Summer reading: Comrade by Jodi Dean

May 27, 2021 Kristen Ghodsee

This was a fun essay on political belonging, and reminded me of a conversation I had with a Bulgarian of Turkish ethnicity back in the late 1990s about the Bulgarian word for Comrade, Drugar. I wrote about this encounter for an essay in my 2011 book, Lost in Transition: Everyday Life After Communism.
