While I started to read about topic of my research, I just found some interesting stuff about mobility of cultural ideas, people, cultural cooperation and culture on its own. it seems that this topic is still pretty “hot and sexy” in Europe. A lot of organizations and experts are investigating about inter-cultural cooperation, cultural differences, culture and conflict prevention.
Since I will try to do some research in one or two of Scandinavian countries I found one very interesting piece of work from COE Council For Cultural Co-Operation about Finland and Barents region.

Another one also vey interesting about the role of culture in conflict prevention titled “Culture plays an important role in Nordic co.operation by building bridges between differences”.

Also next week I will have a meeting with sociologist Vjeran Katunaric who wrote a research about culture in conflict and peace processes in the former Yugoslavia.
