The Eurovision Song Contest is a good example: it is a mega event that is one of the most watched television shows in the world and therefore able to reach a mass audience for any message that is wished to be send. Officially it is not allowed to be political, but the contest is often implicitly full of political references. From songs and performances to voting, examples galore. This interplay between amusement, music and politics has potential in processes of reconciliation and restorative transitional justice after (violent) conflict or even genocides in Europe (the former Yugoslavia, Germany) or within the borders of the Eurovision Song Contest (Armenia). 3 Introduction Every year around late April and early May, the countries of Europe (and beyond) come together for a singing contest that has become one of the world’s most watched events in the history of television. The Eurovision Song Contest (or Eurovision) started with seven countries, an orchestra and a conductor, and grew into the biggest international musical competition with over forty countries participating every year from east to west.1 The Eurovision has seen Europe change from the broken continent it was shortly after the Second World War, the economic growth afterwards; the growing unity initiated by that other European initiative: the European Union; the wall dividing not only Germany but also East and West, and then coming down; to the subsequent fall of the Soviet Union and the expansion of the cultural and political concept that was ‘Europe’. The Cold War was played out, wars were fought, but the Eurovision Song Contest happened every year since 1956. The contest’s explicit denunciation of politics on stage has had little effect on the reality, for implicit political messages have been present on the stage from the early years of the contest. These messages – my personal favorite is Turkey’s submission to the contest a year after the oil crisis of 1979, a love song for a man named Pet’r Oil – are often in the context of a conflict or its aftermath. The stage of the Eurovision Song Contest provides the perfect venue to convey a message to or generate attention from a mass audience. In this thesis, the cases of Armenia, Germany, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia will be brought to the table to show how different sides to a conflict represent themselves variously at the Eurovision Song Contest in relation to their violent history. An analysis of these cases shows an opportunity for a mechanism of a more progressive approach to transitional justice by focusing on cultural elements and reconciliation, besides the judicial aspect of transitional justice. Research on the Eurovision Song Contest has mostly been focused on detecting voting patterns and blocs by means of statistical analysis by Derek Gatherer, Gad Yair and others. They have detected voting blocs based on cultural and linguistic affinities. The foundations for the Eurovision were not without political implications, and with the growth in participating countries came a growth in political dimensions to the festival.2 In the past few years, more research has been devoted to this by scholars such as Dean Vuletic, Catherine Baker, Marijana 1 Chris West, Eurovision! (London: Melville House, 2017): 4. 2 Anna Boulos, ‘Nil Points, Douze Points and Everything in Between: An Analysis of Political Voting Bias in the Eurovision Song Contest’, Master Thesis, Sanford School of Public Policy (2012), 38. 4 Mitrović and Ivan Raykoff. However, in relation to genocides and transitional justice, the Eurovision has been understudied. To demonstrate the relation between the Eurovision Song Contest and (cultural forms of) transitional justice, I elaborate on the ways in which the contest played a role in, or was a previous cultural manifestation of transitional justice, and how this can be used in future cases. My first point will be that the Eurovision Song Contest has had inherently, from the beginning onwards, political implications, whether it be on or off stage, especially in the validation of nations and states of their existence. I illustrate that side of the Eurovision Song Contest with the example of Ukraine, together with an elaboration on the voting systems. The latter can sometimes be a peculiar reflection of attitudes towards other participating countries. Following this, I show how the Eurovision Song Contest has been employed by Armenia as a cultural-institutional (coming from the broadcasters) initiative with regards to the Armenian Genocide. This case shows the side of the victims in a quest for demanding justice. Then I employ the case of Germany to show how in the early stages of the Eurovision, used this cultural event to distract from or deliberately create modifications of perceived stereotypes of perpetrators in the early stages of the Eurovision. This thesis will not analyze every entry of every participant of every year in this work, instead I will focus on the relevant years. And it goes without saying that not every entry is as political. There will always be enough songs merely about love, joy and happiness; here I have selected the ones that are politically charged. Finally – this will be the major part of this work – I discuss the case of the countries of the former Yugoslavia. I expand on the relations between these states and how these are strangely absent from the Eurovision stage. This will lead to the conclusion that mega events such as the Eurovision Song Contest, unintentionally serve as ideal venues for various manifestations of cultural transitional justice in multifold ways. 5 1. Transitional justice 1.1 The limited scope of transitional justice To end a violent conflict is often quite an achievement, yet conflict as such does not fully end. New issues arise: what to do with the perpetrators, the institutions and the judicial system? If these were part of the former conflict, they need to be adjusted. That is where transitional justice – as a (relatively) new field of study and practice – enters the stage to develop strategies on how to move forward in the most inclusive possible way.3 The first step of transitional justice is the criminalization of punishable acts that occurred, or retributive justice.4 Special courts or tribunals are then set up, because the judicial system in place is often not capable of handling the gravity, severity and multiplicity of the cases. When comparing the first case where transitional justice was implemented, the Nuremberg trials after the Second World War, to more recent cases, the shift in focus from perpetrator to victim becomes clearly visible.5 In the Military trials in Nuremberg, the focus on the victims was futile. That does not mean retributive justice should be discarded, it remains one of the cornerstones of transitional justice, because it shows (or intends to) a break with the previous regime, emphasizing the transformation to a post-conflict state.6 Transitional justice comes in all shapes and sizes; but its necessity – in any form – to a (post-) conflict society is by now widely recognized. Other components of transitional justice, next to – or instead of – criminal prosecution include truth-seeking and reforms. The truth- seeking aspect is especially important, as tribunals search for the truth in order to come to a just sentence. However, this truth is often not seen as the whole truth, since a court looks at the juridical aspects of the conflict only. This might (and should) be the truth, but it is not complete.7 Although it might not establish the entire truth, judicial truth does, as Michael Ignatieff has 3 Makau Mutua, ‘What is the Future of Transitional Justice,’ International Journal of Transitional Justice 1, no. 9 (March 2015): 4. 4 Rama Mani, ‘The Rule of Law or the Rule of Might?

With the use of soft power politics in warfare as the root of interest, this study uses the theories of cultural diplomacy and visual international relations to explore how images may be central to modern-day warfare and conflicts as the perception of. The study has a theory-building approach and aims to build on the concept of cultural diplomacy in order to explain how the images sent out by states can be politized and used to conduct cultural warfare. To explore how Russia and Ukraine used Eurovision Song Contest as a cultural battlefield this study uses the methodological framework of a qualitative case study with the empirical data being Ukraine’s and Russia’s Eurovision Song Contest performances in 2016 and 2017, respectively, which was analyzed using Roland Barthes’ method of image analysis. The main finding of the study was that both Russia and Ukraine used ESC as a cultural battlefield on which they used their performances to alter the perception of themselves and the other by instrumentalizing culture for political gain.

  • WEE19 – Reviewed by London Student
    West End Eurovision 2019: A Reminder of the Talent and Supportive Community in the Theatre Industry ARTS, THEATRE Who doesn’t love Eurovision? The complete lack of expectation for any UK contestant adds a laissez faire tone to the event that works indescribably well with the zaniness of individual performances. Want dancing old ladies? Look up Russia’s 2012 entrance. Has the chicken dance from primary school never quite left your consciousness? Israel in 2018 had you covered. Eurovision is camp and fun, and we need more of that these days… cue West End Eurovision, a charity event where the casts from different shows compete with previous Eurovision songs to win the approval of a group of judges and the audience. The seven shows competing were: Only Fools and Horses, Everybody’s Talking About Jamie, Aladdin, Mamma Mia!, Follies, The Phantom of the Opera, and Wicked. Each cast performed for four judges – Amber Davies, Bonnie Langford, Wayne Sleep, and Tim Vincent – following a short ident. Quite what these were for I’m not sure was explained properly to the cast: are they adverts for their shows (Everybody’s Talking About Jamie), adverts for the song they’re to perform (Phantom) or adverts for Eurovision generally (Mamma Mia!)? I don’t know, but they were all amusing and a good way to introduce each act. The cast of Only Fools and Horses opened the show, though they unfortunately came last in the competition, a less-than jubly result. That said, with sparkling costumes designed by Lisa Bridge, the performance of ‘Dancing Lasha Tumbai’, first performed by Ukraine in 2007, was certainly in the spirit of Eurovision and made for a sound opening number.

  • The Grave Goods of Roman Hierapolis
    THE GRAVE GOODS OF ROMAN HIERAPOLIS AN ANALYSIS OF THE FINDS FROM FOUR MULTIPLE BURIAL TOMBS Hallvard Indgjerd Department of Archaeology, Conservation and History University of Oslo This thesis is submitted for the degree of Master of Arts June 2014 The Grave Goods of Roman Hierapolis ABSTRACT The Hellenistic and Roman city of Hierapolis in Phrygia, South-Western Asia Minor, boasts one of the largest necropoleis known from the Roman world. While the grave monuments have seen long-lasting interest, few funerary contexts have been subject to excavation and publication. The present study analyses the artefact finds from four tombs, investigating the context of grave gifts and funerary practices with focus on the Roman imperial period. It considers to what extent the finds influence and reflect varying identities of Hierapolitan individuals over time. Combined, the tombs use cover more than 1500 years, paralleling the life-span of the city itself. Although the material is far too small to give a conclusive view of funerary assem- blages in Hierapolis, the attempted close study and contextual integration of the objects does yield some results with implications for further studies of funerary contexts on the site and in the wider region. The use of standard grave goods items, such as unguentaria, lamps and coins, is found to peak in the 1st and 2nd centuries AD. Clay unguentaria were used alongside glass ones more than a century longer than what is usually seen outside of Asia Minor, and this period saw the development of new forms, partially resembling Hellenistic types. Some burials did not include any grave gifts, and none were extraordinarily rich, pointing towards a standardised, minimalistic set of funerary objects.

The song was praised, the singer, daughter of a famous Serbian singer, was hailed, and the whole song contest was by many seen in a new light: removed from its flamboyantly campy gay aesthetics which seems to have become one of the main signifiers of the whole contest in recent decades. As the contest had al- ready lost the Danish drag performer DQ in the semi finals, the victory of Serbia’s subtle hymn-like invocation placed the whole contest in a much more serious ballpark. With “Molitva” the contest seemed to shrug off its prominent gay appeal restoring the contest to its roots, to the idea of a Grand Prix of European Song, where the aim has been Marija Šerifović’s performance was said to lack camp and restore the to find the best European pop song in a contest between contest to its roots, to the idea of a Grand Prix of European Song. different European nations.

  • Lieu : Koncertna Dvorana Vatroslav Lisinski De Zagreb ( Yougoslavie )
    Lieu : Koncertna Dvorana Vatroslav Orchestre : Orchestre de la JRT. Lisinski de Zagreb ( Yougoslavie ). Présentation : Helga Vlahovic & Oliver Date : Samedi 5 Mai. Mlakar. Réalisateur : Nenad Puhovski. Durée : 2h 49. Zagreb, capitale de la république Yougoslave de Croatie accueille le concours 1990, le groupe Riva, victorieux en 1989, étant originaire de cette partie du pays. La salle de concert Vatroslav Lisinski est pour l’occasion habillée de néons et offre au concours un décor beaucoup plus coloré et lumineux que les années précédentes. Le producteur a voulu un spectacle résolument plus jeune et plus enlevé que les dernières années et les chansons se succéderont sans l’intervention du couple de présentateurs, Helga Vlahovic et Oliver Mlakar. Ce rythme volontairement rapide permet au concours de réduire substantiellement sa durée, de plus de 20 minutes par rapport à 1989. Le concours a, cette année, une mascotte nommée Eurocat qui après une courte ballade musicale dans Zagreb amènera les téléspectateurs jusqu’à la salle. Il participera aux cartes postales qui annoncent chacun des candidats. Pour célébrer l’année européenne du tourisme, ces films ont été tournés dans chacun des pays participants. Les présentateurs se contenteront d’ouvrir le concours, Helga en anglais et Oliver en français, de faire une intervention entre les 7 ème et 8 ème chansons puis entre les 15 ème et 16 ème et bien sûr pour les votes. Marie-France Brière vient d’être nommée responsable de l’unité divertissements d’Antenne 2 et décide, à ce titre, de s’occuper seule du choix de la chanson française pour l’Eurovision.
