Abstract
Inspired by the spatial turn in cultural studies, numerous concepts for the analysis of Eastern Europe in the 20th century emerged from the turn of the millennium onwards, of which Alexander V. Prusin’s Borderlands, Mark Leven’s Rimlands and Timothy Snyder’s Bloodlands are compared with one another. The paper aims to answer the question of whether and how these concepts can be made fruitful for historical scholarship, especially for the study of mass violence, occupation rule, and for a comparison of dictatorships.
