Patriotism and cosmopolitanism in intellectual discourse: Pescanik and Nova srpska politicka misao
View through CrossRef
Rather than being just abstract notions scholars write about, patriotism and
cosmopolitanism are used by social actors in ongoing social life. Whether
employed to name ?us? and exalt the values of one?s own group, or to name
?them? and stigmatize what the opponents stand for, the two terms have long
served as potent discursive weapons in the struggle for various kinds of
power in Serbia. While they retain some significance to this day, the peak of
their intensive and consequential employment in public discourse occurred
between 2005 and 2010. In this paper we aim to reconstruct the symbolic
battles over the foundations of Serbian political community, based on
critical discourse analysis of the discursive material produced by
intellectuals and made public via Pescanik and Nova srpska politicka misao
media outlets.
