Klappentext zu „When the Future Came: The Collapse of the USSR and the Emergence of National Memory in Post-Soviet History Textbooks “
This captivating volume brings together case studies drawn from four post-Soviet states-Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, and Moldova. The collected papers illustrate how the events that started in 1985 and brought down the USSR six years later led to the rise of fifteen successor states, with their own historicized collective memories. The volume's analyses juxtapose history textbooks for secondary schools and universities, and how they aim to create understandings as well as identities that are politically usable, within their different contexts. From this emerges a picture of multiple perestroika(s) and diverging development paths. Only in Ukraine-a country that recently experienced two popular uprisings, the Orange Revolution and the Revolution of Dignity-the people themselves are ascribed agency and the power to change their country. In the other three states, elites are, instead, presented as prime movers of society, as is historical determinism. The volume's contributors are Diana Bencheci, Andrei Dudchik, Liliya Erushkina, Marharyta Fabrykant, Alexandr Gorylev, Andrey Kashin, Alla Marchenko, Valerii Mosneagu, Alexey Rusakov, Natalia Tregubova, and Yuliya Yurchuk.

Pressezitat
"Bjorkman/Kurbatov book is that of the importance of path-dependence - going back yet from pre-Soviet times. Local views of perestroika are highly specific and enduring, something that will be of great significance for current and future politics. The well presented study of state-enhanced identity creation and socialization has done a fine service in pointing out the endurance of national perceptions and identities to specialists and readers interested in the region."- Dennis Soltys Professor at the Department of Public Administration and International Development, KIMEP University
