From 24th to 30th September 2012, ISHA Zagreb organized an Autumn Seminar in Zagreb, Croatia, titled “Education and Intellectual Emancipation.” For almost seven days, participants, around 60 of them from more than 15 countries, had an opportunity to enjoy the many beauties of Zagreb, learn about the history and culture of Croatia, but also to join a crosscultural debate about the development and the level of education and historiography in various countries. Participants were divided into seven workshops, each workshop consisting of several participants presenting their original works and discussing various aspects of the main topic. The first workshop, “Total Institutions” (moderators Nino Kovačić and Karlo Kocbek), reviewed the system of control and restrictions enforced by institutions, which, through history, tended to either partially include or completely exclude and supervise various groups and individuals, as well as the institutions’ concept and framework. The second workshop, “Collective Memory, Forgetting, Counter- Memory” (moderators Marko Morović and Zvonimir Plavec), handled the topic of how memory about certain events and people can change over time: some memories increase in importance, some are (getting) forgotten, while most change overtime because of certain shifts of political, social and economic nature. The third workshop, “Education Models through History and Educational Material” (moderators Josip Pavić and Marko Skočibušić), dealt with the interaction between history and education - through schools, textbooks and homework, but with the role of upbringing and social context as well. The fourth workshop, “Student Movements in History” (moderators Tena Banjeglav and Zoran Šoltić), approached the problem of student movements 6 within the framework of educational policy changes, and its impact on improvement of education. The fifth workshop, “Education from Below” (moderator Lara Zelić), disscussed how different movements, preconceptions and actions affected the formation of minority education which came either from within the minority itself, or from the ranks of the “majority”. The sixth workshop, “History and Pop Culture” (moderators Marko Ožegović and Mislav Radošević), examined the balance that history and its representation in pop culture must maintain, the pop culture’s attempts to build a realistic picture of a certain part of it, modify it for the purpose of entertainement or propaganda, or ridicule our obssesion with establishing “historical truths”. The seventh workshop, “Intellectual Emancipation in Contradictions: Equality, Authority, Commodity” (moderators Stefan Treskanica and Ivan Rastović), explored how today’s dominant standpoint about education and its ideologies uses its potential to change the place of an individual in societal relations by presenting movements or individuals developing these ideas. The idea for publishing a Journal dedicated to the topic of Education and Intellectual Emancipation came to us naturally at the beginning of our planning of this international seminar. While formulating our first workshops, we were excited with the prospect which the topic, which connects history and education through time and space, carried with it. But, writing and publishing a journal is a long and sometimes frustrating endeavour. Lots of people had to be included in the process of making it, and a lot of caution and care had to be taken. We tried to present you with a selection of those papers that were deemed the best and most interesting. While editing them we tried to make our interventions within the texts themselves as small as possible, so that the historical interpretation of the subjects would solely be left to their authors. However, we did try to make all the titles, subtitles, footnotes and bibliographies follow the same pattern in all the presented papers. We apologize for any mistakes and omissions that we ourselves might have made, which you might find while reading our Journal. We are very grateful to all our contributors for the professionalism they showed by presenting us with their work, to our proofreaders, to our professors for reviewing this Journal, and to prof. Silvija Pisk, PhD, for assigning the UDC classification to each paper, and Adam Vuk for the graphic design. A special thanks goes to the entire ISHA Zagreb team and everybody who participated in the workshops, the organization, the sightseeing, and also just by hanging ISHA Journal Education and Intellectual Emancipation 7 out with the participants. Besides the moderators, just to name a few: Sara Katanec, Ivor Škrinjar, Zoran Miković, Marko Pekčec, Ana Jaklinović, Martina Barešić, Anja Blažević, Petra Blažević, Kristina Rupert, Ivan Vuković, Sonja Šojo and many more. We are especially grateful to sponsors and contributors, like professor Tvrtko Jakovina for opening the academic part of the seminar, the Departement of History, the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, the University of Zagreb, the Ministry of Science, Education and Sports of the Republic of Croatia, the Krapina-Zagorje County, the Zagreb Tourist Board, Zagrebačka pivovara, the radio station Novska (“Na tragu kulture” show) and Croatian Radio’s first channel (“Ništa nevažno” show) for their financial and moral support. Editors 8 UDC 321.6 (091) Review From heaven to hell — Totalitarian regimes in utopias and dystopias Joonas Nivala, University of Helsinki ISHA Helsinki, [email protected] Totalitarian institutions are more or less dystopias to modern people. The idea that a state controls an individual with no limits to its authority and strives to regulate every aspect of public and private life wherever possible, brings to mind for most of us the 20th century political tendencies of Soviet Union and fascist countries. From the viewpoint of utopian literature, it wasn’t always like this. The development to this point has been as old as the idea of the state. In this article I offer you a view of how totalitarian institution has developed from utopia to dystopia in a few centuries and how the mode of thinking could have influenced utopian and dystopian thought of world-to-be. Introduction and terminology: Utopia, Dystopia and Totalitarianism Totalitarian ideals have changed from utopian ideals towards dystopian ones and have followed patterns which utopian writing itself has gone through in these past centuries. For many people utopias are products of dreamers

  • Boundaries of Utopia – Imagining Communism from Plato to Stalin
    Boundaries of Utopia – Imagining Communism from Plato to Stalin The idea that socialism could be established in a single country was adopted as an official doctrine by the Soviet Union in 1925, Stalin and Bukharin being the main formulators of the policy. Before this there had been much debate as to whether the only way to secure socialism would be as a result of socialist revolution on a much broader scale, across all Europe or wider still. This book traces the development of ideas about communist utopia from Plato onwards, paying particular attention to debates about universalist ideology versus the possibility for ‘socialism in one country’. The book argues that although the prevailing view is that ‘socialism in one country’ was a sharp break from a long tradition that tended to view socialism as only possible if universal, in fact the territorially confined socialist project had long roots, including in the writings of Marx and Engels.

    Sos Political science & Public administration M.A.Political Science II Sem Political Philosophy:Mordan Political Thought, Theory & contemporary Ideologies(201) UNIT-IV Topic Name-Utopian Socialism What is utopian society? • A utopia is an imagined community or society that possesses highly desirable or nearly perfect qualities for its citizens.The opposite of a utopia is a dystopia. • Utopia focuses on equality in economics, government and justice, though by no means exclusively, with the method and structure of proposed implementation varying based on ideology.According to Lyman Tower SargentSargent argues that utopia's nature is inherently contradictory, because societies are not homogenous and have desires which conflict and therefore cannot simultaneously be satisfied. • The term utopia was created from Greek by Sir Thomas More for his 1516 book Utopia, describing a fictional island society in the south Atlantic Ocean off the coast of South America Who started utopian socialism? • Charles Fourier was a French socialist who lived from 1772 until 1837 and is credited with being an early Utopian Socialist similar to Robert Owen. He wrote several works related to his socialist ideas which centered on his main idea for society: small communities based on cooperation Definition of utopian socialism • socialism based on a belief that social ownership of the means of production can be achieved by voluntary and peaceful surrender of their holdings by propertied groups What is the goal of utopian societies? • The aim of a utopian society is to promote the highest quality of living possible. The word 'utopia' was coined by the English philosopher, Sir Thomas More, in his 1516 book, Utopia, which is about a fictional island community.

ABSTRACT THE BASOVIZZA MONUMENT: REBRANDING PUBLIC MEMORY, CONSTRUCTING IDENTITY, AND NORMALIZING POLITICAL AGENDA by Louise Zamparutti The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2018 Under the Supervision of Professor Rachel Spilka In the early 1990s, Italy’s former Fascist party, the newly renamed Alleanza Nazionale (AN), began to promote a new interpretation of events that occurred in the final stages of World War II. In collaboration with local and national civic organizations, the AN promoted this rendition of history by publishing fictionalized memoirs and popular narratives, producing a nationally aired television drama, and finalizing the construction of a new national monument. The Basovizza Monument was officially inaugurated on February 10, 2007, and is now a popular attraction for tourists and classroom visits.
