Za kratek čas večen spomenik. Spomeniki Stalinu in njihovo uničenje. : spomeniki Stalinu in njihovo uničenje.

Rakovec, Veronika (author), Mahnič, Katja (mentor)

V zaključni seminarski nalogi analiziram problematiko postavljanja in uničenja Stalinovih spomenikov. Najprej predstavim obdobje, v katerem so te spomenike postavljali ter nakažem, da so kasneje ti spomeniki zaradi lastnosti totalitarnega režima, na katerega je bil vezan njihov nastanek, obravnavani kot konfliktna dediščina in so bili zato v veliki meri porušeni ob menjavi oblasti. Ugotovitve apliciram na primer Stalinovega spomenika na Letnem bregu v Pragi in danes na tem mestu stoječe skulpture Metronom.

Abstract

In my undergraduate thesis, I analyze the issue of erecting and dismantling monuments, focusing on a period when these monuments were prominently established. I demonstrate that, due to certain characteristics of the totalitarian regime with which they were associated in question, these monuments are regarded as conflict heritage and are often torn down following a change in power. As a case study, I examine the monument to Stalin on Letná Hill in Prague and the Metronome sculpture that stands there today.
