Lessons from the Revolutions
of 1989 in East Central Europe
All are invited to this symposium hosted by the UW-Madison Department of German, Nordic, and Slavic (GNS). Questions explored: What lessons might be drawn—for us in the here and now—from studying the cultural space of pre-1989 (post-)totalitarian East Central Europe? How might dissidentism as practiced in that time and place help us better understand dissent as a general modern phenomenon?
