The Faculty of Philosophy of the University of Priština in Kosovska Mitrovica organizes an international scientific conference History, Culture, Identity (IKI 2024) to be held in Kosovska Mitrovica оn October 17–19, 2024, under the auspices of the Ministry of Culture, the Ministry of Education and the Office for Kosovo and Metohija of the Republic of Serbia. The conference aims to discuss, elucidate, explore, and problematize various issues within the domains of history, culture, and identity through an interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approach (incorporating insights from linguistics, literature, history, art history, philosophy, psychology, pedagogy, and sociology) and to examine the complex interrelations and connections between these domains and other societal phenomena.
The interdependence of historical processes, cultural changes, and mechanisms of identity development shapes how individuals interpret past events, adapt to social norms, and attain self-awareness within a socio-cultural context. Exploring identity development from contemporary perspectives and understanding how identity relates to different forms of the psychosocial functioning of an individual and society will be key objectives of psychological research. By thoroughly analyzing historical processes, events, and phenomena, the historiographical approach will answer numerous questions regarding the past, identify potential causes of current issues, and help avoid new challenges in the future. From the perspective of art history and utilizing innovative methodological approaches alongside interdisciplinary academic dialogue, art will be explored as an integration of cultural, political, and social norms, reflecting the distinct characteristics of various social groups and societies across different historical periods and regions. Sociology regards identities as individual and collective, always existing in an interplay of I – You and Us – Them dynamics, where identities represent positive attributes and stigmatizing features. The issue of identity has never been more scrutinized than in the modern era of globalization, leading to the development of comprehensive theoretical narratives with practical consequences in areas such as collective identity (e.g., nation-building, state-building) and individual identity (e.g., gender issues). In an era marked by identity crisis, the end of history, and the prevalence of subcultural behaviour patterns, philosophical research aims to rethink the dialectical relationship between history, culture, and identity, articulating the constants in change, the absolutes in history, and the essentials in identity. From the pedagogical theory and practice perspective, research into numerous educational concepts will contribute to developing national, cultural, scientific, humanistic, and democratic values in contemporary society, thereby enhancing the educational process. Linguistic research will focus on portraying language changes that occur over time due to the dynamic nature of societies and the current and historical events that shape them. Additionally, history, culture, and identity will be interpreted through various literary aspects, demonstrating how literary works illuminate the complexity of human experience, social norms, and individual and collective identities.
