Whereas the fall of communism in 1989 was considered as a victory of democracy on authoritarism, thirty years later, the region is facing a wave of populist movements among the most virulent in Europe. How can we understand this paradox? In his book, Roman Krakovský offers a historical insight into east-central European populism.
Roman Krakovský is historian, lecturer at Geneva University, specialized on east-central Europe. Author of:
– Réinventer le monde. Le temps et l’espace en Tchécoslovaquie communiste (Publications de la Sorbonne, 2014)
– L’Europe centrale et orientale de 1918 à la chute du mur de Berlin (Armand Colin, 2018)
He has just published: Le populisme en Europe centrale. Un avertissement pour le monde ? (Fayard, 2019)

Her work focuses on the edge experience: on voices, visions, the world of the supernatural and the world of psychosis. She uses a combination of ethnographic and experimental methods to understand the phenomenology of unusual sensory experiences. Her very appreciated books are Persuasions of the Witch’s Craft: Ritual Magic in Contemporary England (1989); When God Talks Back: Understanding the American evangelical relationship with God (2012); Our Most Troubling Madness: Schizophrenia and Culture (2016) and others.
