Background and Objectives
This is the fourth in the series of courses under the same title Redefining Cultural Identities, organized by the Department of Culture and Communication of the Institute for International Relations, Zagreb. The courses have been held at Inter University Centre in Dubrovnik continuously from the year 2000. The first course was devoted to the Multicultural Contexts of the Central European and Mediterranean Regions, followed in 2001 by the course that dealt with the Redefinition of Cultural Identities in Southeastern Europe. The scope of the third course entitled Cultural Industries and Technological Convergence concentrated on cultural industries, technological convergence, cultural consumption and on cultural identities in the Southeastern European and Central European countries in transition.
Redefining Cultural Identities continues with this year's course entitled Managing Cultural Transitions: Southeastern Europe. The objective of this year's course is to provide an analytical insight into theoretical and conceptual issues of cultural transitions, to examine cultural policies in the context of cultural transitions and the EU integration and to examine the development of their institutional and organizational aspects. An insight into the cultural economics and cultural communication is included in the program.
