The convenient fiction of geopolitics: rethinking 'America' in the geopolitical imagination of Yugoslav culture
The chapter combines methodological approaches of imagology, popular geopolitics and cultural studies and gives analytical overview of geopolitical imagination of US culture through the representative ‘cultural patterns’ (R. Williams) of Yugoslav culture, considering culture as ‘a whole way of life’ (R. Williams). The symbolic and factual congruence of the post World War II period and the emergence of the global popular culture in a geopolitically divided world points to the historical significance of the Cold War during which the discipline of popular geopolitics inscribed a pre-history of its own. Namely, the Cold War was a period of intense world making, world writing and world picturing of mental and moral geographies of the East and West, often identified with the ideologies of communism and capitalism. Those perceptions were not just conducted through international politics but, what was even more crucial, through the sphere of popular culture and everyday life.
