S2E13: What Does Yugonostalgia Even Mean?
Manage episode 277193641 series 2538033
Everybody with some kind of relationship to the Western Balkans has encountered it: Yugonostalgia. A fascinating phenomenon found among younger and older generations of Western Balkan people, and something that has been debated often. But what does the term even mean? Do people still identify as Yugoslavs, and why do they do so? Sanir and Sandro discuss their opinions on the matter, and try to put this complicated feeling into words. Was everything really better in the good old times, or should we put off those rose-coloured glasses and see Yugoslavia for what it really was? We would love to hear from you on this topic, so please let us know your opinions through social media!
