The 3^rd Polish Conference on Memory Studies aims at presenting the results of the newest research within the field conducted by the representatives of different disciplines, such as Cultural Studies, Literary Studies, Sociology, Political Studies, History, Anthropology, and Psychology. The conference is the continuation of the previous meetings organised in Cracow in 2018 and in Warsaw in 2019. This edition focuses on the notion of (post)memory in/about Central and Eastern Europe.

We welcome the papers that focus not only on theoretical aspects of (post)memory in/about Central and Eastern Europe, but also discuss new trends and tendencies in the field and present the results of recently conducted studies. We extend our invitation to scholars representing different disciplines and research centres, including Polish scholars working abroad.

Both paper proposals and panel proposals (consisting of 3-4 speakers and a chair) should be submitted via forms available below. Deadline for submissions is 31 August 2021. Notifications of acceptance will be sent by 30 September 2021.
