Belgrade, Serbia
I am a teacher and a scholar of Peace and Conflict Studies & Memory Studies. I am interested in comparative conflict studies, memory politics, memory activism and memory in protest. My current project looks at alternative commemorative events and alternative calendars. I study those in Serbia, Israel-Palestine and other places, tracing joint political action. I have extensive field work experience in Serbia, Kosovo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Israel, Palestine.
The Center for Comparative Conflict Studies (CFCCS) is a research and educational center. Our aim is to offer a space in which scholars, students, educators, practitioners and activists can engage in the study of the dynamics of conflicts in a comparative framework. While most scholars tend to exceptionalize the conflicts they study, our aim is to work within a comparative framework that highlights broader dynamics of societies in conflict. Our interest and projects are focused on the conflicts in the successor states of the former Yugoslavia and on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as well as other conflicts worldwide. http://cfccs.org
