Series of events: ‘History in Conflict: Soviet Myths’
The ‘Great Patriotic War’ remains to this day a central point of reference in the memory of the Second World War in the post-Soviet space. However, since the collapse of the Soviet Union, diverse and, in some cases, conflicting cultures of remembrance have developed.
