In the current issue, several authors are concerned with history politics and education politics, i. e. with processes of politically framed historical remembrance in the public space and with history as well as general education in schools, universities, and through textbooks. The case studies concern the place and meaning of 1989 in a comparative perspective (Bogdan Iacob), Holocaust remembrance in Hungary (Ferenc Laczó), educational policies in Romania (Mihaela-Viorica Ruşitoru), history-writing and textbooks in Macedonia (Irena Stefoska and Darko Stojanov), as well as the role of education in the Greek socioeconomic malaise (Michael Kelpanides †, Despoina Poimenidou, and Zoe Malivitsi). Matthias Thaden offers detailed insights into how the wars of Yugoslav dissolution were mirrored in Yugoslav radio broadcasting in (West) Berlin.
