Thirty years after the greatest political, social, economic and informational changes of our time and an attempt at the integration of previously separated European societies, we do not cope only with the consequences of these changes but we are also confronted with a number of new global political, economic, ideological and migrational quakes.
90s: Scars presents the mentioned situation from the perspective of Croatia in which this period has not been systematically interpreted nor has it, due to the war and its consequences, received a complete and professional elaboration. The accompanying programmes and expert symposium offer an opportunity of a meeting of protagonists of the 90s and the new generation of scientists who are investigating this period.
