Long Abstract
Memory Studies is the most dynamically developing field of interdisciplinary modern studies.
New concepts appear regularly. And that requires a country and regional responses to a new level of conceptualization. This is what happened with the concept of «memory wars», and this is what happens on the current topic of memory infrastructure debates. A common hypothesis for the colleagues from the Central Asian states is the assertion that having coincidences, and a common memory infrastructure, each country has its own, distinctive ways for representing the past.
Memory Studies, или исследования памяти наиболее динамически развивающаяся отрасль междисциплинарных исследований современности. С регулярностью появляются новые концепты которые требуют своего странового, регионального варианта ответа на новый уровень концептуализации. Так произошло с концептом войн памяти, так происходит в текущей повестке споры о инфраструктурах памяти. Общей гипотезой для коллег из центральноазиатских республик является утверждение о том, что даже при совпадениях, общей инфраструктуре памяти, каждая страна может иметь свой, отличительный вариант для репрезентации прошлого.

Музееификация мечети: казахстанский дискурс публичных пространств
Paper long abstract
Музей, являются своеобразными тригерными точками государственной политики. Именно в музеях и через них утверждаются тематика, каноны, стандарты и практики демонстрации прошлого. Коллективной памяти, как динамичному процессу, зачастую тесно в формальных рамках такого музейного пространства. В докладе будет представлено как в Казахстане происходит выход культурной памяти за границы музеев, как происходит музеефикация мечетей и шире публичного пространства.
Museums are in some sort of trigger points of public policy. Through the museums and within them that the themes, canons, standards and practices of demonstrating the past are being established. Collective memory, as a dynamic process, is often confined within the formal framework of such a museum space. The report will present how the cultural memory oversteps the boundaries of museum, and how museification of the mosques takes place sensu stricto and the public space sensu lato
