This book explores the transnational set of practices connecting journals with other media in the mid-1980s, disseminating the idea of Central Europe simultaneously in East and West.

Proponents of a distinct cultural profile for these countries have used Central European to challenge the geo-political label of Eastern Europe. This book explores the transnational practices connecting journals with other media in the mid-1980s, disseminating the idea of Central Europe simultaneously in East and West. It employs new methodologies, such as GIS-mapping visualization, to reposition the political-cultural journal as a central node in a larger cultural system. However, the liberal humanist philosophy that Central Europe once evoked has been replaced by an economic liberalism that has led to neoliberal policies and practices. The author traces the concept's trajectory into the present day, examining its material and intellectual traces in the postcommunist landscape. She also explores how the current use of transnational, web-based media follows the logic and practice of an earlier, dissident generation of writers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 482g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 165 x 236 x 17 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9786155053290                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JessieLabov","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44095350374650,"sku":"9786155053290","price":53.31,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/5d09068bfd1e2e1ed880ee12e78cefcc.jpg?v=1624669380","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/transatlantic-central-europe-contesting-geography-and-redifining-culture-beyond-the-nation","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
