Yugo-Region Research Group

Yugo-Region Research Group is a collaborative project that aims at creating a research network of faculty, researchers and PhD students across disciplines whose research focuses on the former Yugoslavia and its successor states. It involves students and faculty from History, Gender, Nationalism, Anthropology, and International Relations Departments at CEU. Our goal is to play a part in the thriving and dynamic field of multi- and inter-disciplinary studies of the Yugo-region, highlighting emerging new research and to promote CEU as a leading center of such studies. Our present and future activities include film screenings followed by discussion, and organizing informal and formal presentations (debates, conferences, lectures) addressing the important political and theoretical issues, which can help in understanding the complex socio-political process in the Yugo-region in the past and present.
