Summary: The current document summarises key points in the conversations during the workshop “The Return of the Colonial: Understanding the Role of Eastern Europe in Global Colonisation Debates and Decolonial Struggles”, organised by Romina Istratii, Zoltán Ginelli and Márton Demeter, with the aim to extend the insights and lessons learned beyond the small circle of participants. It is hoped that it can trigger wider reflections and conversations within and outside the region known as Eastern Europe around the themes explored, and provide a roadmap for future studies and explorations. To facilitate this, the document has been structured to reflect as much as possible the discussions on the day. The following section explains some of the motivations that led to this workshop. The rest of the document is organised according to the sessions of the workshop, each concluding with a group discussion and together leading to a final roundtable at the end. The document concludes with a list of relevant bibliographic sources that were mentioned in presentations and discussions or were suggested by the participants as further study materials
