Masowe protesty po wyborach prezydenckich 2020 roku w Białorusi unaoczniły wszystkie słabości oficjalnej machiny propagandowej. W monografii scharakteryzowano narzędzia kulturowego protestu (transparenty, muzyka, sztuka uliczna, cyfrowe formy oporu), dzięki którym obnażony został deficyt prawdy w relacjach władza-społeczeństwo. Dezawuują one i ośmieszają zarówno podejmowane przez ośrodek prezydencki wysiłki organizacyjne, jak i długoterminową strategię propagandy oficjalnej. Niezależnie od politycznego rozstrzygnięcia kryzys 2020 roku będzie miał trwałe konsekwencje polityczne, społeczne, kulturowe. Jest to ważny element budowania współczesnej tożsamości białoruskiej.

This book is the first in English to explore both Belarus's complicated road to nationhood and to examine in detail its politics and economics since 1991, the nation's first year of true independence. Andrew Wilson focuses particular attention on Aliaksandr Lukashenka's surprising longevity as president, despite human rights abuses and involvement in yet another rigged election in December 2010.Wilson looks at Belarusian history as a series of false starts in the medieval and pre-modern periods, and at the many rival versions of Belarusian identity, culminating with the Soviet Belarusian project and the establishment of Belarus's current borders during World War II. He also addresses Belarus's on-off relationship with Russia, its simultaneous attempts to play a game of balance in the no-man's-land between Russia and the West, and how, paradoxically, Belarus is at last becoming a true nation under the rule of Europe's "last dictator."

Die »heldenhafte Verteidigung der Brester Festung« vom Sommer 1941 gehörte in der Sowjetunion zu den zentralen Staatsmythen und zu den wichtigsten Erinnerungsorten. Hier soll der Krieg begonnen haben, hier sollen die »ersten Ziegel im Fundament des Großen Sieges« gelegt worden sein. Die Dauer der Kämpfe wurde von realen acht auf 32 Tage aufgebauscht, für Kriegsgefangene war im Narrativ kein Raum. In diesem Buch wird die Militärgeschichte des Ereignisses neu geschrieben. Dabei werden Topoi des offiziellen sowjetischen Narrativs mit Quellenbefunden kontrastiert und dessen Entstehung und Entwicklung nachgezeichnet. Ein Schwerpunkt liegt auf dem Umgang mit den in deutsche Gefangenschaft geratenen Festungsverteidigern. Schließlich werden Geschichte und Formen der Erinnerung untersucht. Im Zentrum steht dabei die Gedenkstätte »Brester Heldenfestung« mit ihren Museen.
