       A very interesting website is FA Failed Architecture. See, for example, the article "Mortal Cities and Forgotten Monuments" byArna Mackic."Currently these cities, once repositories of memories, have become dishonest and opaque as politicians try to keep the different ethnic groups divided via architecture. As the legibility of the history and the identities have disappeared, communication between inhabitants and the city has ceased to exist. History, symbols and memories are currently being erased in these cities by adding unfitting symbols or by removing meaningful symbols in public spaces. This has resulted in an abundance of fragmented, imaginary, self-proclaimed and self-imposed memories".https://failedarchitecture.com/mortal-cities-and-forgotten-monuments/#Monuments #Architecture #Heritage #War #Yugoslavia@histodons @academicchatter @antiquidons

       I have an increasingly horrible feeling that in the next 10-15 years we are going to see some liberal democracy turn into a Hungarian-style "illiberal democracy" (or something even much worse). Which country will be next? UK, USA, France, Germany, Spain, Italy?#Politics #Democracy #TheNewRepublic@politicaltheory @politicalscience "How Viktor Orbán Built His Illiberal State" by Zsuzsanna Szelényi (2022)."Political language is radicalized, elite polarization is toxic, political tribes are firm, the distribution of state resources is perverse, and democratic institutions are subverted."https://newrepublic.com/article/165953/viktor-orban-built-illiberal-state
