Dubravka Đurić’s collection of poetry, The Politics of Hope (After the War), features a selection of works dating from 1982 to 2024. The anthology is edited and translated into English by Biljana D. Obradović, with an introductory foreword authored by Charles Bernstein. Đurić’s book received prestigious recognition from the North American Society for Serbian Studies (NASSS) in 2024 for its exceptional cultural achievement, while, in his review, Mark Wallace argues that it is one of Southeast Europe’s most important poetic events. Drawing mainly on poststructuralism, Đurić’s poetry employs experimental structures, multilingual elements, and the interplay of poetic, prose, and visual forms to explore the fragility of form, language, names, and identities; the blurring of boundaries between diversities; and the fractures and tensions of post-Yugoslav and transnational crises. It is also a brilliant act of resistance against traditional forms and meanings, demanding focused agency from the reader. Building on the critique of conceptual and language poetry, I will address language as a locus of identity and conflict; experimental poetics as a form of political expression; art as a venue for resistance and introspection; post-Yugoslav discourse and its wider implications; and the crises of displacement and environmental degradation.
