aboutMy name is Ana Milosevic but the academic community knows me as
'the Monument Hunter.' From a nuclear blast zone to black magic rites’ sites, I visit unusual - and often macabre – places to study how individuals and societies mourn and commemorate. Currently, I am a Post-Doctoral Researcher at the Leuven Institute of Criminology (LINC) at the KU Leuven Faculty of Law. My research takes a bird's eye view on a wide variety of roles assigned to memorialisation processes. It zooms in on the post-terrorist memorialisation in Europe to critically examine its effectiveness for the victims, their families and survivors. I am actively working as an expert/consultant on memorialisation in transitional justice, prevention and countering of violent extremism (P/CVE) with different stakeholders: from the Radicalisation Awareness Network (EU Commission) to think tanks, victims' organisations, local and national governments. contactInauguration, Vitoria-Gasteiz, 14/02/20242023 EU remembrance day for the victims of terrorismIn conversation with the Monument Hunter - Remembering Utøyaphoto exhibition: When time stood still - Barcelona 2021on-line event: 'The efficacy of memorialisation after terrorism' |
