The Ir(rational) in the Locomotion of Filmography, Theatre, Music Scene and Pop Culture as the Creation of the “New Croatian Cultural Memoryâ€
Abstract
By dealing with the examples of Croatian (pop) culture production, the paper analyzes different strategies of cultural production in relation to the previously existing cultural memory matrix (anti- fascist, fascist, Yugoslavian, nationalist...). Do such practices indeed result in the moral of the film Total Recall?References
