Zoltán Dujisin
I am an Assistant Professor in Sociology at Corvinus University in Budapest and my research interests are sociology of expertise, sociology of journalism, memory politics and political sociology. I obtained my PhD in sociology from Columbia University in New York and was a Marie Curie Leading Fellow based in Erasmus University Rotterdam.
My research explores how claims to truth are legitimized through expertise, and the consequences of these processes for identity construction. Hence, my research project “Truth and Expertise in a Changing Europe” unfolds in two timely and contentious topics: 1) Post-communist memory politics and 2) the new information cold war with Russia.

Papers by Zoltán Dujisin
memory is fractured between East and West, a notion that contributes to the reification of states as legitimately embodying national collective memories. It does so by building on actor-centered examinations of the EU memory divide, which is manifested in a challenge to the EU’s Holocaust-centered narrative by an antitotalitarian memory regime, defined as an institutionalized network of politically driven historiographic expertise. The article shows that the antitotalitarian memory regime reflects a political culture of remembrance centered on a “politics of certainty” that disregards open historiographic disputes and contests the EU’s hitherto prevailing “politics of regret.”
