description |
This paper is based on an ethnographic study carried out during the Zagreb-
Vukovar cycling marathon to the Remembrance Day commemoration. The
commemoration of the fall of Vukovar, one of the key elements of the
Croatian narrative of the Homeland War, attracts thousands of people from
all over Croatia each year. I analyse the social production of the memory of
the fall of Vukovar, a town which experienced some of the worst destruction
during the 1991-1995 war. As a result, this paper assesses the interaction
of various arenas of memory present in Vukovar, such as political and
official discourse, commemoration, popular culture and historical narrative.
Of particular interest is the relationship between individual and collective
memory, belonging and space. |
