The Culture of Non-Alignment: The Clash of Cultural and Political Narratives
Synopsis
The present publication is the final monograph of the basic research project Models and Practices of Global Cultural Exchange and Non-Aligned Movement: Research in the Spatio-Temporal Cultural Dynamics, which combined research in the fields of history, art history, design, culture, economics and sociology in an interdisciplinary and bilateral manner (bringing together researchers from Slovenia and Croatia). The research was based on the hypothesis that the accelerated process of decolonisation in the 1960s, which defined the articulation of cultural needs and cultural policies in the countries of the Non-Aligned Movement, created new institutional mechanisms and new models or practices of cultural exchange. As demonstrated through the examples selected in our three-year study, this led to effects at the level of the Non-Aligned Movement that manifested in the global cultural and artistic field. In terms of content, the monograph can be roughly divided into two parts. The first part consists of papers that provide an in-depth view of the period through the lens of economics, art and design. The second part of the monograph presents a selection of different examples of cultural and technical exchanges.
