Replaying Communism investigates 21st century media portrayals of the Communist occupation of Central and Eastern Europe (1945-1990). To do this, we combine two main approaches. First, we engage in close textual analysis of media created in former satellite states that depict life under Communist regimes. Second, we consider how fictional representations of this period coincide with the political and cultural context during the Communist occupation and today. This leads to rich debates about the collective responsibility for and reckoning with the Communist era. Our bigger aim is to de-Westernise Anglophone scholarship about media history and cultural memory concerning representations of Communist regimes.
