TOURISM IN FUNCTION OF DEVELOPMENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF SERBIA Tourism as a Generator of Employment (TISC 2019) – Thematic proceedings I THE INTERNET PRESENCE OF BELGRADE MUSEUMS IN THE SERVICE OF CULTURAL TOURISM Dragana Ćamilovi ć 1; Abstract Statistics show that the number of tourists visiting Belgrade has been increasing in recent years. Considering the city’s rich cultural and historical heritage and abundance of museums, there is a significant percentage of cultural tourists among them. When exploring a specific destination, cultural tourists search for information on the Internet. Therefore, the presence of Belgrade museums on the Internet through their websites and profiles on social networks is important for attracting cultural tourists. The aim of this paper is to evaluate websites of several Belgrade museums and their Facebook pages. A comparative analysis of selected websites will be presented in detail, and suggestions concerning their improvement will be given. A special attention is paid to social media marketing. The author has investigated Facebook pages of the selected Belgrade museums, and this analysis will also be presented in the paper. Key Words: the Internet, museum websites, Facebook, cultural tourism, Belgrade JEL classification: Z10, Z30, M15 Introduction The number of tourists visiting Belgrade has been increasing in recent years.

Yugonostalgic Against All Odds: Nostalgia for Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia Among Young Leftist Activists in Contemporary Serbia
Yugonostalgic against All Odds: Nostalgia for Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia among Young Leftist Activists in Contemporary Serbia Nadiya Chushak Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2013 School of Social and Political Science The University of Melbourne Produced on archival quality paper ii Abstract This thesis examines yugonostalgia – nostalgia for the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRY) – in contemporary Serbia. Yugonostalgia often has a negative reputation – both in academia and in everyday life – as an ‘unhealthy’ or even debilitating fixation on the socialist past. However, this thesis argues that yugonostalgia tells us not only about nostalgic subjects’ attitude towards the past but also about their current concerns. Contemporary Serbia is permeated by discourses privileging nationalistic and neoliberal values. This thesis explores how young people can develop nostalgic attitudes towards the socialist past, even in such an unlikely context. Yugonostalgia is an ambiguous phenomenon, and this ambiguity allows for positive dimensions and uses. To highlight the emancipatory potential of yugonostalgia, this thesis utilises ethnographic fieldwork among young leftist activists in Serbia’s capital, Belgrade. The focus on this milieu demonstrates how yugonostalgia is not simply reactionary but can overlap with and even energize a critical stance towards both nationalistic and neoliberal projects in contemporary Serbia. Additionally, this focus on young activists helps to counter popular negative stereotypes about Serbian youth as either passive victims of their situation or as a violent negative force. Finally, the thesis also adds to our understanding of how the meaning of the ‘left’ is negotiated in post-socialist conditions.

[2] Abstract The present thesis is concerned with the examination of Yugonostalgic modes of remembering as manifested, articulated, and actualized in the post-socialist, nation- state of Serbia. By focusing on four indicative cases, two films (Tito and me, Underground) and two “loci” (Tito’s Mausoleum and Yugoland), the aim is to show that it is precisely the different dimensions of culture and the constant interplay within and through different cultural modes that do not allow a simplistic unidimensional conceptualization of the phenomenon. There is not only one Yugonostalgia, but rather different “Yugonostalgias” each time bringing forth their temporal constructive nature and political utilization even within the same nation-state.

No matter whether they be national, local or city museums, they all have in common the re-conceptualization of their objectives, as well as changes to their organizational structure, in accordance with a newly defined role for the museum in society, its mission and vision, with new techniques and technologies of protection, and a variety of new ways to present the cultural heritage. The Historical Museum of Serbia was established in 1963 as the Museum of the First Serbian Uprising. The basic fund of this newly established museum was created from the objects taken over from the History Collection of the National Museum in Belgrade. There were several reasons why the Serbian and Yugoslav political elites of the time wanted to establish a controlling connection with the national past prior to World War Two and the socialist revolution of the Yugoslav peoples. Above all, the fact that the insurgent and revolutionary discourse of that past was singled out suggested the idea that within the concepts of class struggle and revolution, the elite was looked for an acceptable and thus controllable element of nationalism.

MARIJA VASILJEVIĆ MARIJA RISTIĆ, KASTRATOVIĆ VESELINKA CUKIĆ, RADOVAN BELGRADE 2018 I THE DAY WORTH A CENTURY – 1 XII 1918 Title of Original in Serbian ДАН ВРЕДАН ВЕКА – 1. XII 1918. 4 5 ON THE REASONS FOR AN EXHIBITION ABOUT THE CREATION OF YUGOSLAVIA The main reason for the exhibition The Day Worth a Century is the centenary of the Yugoslav unification, i.e. the formal act of proclamation of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, which falls on 1 December 2018. As one of the few institutions that still bear the name of the former state in their own name, the Museum of Yugoslavia has a duty to adequately mark the cente- nary of the formation of that state. In addition to the exhibition, the centenary is to be marked with a conference entitled The Musealization of Yugoslavia – Free- zing or Renegotiating Shared Heritage, which is to take place on 2-3 Decem- ber 2018. At this moment in time, twenty years after its founding, the Mu- seum of Yugoslavia is undergoing a process of rethinking its place and role; conception and systematization of collections; redefining its vision and attract- ing new audiences. The museum was created with the intention of safeguarding the collections of two institutions: the Memorial Center ‘Josip Broz Tito’ and the Museum of the Revolution of Nations and Nationalities of Yugoslavia, both of which were seen as relics of an obsolete ideology in the early 1990s. For several years, the Museum barely survived in conditions that were hardly adequate to secure its operation. Although various programmatic texts state that the Muse- um’s task is to study Yugoslavia from its formation to its dissolution, it has always been clear that the limitations of its collections and the strong memorial aspect of the building that houses it make it primarily a museum of socialist Yugoslavia.

Centre on Migration, Policy and Society Working Paper No. 150
Centre on Migration, Policy and Society Working Paper No. 150 University of Oxford, 2020 Nonaligned Mobilities and the Post-Yugoslav Political Imaginary Helena Ratté WP-20-150 COMPAS does not have a centre view and does not aim to present one. The views expressed in this document are only those of its independent author Abstract From the First Non-Aligned Conference in Belgrade in 1961 to the dissolution of Yugoslavia in the early 1990s, Yugoslavs played a major role in the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM). This coalition of developing nations sought agency in international affairs to elude the economic, political, and cultural domination of colonial and Cold War superpowers. I examine the Yugoslav case to demonstrate how the official politics of friendship materialized as people, objects, and infrastructures moved across the nonaligned world. Arguing that these mobilities were integral to Yugoslavia’s internal political project and post-war international identity, I examine the interplay of solidarity and self-interest, attending to actors’ genuine aspirations without losing sight of colonial epistemologies that dogged ‘East-South’ collaborations. The simultaneous undoing of Yugoslav socialism and nonalignment in the 1990s produced new, injurious (im)mobilities in Yugoslavia (as elsewhere) that were symbolic of the region’s demotion in global geopolitical hierarchies. Recent attempts to deploy the memory of nonaligned ‘movements’ in museum exhibitions in the Yugoslav successor states inform an anthropology of post- socialist malaise and contribute to the literature examining invocations of the social and ideological forms of the past after the formal decline of state socialism. Author: Helena Ratté, [email protected] Keywords: socialist mobilities, Non-Aligned Movement, Cold War, Yugoslavia, ‘Third World’, politics of solidarity, (post-)socialism, memory, borders, entrapment 2 Introduction In March of 2019, an exhibition entitled Southern Constellations: Poetics of the Nonaligned opened at the Museum of Contemporary Art Metelkova in the Slovenian capital.

National Museums and Nation-Building in Europe 1750–2010
NATIONAL MUSEUMS AND NATION-BUILDING IN EUROPE 1750–2010 Europe’s national museums have been at the centre of on-going nation-making processes, since their creation. These museums have successfully negotiated conflicts and contradictions to obtain the support of citizens and taxpayers, domestic and foreign visitors, scientists, art connoisseurs, and policy makers. National Museums and Nation-building in Europe 1750–2010 assess the national museum as a manifestation of cultural and political desires, rather than a straightforward representation of the historical facts of a nation. Examining the degree to which national museums have created models and representations of nations, their past, present and future, this book proceeds to assess the consequences of such attempts. Revealing how different types of nations and states – former empires, monarchies, republics, pre-modern, modern or post-imperial entities – deploy and prioritise different types of museums in their making, it constitutes the first comprehensive and comparative perspective on national museums in Europe and their intricate relationship to the making of nations and states. Peter Aronsson is a historian and held a chair in Cultural Heritage and Uses of the Past at Linköping University. He has co-edited National Museums: New Studies from around the World (Routledge, 2011) and Performing Nordic Heritage (2013).
