SESSION 1:

How Long Does The ‘Post’ Last? Spatial Dynamics in Post-Socialist Transition​

 

How long does the 'post' last? In order to answer this question, we should also investigate when has the post begun? 'Post' is from today’s perspective regarded as homogeneous process, but the aim of this introductory session would be to question this opinion having in mind specific historical and cultural context of various Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) countries that are nowadays regarded as post-socialist. Therefore, having in mind different social, cultural and historical circumstances of various countries, territories and cities that are nowadays called post-socialist, this session should examine special local contexts that preceded the post period. This session welcomes diverse perspectives of spatial dynamics explored with special emphasis on the processes of morphogenesis. Through examination of these processes running on different spatial levels, studies within this session should finally shed a new light on the beginning of transitional spatial dynamics and try to predict when or if the post will ever be finished.
