Description
I am a cultural studies scholar interested in heritage-making and memory-work, in relation to authorized institutions to it, but also to access and expression by minority groups. In my research I focus on nationalism, ethnicity and identity, collective memory, anti-Semitism and the Holocaust. Since now, my academic interests have been interdisciplinary, seeking to understand both the state-sponsored structures of heritage responsible for heritage production and the social practices of heritage. My research broadly inspects what, how and why heritage knowledge is created, shaped, managed, communicated and consumed in the public realm.
