Current Visiting Fellows

Iva Jelušić

Iva Jelušić is a visiting research fellow, spending winter semester 2023/2024 at the Centre for Southeast European Studies in Graz.

She is a post-doctoral researcher at the ERC ‘War and Fun: Reconceptualizing Warfare and Its Experience’ research project at the Christian Michelsen Institute in Bergen, Norway. In her current research she explores officially organized entertainment in the Yugoslav partisan army (1941-1945), especially partisan theater, as propaganda, art, and fun.

She completed a Master of Arts in European Women’s and Gender History at the Department of Gender Studies at the Central European University (Budapest, Hungary/Vienna, Austria) in 2015 and she holds a PhD in Comparative History from the same university (2022). Her dissertation research focuses on the development of cultural memory of the People’s Liberation Struggle in Yugoslav popular media, with particular focus on the figure of the female soldier, the partizanka.

In general, her research interests include social history, especially the politics of the past and the development of the cultural memory of World War II in Yugoslavia as well as women’s and gender history and the history of feminism in the state socialist countries of Central and Eastern Europe.
