Osservatorio Balcani e Caucaso, Rovereto (TN).

This volume collects the contributions to the international conference Bad Memories. Sites, symbols and narrations of the wars in the Balkans organised by Osservatorio Balcani e Caucaso1. Thanks to funding from the European Union and from the Autonomous Province of Trento, we discussed the issue of war in Europe moving from the analysis of the places of memory of World War II in former Yugoslavia. This study led to the documentary Circle of Memory and to the conference held on 9th November 2007, in Rovereto, Italy.
