Abstract
Capoeira is an Afro-Brazilian art form that combines ritual, play, music, and fighting elements. Created by slaves in the Northeast of Brazil, arguably in the seventeenth century, capoeira has been historically associated with the power of the weak. It has been used as a martial art to fight colonial oppression. During the twentieth century, it became a codified ritual that politically worked closely with the Black Marxist movement in Salvador, fighting for the recognition of the African heritage in Brazil. During the first two decades of the twenty-first century, capoeira has expanded globally. However, its spirit for liberation from dominant ideologies continues to captivate practitioners in Brazil and abroad. In this presentation, I describe how practitioners have used capoeira in Russia and how this country's practitioners have interpreted this art's rebellious spirit in a post-Soviet context. Finally, I contrast the subversive configuration of capoeira with the efforts made by dominant state powers to use martial arts in general as a political tool to show strength, authority, and subjugation of others.

Abstract

Conspiracy beliefs are often viewed as a form of psychopathology, closely linked to anxiety, paranoia, and maladaptive traits. However, recent research has brought attention to adaptive and functional aspects of conspiracy theories. I would like to present a framework for understanding conspiracy mentality (a generalized tendency to believe conspiracy theories) as a paradoxical adaptation to historical trauma. There is vast evidence that three essential aspects of historical trauma (loss of personal and collective control, status devaluation, and victimhood) constitute the key antecedents of conspiracy beliefs. Although conspiracy theories might be adaptive in times of shared trauma (e.g., war, colonization), they become maladaptive in times of peace and prosperity. Examples from research performed in Poland, Greece and other traumatized societies will be presented as evidence for such destructive consequences of historical trauma.

Michał Bilewicz is Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of Warsaw, where he established the Center for Research on Prejudice. Previously, he was a Fulbright scholar at the New School for Social Research (USA) and DAAD postdoctoral fellow at the University of Jena (Germany). In 2005-2019 he served as the Vice-President of Forum for Dialogue and since 2020 he has been chairing the Scholarly Advisory Board of this NGO focusing on raising awareness of the histories of Jews in Poland and inspiring new connections between contemporary Poland and the Jewish people. His research interests include psychological foundations of prejudice, post-genocide reconciliation, dehumanization, antisemitism, and collective moral emotions. For his research in political psychology he received the Nevitt Sanford Award of the International Society of Political Psychology. His works appeared in "Political Psychology", "Memory Studies", "Psychological Inquiry" and "Journal of Personality and Social Psychology", among other journals. Recently he published the book "Traumaland" that aims to analyze the traumatic sources of social, political and psychological specificity of Polish society.

Abstract
Based on the forthcoming book Peripheral Shame: Affective City and the Nation on the Margins of Post-Colonial Georgia, Tamta Khalvashi explores post-Soviet Georgia as a unique postcolonial space that gives rise to an affective condition of peripheral shame. By mixing family archives and autoethnographic reflections with traditional fieldwork material, she follows glimpses of this shame in various urban settings, from the monuments on the move to indebted houses or from unburied bodies of Soviet mass killings to awkward coexistence of different religious and ethnic groups in urban courtyards of Batumi on the western edge of Georgia. Khalvashi offers a new way of conceiving shame, not just as a feeling of stratified geopolitical, social, or personal relations but as an impulse to straddle with or repair ongoing peripheral frictions. She thus approaches shame as a productive feeling that gives rise to inconvenient coexistence, which is the only way to live and survive on the margins of the postcolonial world.
Bio
Tamta Khalvashi is a professor of Anthropology and the Head of the PhD Program of Social and Cultural Anthropology at Ilia State University in Georgia. She obtained her PhD in Anthropology from Copenhagen University (2015).

It is our pleasure to invite you to another seminar in the Center for Research on Social Memory Seminar series. This time we will meet to discuss the newly published "The Rescue Turn and the Politics of Holocaust Memory" (Wayne State University Press 2024) with Sarah Gensburger, Ido de Haan, Naum Trajanovski, and Zofia Wóycicka.
🗓 The seminar will take place online, 12 November at 9:30am CET.

In the last two decades, the topic of help given Jews during the World War II has experienced an extraordinary boom in Europe and beyond. Stories of the rescuers have been adapted into books, films, public commemorations, and museums. Yet, emphasis on the uplifting narratives often obscures the history of violence and complicity with Nazi policies of persecution and mass murder. This roundtable will discuss the (mis)uses of the Righteous, deliberated in local, national, and transnational contexts. Starting point for the discussion is the edited volume The Rescue Turn and the Politics of Holocaust Memory (Wayne State University Press, 2024). Participants of the debate will be Sarah Gensburger, Ido de Haan, Naum Trajanovski and Zofia Wóycicka.

Abstract
Poles tend to believe that, when it comes to the Holocaust, they were bystanders only. For decades, scholarship supported this notion. In a similar vein, there is an assumption in research that Polish bystanders did not pass on any knowledge about the Holocaust, certainly not under state Socialism. This article addresses both of those ideas, revealing that detailed knowledge about the Holocaust not only existed but was passed on from the generation of witnesses to the first postwar generation. Moreover, it demonstrates how, in the process of this transmission of knowledge, the position of a bystander was developed.
This paper spotlights the Alert of Victory, a 1965 reconnaissance organised by the Polish Scouting and Guiding Association. During the Alert, young people identified sites of fighting and suffering, and interviewed local witnesses about Nazi crimes.
Focusing on reports from this reconnaissance in south-eastern Poland, this paper comments on the shape of the vernacular, communicative memory of the Holocaust as it existed in the mid-1960s. It establishes that details of mass killings in the spring and summer of 1942 were widely known and communicated, as was some information about the camp system. It suggests that some knowledge about Polish co-participation in the killings, the denunciation of Jewish Poles and the looting of their property was suggested to the scouts. Finally, this paper establishes how the explosive potential of such knowledge was dismantled in the space of testimony. Through maintaining Jews in the position of the national Other, and strategic use of passive voice and omission, a palatable version of the war past was devised and the figure of a passive, blameless bystander was called to into being

Political and Cultural Mythologies of Post-Soviet Sovereignty

Join us for open seminar of the POSTCOLONIAL PERSPECTIVES - POSTDEPENDENCE ENTANGLEMENTS series!
To this day, the following explanatory scheme has become widespread in public discussions of the collapse of the Soviet Union: the dissolution of the USSR in 1991 was the disintegration of an empire, but Russia remained an empire in many ways and therefore retained its aggressive essence. This scheme seems to me too reductionist. It is based on a simplistically conceptualized postcolonial theory, which assumes that the collapse of a colonial empire occurs because of an enslaved nation's struggle for freedom. The collapse of the Soviet Union was not like this. The new states on the ruins of the USSR emerged not as a result of the struggle of enslaved peoples, but as a result of the crisis of central power. We could now discuss in what ways the new political elites of the former “union republics” -- and especially Russia -- reproduced the Soviet notion of sovereignty, and what new elements were included in this notion. In my paper, I hope to discuss the cultural and political mythologies of sovereignty that have proliferated in the public rhetoric and Russian language literature of the “perestroika” period and in Russia in the 1990s.
Ilya Kukulin is a literary critic, cultural historian, and cultural sociologist. Currently, he is a research fellow at the Amherst Center for Russian Culture.

Author's bio:
Alima Bissenova is an Associate Professor of Anthropology at Nazarbayev University. She specializes in urban anthropology, anthropology of Islam, postcolonial studies, and intellectual history. She has published her work in English and Russian in the journals Religion, State, and Society, Europe-Asia Studies, AB Imperio, Novoe Literaturnoe Obozrenie, Sotsiologiya Vlasti.
About the book:
This collection is an attempt to form a new post-colonial agenda, in which we, seven Kazakhstani authors, are trying to rethink and theorize our current state from the position of our own locality and develop a “local” point of view on the most pressing issues of “our post-coloniality” - a point of view that would be pronouncedly local but, at the same time, global – connected with the universal post-colonial experience. We believe that the concept of “place” is very important for describing the states of coloniality and postcoloniality, as well as for describing the knowledge that we produce in this collection, knowledge that is socially and locally “situated”, to use Donna Haraway’s term . The connection with the place, on the one hand, shapes our position, and on the other hand, leaves its own unique imprint on the situation of post-coloniality that we describe. On the one hand, living in Kazakhstan, we, as citizens of a new state that was born after the collapse of the Soviet Union, are already in some way “post-colonial” - it would seem that we can articulate our own agenda for ourselves, we are given the freedom to represent ourselves at the international arena. However, on the other hand, we are very dependent on global markets, on regional military blocs and, no less important, we continue to be under pressure from the ideological structures and hierarchies of colonialism, both from the former metropole and from new metropolitan centers in Europe and North America. If we add to this economic (but not yet ideological) pressure from China, then we can say that because we are in such an inter-imperial post-colonial zone our subjectivity is limited. Perhaps it is precisely because of this limitation that the desire to “declare oneself” and formulate one’s own separate position is felt very strongly - we are just learning to “live for ourselves” and “understand ourselves” from the point of view of our own place and our own interests. We have long been the object of external modernization and industrialization projects, "learning" from advanced countries, gaining experience, including post-colonial experience. As the heroine of Aliya Kadyrova asks, sitting at one of the conferences on post-coloniality in Central Asia in Moscow: “How long can you talk about post-coloniality when you can live it here right now?” (Chapter V). Without exception, all of the authors of the collection really "live through" their own post-coloniality, while simultaneously reflecting on it. All seven authors of this collection have good research on this aspect of our culture, and it is time to present them to the interested reader - to contribute to the discussion about “our post-coloniality” and, perhaps, to find a way out of its labyrinths.

It is our pleasure to invite you to a seminar with Katarzyna Wojnicka (University of Gothenburg) on the topic of European queer memorials. The meeting will be moderated by Joanna Wawrzyniak.

The main aim of my study is to investigate the unique, European character of queer memorials understood as “(…) heritage sites that honor gender and sexual minorities, [which] represent communities that have often been excised in dominant public narratives” (Orangias et al. 2018: 705–706) that are located in 20 European cities. European queer memorials started to be incorporated into the public spaces of Western European cities in the 1980s and play an important role in memorizing LGBTQIA+ citizens. The project is based on the findings from an ethnographic research project “European queer memorials: from Homomonument to the HBTQ+ monument in Göteborg” funded by Adlerbertska Foundation (2023). Methodologically, it is a multiple case study (Yin 2018) where several qualitative research methods such as a) mapping of existing queer memorials in Europe, b) ethnographic observations on-site combined with informal interviews; c) production and analysis of visual materials (photos of selected monuments). To shed light on the nature of contemporary queer memorials in Europe intersectional approach (Crenshaw 1998, Hill Collins & Bilge 2016) will be utilized. This perspective allows sensitizing the research to the sexuality, gender, citizenship, and social class perspectives. In this case, it will be applied in the analysis of the investigated phenomena to capture the development of ideas regarding who and how is supposed to be memorized and represented in European queer memorials.
Katarzyna Wojnicka is an Associate Professor of Sociology at the Department of Sociology and Work Science at the University of Gothenburg. Her main fields of research are critical men and masculinities scholarship, migration, and social movements studies. She is one of the editors-in-chief of NORMA: International Journal for Masculinity Studies. Previously she had worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Gothenburg, the University of Leeds, and the Humboldt University of Berlin. Her work has been published, among others, in Men and Masculinities, the International Journal of Qualitative Methodology, Social Movement Studies, Qualitative Research, and the Gender, Work and Organization. Currently, she is involved in research projects on fathers’ activism in Europe, single migrant men, transnational abortion activism and European queer memorials.
