11:00am-12:30pm — Panel: Children of Postsocialism: Reflecting on Revitalization in Southeastern Europe
This cross-disciplinary panel will consider how (young) people in Southeast Europe and the Balkans are taking up past worlds to make sense of the present as they build desired futures. Broadly considering the question of revitalization, the conversation will span social and political movements, mobility and re-evaluations of place, new digital and linguistic realities, artistic legacies that new generations of artists must navigate, and more.
Panelists:
