history? Which factors beyond political regimes determine how propaganda has been implemented in the past?

The keynote talk, titled “Russia’s Casus Belli: Memory Politics or Political Propaganda?” will be presented by Alexander Etkind of Central European University at 5:00pm on June 8.
