AB  - After the the Second World War, the new socialist Yugoslavia was governed by the Communist Party which split with the Cominform in 1948, causing the country to embark on a long-lasting process of forging its own version of socialism. Architectural culture had a conspicuously important role in the process of cultural legitimization of the new Yugoslav socialist ideology, tailored to fit both the internal "self-government" and the non-alignment international policy of the state. One of the most vivid examples of this newly emerged architectural culture is the Fairground Complex built in Belgrade (1953–1957). While the technical aspects of the project epitomized quite literally the socialist regimes' obsession with conquering and taming nature, which represented the echo of authentic Marxism, the huge construction of the Fairground commenced to stage a self-indulged and calculatedly constructed image of superiority of socialist Yugoslavia and its what the communist elites saw as the tremendously advanced modernization of the country and society.

AB  - Interpreting legacy as a system of signs and images, this volume questions the notions of ‘backwardness’ or ‘progress’, which undoubtedly have marked the common perception of the Ottoman and Habsburg heritage in Southeast Europe. This perception is heavily relied on the ideological and political context of its use and abuse, where a legacy, as a system of images, becomes a signifier of particular ideas and values. Interpreting the already well-known imagery of both imperial this volume is to be credited for questioning rather stereotypical interpretations of the Ottoman and Habsburg imperial legacies in Southeast Europe, generally temporalized and valued according to the barbarian versus civilized dichotomy. The role of visual culture in this representational system is tremendous, which underlines the importance of studying images and architecture as valuable historical source.
