      abstract = {This book analyzes how Second World War heritage is being  reframed in the memorial museums of the post-socialist,  post-conflict states of Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina,  and Serbia. It argues that in all three countries, a  reluctance to confront undesirable parts of their national  histories is the root cause explaining why the state-funded  Second World War memorial museums remain stuck in the  postsocialist transition. In most cases, Second World War  museums, exhibitions, and displays conceived in the  Yugoslav period have been left unchanged. However, there  are also examples where new sections were added to the old  ones and there are a small number of completely  reconceptualized permanent exhibitions. The transitional  position of the Second World War museums has made it  possible to view these institutions as historical  formations in their own right. The book will appeal to  students and academics working in the fields of heritage  and museums studies, memory studies, and cultural history  of Southeast-Europe. Natasa Jagdhuhn is a Museologist whose  research focuses on memory constructs in the successor  states of Yugoslavia, museum transformation in the  post-socialist countries of Europe, the history of  museology from a Global South perspective, and current  debates on decolonizing heritage worldwide.},
