Summary/Abstract |
T
his essay is a comment on Larisa Deriglazova’s article “Time
Is Out of Joint”: EU and Russia in Quest of Themselves in
Time published above. This chiefly explains the way this text
is structured, which might otherwise look somewhat odd. Larisa
Deriglazova’s article, which served both as the reason and occasion
for writing this essay, deals with two different topics: firstly, memory
politics discourse in Russia and in the European Union over the
last decades, and, secondly, problems of modernization—from the
state of affairs proper to differences in understanding the essence
of modernization. The latter, in fact, allowed the author to merge
the two topics.
