The joint report of Kulshat Medeuova and Ulbolsyn Sandybaeva is devoted to the representation of traumatic memory in public spaces. It was justified that the discourses of trauma in Kazakhstan, as for most post-Soviet countries, are based on the themes: political repression; hunger 20-30-ies; various aspects of post-Gulag analysis (deportation, internees, victims and participants); rethinking the role of individual personalities and events in the political history of the twentieth century (December events, Alash); participation in hostilities (WWII, Afghan); environmental and technological consequences (nuclear test site, space debris); local and situational heroes.
Questions of memory, oblivion, guilt, forgiveness were raised.
Dametken Tolgambayeva has presented the report devoted to practice and places of memory of Ahmet Baitursynov and Mirzhakipa Dulatova. It is shown that the actors of memory practice are different topics, and their interests do not always coincide, sometimes they become opposite. Raised the issue of the status and status of separate places in memory of Ahmet
Baytursynov and Mirzhakyp Dulatov.
The seminar was interactive and aroused great interest among the audience. Questions were raised, opinions on reports, raised issues were raised by candidates of philosophical sciences Galiya Fazylova, Svetlana Arystambaeva.
