The author apologies for an error in the volume 50 issue 2 “On the Cover” text. The name of the town pictured is Pakrac (not Lipik). The corrected caption follows.
On the cover
Photo taken by Mila Dragojević: “The Future,” June 2014. This ruin of the socialist-era department store Budućnost (transl. Future) was located in Pakrac, a town in the region of Croatia near the dividing line during the Homeland War (1991–1995). This region used to be one of the most economically developed in the country, yet nearly two decades after the war had ended, it was still struggling. Even though this building has been renovated since then, this image remains as a historical document and a reminder for future generations to view with skepticism both political promises of progress and the expectations that economic, scientific, and educational advancements would inevitably bring about a more just and equal society.
