about


My 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 current 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.

Whilst in the middle of a pandemic,  I am a Visiting Fellow at the University Sacro Cuore (Milan, Italy) under the supervision of Prof. Marco Lombardi.

​Covid-19 : pour une mémoire ordinaire de l’extraordinaire

En raison de la pandémie mondiale de Covid-19, la majorité de l’humanité est appelée à pratiquer une forme de confinement et fait face à la réduction de ses libertés individuelles. C’est pourquoi, nous, historien·ne·s, sociologues et archivistes, appelons les particuliers, les institutions et les pouvoirs publics à conserver des archives sur cet évènement qui rompt avec le quotidien des sociétés industrialisées à l’échelle planétaire. Son analyse doit mettre en lumière des «vies minuscules», d’ordinaire invisibles, mais qui participent à la grande histoire des sociétés humaines. (Read more)

  Europeanisation and memory politics in the Western Balkans
(co-edited with Tamara Trost)
Palgrave Macmillan  (2020)

​


This volume explores how the process of European integration has influenced collective memory in the countries of the Western Balkans. In the region, there is still no shared understanding of the causes (and consequences) of the Yugoslav wars. The conflicts of the 1990s but also of WWII and its aftermath have created “ethnically confined” memory cultures. As such, divergent interpretations of history continue to trigger confrontations between neighboring countries and hinder the creation of a joint EU perspective. In this volume, the authors examine how these “memory wars” impact the European dimension - by becoming a tool to either support or oppose Europeanisation. The contributors focus on how and why memory is renegotiated, exhibited, adjusted, or ignored in the Europeanisation process.
