The workshop will gather early to mid-career researchers from different disciplinary backgrounds to present and discuss ongoing work on the materiality and heritage of modern warfare and social struggles in socialist Europe.

• How do people make sense of wartime remains in today’s societies?
• How do heritage professionals mediate traces of war in community-based projects?
• How do contemporary debates such as epistemic decolonization, new authoritarianisms and nationalisms influence the relationship between heritage professionals and communities?
