Kajet Journal on tackling the complex history and potential futures of Eastern European utopia

Kajet_journal-issue_02-publication-list-int

Kajet, a “journal of Eastern European encounters”, was founded by Petrică Mogoș and Laura Naum with the intention of breaking down the misconceptions and generalised ideas about the region. “Each issue is evocative of the socio-political and cultural realities that dominate our time and region”, the pair tells It’s Nice That. The first issue, on communities, considered the many ways communities are essential in times of unrest: via features on resistance, architecture, borders, and the counterculture. The second issue, Petrică and Laura explain, “was conceived of during strife and amnesia, uncertainty and distress”: “As we just honoured five decades since the Prague Spring – with its glimmering yet luckless hope – and as we are approaching the commemoration of three decades of post-communism, the notion of seeking an improved (read: utopian) future is for us more relevant than ever.”
