Ethno-futurism: burden and freedom

Journal of Baltic Studies, 2025, vol. 56, issue 2, 269-287

Abstract: This article examines the time-specific term ‘ethno-futurism,’ coined by the Tartu literary group Hirohall in 1989 to define their activities. It focuses on the connections between ethno-futurism and the cultural processes that have shaped Estonia’s transition period. The central question is how and in what framework ethno-futurism should be defined. This is linked to the question of the possible scope of the concept of ethno-futurism. In other words, is it a cultural phenomenon clearly delimited in space and time, or does it conceal broader features that help to describe the transition period in central and eastern Europe?
