ABSTRACT The article analyses commemorative practices and public debates revolving around the local remembrance of military commander Marshal Stepa Stepanović in the Serbian town of Čačak. The geographical concept of place is used as the coming together of processes and agencies operating on different scales (local, national, transnational) and manifesting themselves through material settings around which social interactions take place. It is argued that Stepanović’s legacy served as a medium for directing how different groups within the local community processed contentious historical experiences, concurrently revealing polyphonous collective and individual interests and agencies. Ultimately, this example of local remembrance can be viewed as a microcosm of wider mnemonic dynamics in Serbian society, as well as of the influences of broader processes on locally based social relations.

在（跨）国家记忆与地方政治之间对在Čačak的StepaStepanović元帅进行纪念

摘要这篇文章分析了纪念做法和公开辩论，这些辩论围绕着军事指挥官StepaStepanović元帅在塞尔维亚Čačak镇的当地纪念而发生。地方的地理概念被用作不同规模（地方，国家，跨国）的流程和机构的汇聚，并通过发生社会互动的物质环境来体现自己。有人认为，斯蒂芬诺维奇的遗产是指导当地社区中不同群体如何处理有争议的历史经验，同时揭示复音的集体和个人利益与机构的媒介。最终，这种地方记忆的例子可以看作是塞尔维亚社会更广泛的记忆动态的缩影，
