Description:
The work has a historical-hermeneutical dimension, especially significant for the history of the present time, of making memory a form of justice. The importance of this theme is significant also due to the fact that, exclusively for the area of recent history, an attempt is made to address a blurred subject through multidisciplinarity, constituting an extension tendency, by discussing some new and even “non-academic” aspects of the subject, to the historical discourse on the researched and analyzed topic. (The author)
Topics of interest:
- historiography
- social, political and military history
- anthropology
