Liminal Thoughts on Balkanism, Gentrification and Nostalgia
Author's collective: Barbora Ilič (ed.), Jiří Gruber, Milica Živković, Risto Ilič a Tamara Spalajković
The book Where Them Stray Dogs At introduces a collective of authors who approach Belgrade as a conceptual starting point. While grounded in one location, the book explores the broader meanings and identities projected onto the so-called Balkans as a region. Through different approaches, the authors create a series of fragmented yet inevitably related commentaries on themes such as authenticity, migration, urban transformation, and Balkanism. The subtitle of the book hints at its transitory character, emphasizing the unaligned—almost stray—perspectives of the contributors. Reflecting on their own positionalities and the tensions between personal and collective narratives, the book connects the authors ’approaches into a layered exploration of the liminal spaces between development and decline, past and present, belonging and alienation.
