SUMMARY:"Minerva's Outcast Children: Expelled Scientists and the Politics of History in the Max Planck Society." a talk by Michael Scheuring
DESCRIPTION:The talk is about the treatment accorded by Germany’s most prestigious research organization\, the Max Planck Society\, after 1945 to scientists who had been dismissed from its predecessor\, the Kaiser Wilhelm Society\, during the years of National Socialism. It shows how conflicts over legal claims for compensation derived from a fundamental lack of understanding between the majority of German scientists and their persecuted colleagues. It also reveals the Max Planck Society’s lack of willingness to accept moral responsibility for its conduct between 1933 and 1945.

SUMMARY:"From Dayton to Brussels\, via Tuzla: Post-2014 Politico-Economic Restructuring in Bosnia and Herzogovina" a talk by Danijela Majstorovic
DESCRIPTION:The political and economic transformations of peace-building and state-building efforts in post-Dayton Accords Bosnia–Herzegovina (BiH) have resulted in a dysfunctional\, ethnically divided and impoverished country in social crisis. Articulating a demand for greater social justice\, the 2014 protests and plenums in BiH emerged as a response rejecting both ethnic division and the corruption of post-Dayton political economy. While for most Bosnian politicians it was the biggest threat so far\, it also appeared to represent an opening for a new reform agenda by the EU\, visible in its ‘Compact for Growth and Jobs’\, pitched as the latest precondition which aimed to revitalize BiH’s path to European integration. I argue that the Compact and the responses to it offer a useful diagnostic to gauge how the post-Dayton political field has shifted since the events of 2014\, particularly in terms of articulating left responses within ethno-nationalist context. \nDr. Majstorovic is an Associate Professor of Linguistics and Cultural Studies at the University of Banja Luka.

SUMMARY:"The Political Life of Exported Steel" a talk by Zoran Vuckovac
DESCRIPTION:Over 20 years after the war\, Omarska iron mine still lacks any formal marking that shows its infamous history as a former concentration camp for non-Serb population during the 1992-95 Bosnian war. The apparent lack is only a symptom of the silence actively produced around historical events constitutive of what is now known as Republika Srpska. \n \nTaken into account the site’s turbulent history\, namely the fact that the former socialist mine was turned a concentration camp only to become a private enterprise ran by the world’s biggest steel producer\, ArcelorMittal\, this study traces intricate ties between local nationalism and international capital by accounting for the dissenting cultural practices by actors in the country and abroad.​\n\nDr. Vuckovac is a Frank McClosky Fellow at Indiana University.
