Abstract (may include machine translation)

This chapter deals with the role of critical, self-reflexive re-archiving of records of violent pasts in preserving and challenging the memory of mass atrocities and wars. It reflects on our archival experiment within Vera and Donald Blinken Open Society Archives. Yugoslavia Archive Project, which involved the informed and immersive re-processing of television newscasts from the period preceding, during and immediately following the wars on the territory of the former Yugoslavia (1990-1996).
