Inspired by popular, feminist, subaltern, and ecocritical geopolitics, Geopolitics and Culture: Narrating Eastern European and Eurasian Worlds presents new research of culture in the Eastern European context. This volume highlights the symbolic production of power, which, although located outside political institutions, engenders geopolitical boundaries and defines cultural margins. Analyzing multilingual materials such as blockbuster films, digital visuals, blogs and discussion forums, print fiction and TV series, museum exhibitions, and everyday cultural practice, this book argues for the importance of studying the links between geopolitical narratives, global and regional hierarchies, and popular cultural production. The contributors advance a decolonizing methodology, which challenges the cultural and geopolitical hierarchies inside Eastern Europe and Eurasia while also casting a critical eye on the geopolitical hierarchies of global Anglophone media cultures.
