The Baltics as an Intersection of Civilizational Identities
Vytautas Magnus University, Kaunas, Lithuania
June 11-14, 2009

This region has been home for Jewish, Christian, Muslim, and modern Western cultures. The Baltic, unthinkable without and inseparable from its German, Scandinavian, Russian, Jewish, and Polish legacies, is a perfect place to analyze diversity in small countries at the beginning of the twenty-first century.

Baltic studies are considered as a particular historical, political, linguistic, social, cultural and ideological contact zone where the meanings of identities, languages, and relationships are renegotiated.
