Смрт, страдање и сећање: Прилог проучавању политичке употребе смрти, страдања и колективног памћења на примеру српско-бугарских односа после Првог светског рата
Death, Suffering and Memory: Contribution to the Study of the Use of Death, Suffering and Collective Memory for Political Purposes – the Example of Serbian-Bulgarian Relations after the World War I

Summary/Abstract: The Serbian-Bulgarian relations, which were often marked by political and diplomatic conflicts and wars, culminated in the World War I. After the war, the Bulgarians became deeply rooted in the collective memory of the Serbs as an “arch-enemy” and the most hated nation. This could also be seen in the way the common recent past was interpreted. The aim of this paper is to show the ways the publicly and officially treasured memory of the recent past of Serbian-Bulgarian relations can be used politically, and the way the war sufferings and calamities, historical dates and events, were used in the internal political and ideological discourse.
