His work investigates how media shapes democratic processes, analyzes power structures in contemporary art through post-aesthetic frameworks, and explores philosophical underpinnings of communication. With roots in literary deconstruction, his scholarship bridges historical perspectives with current challenges in digital media landscapes, emphasizing the role of critical theory in understanding modern societal transformations. His recent publications (2020-2024) demonstrate sustained interdisciplinary engagement across democracy studies, political narratology, and post-aesthetic theory. These works reveal consistent thematic threads connecting media philosophy, political communication, and aesthetic critique, particularly examining how digital platforms reshape democratic discourse and how power operates through contemporary art forms. The publications reflect deep integration of literary theory with political philosophy, showing evolution from classical textual analysis toward modern media ecology concerns.

Aleksandar Bošković serves as a Lecturer in Bosnian-Croatian-Serbian language at Columbia University's Department of Slavic Studies. His academic profile centers on Russian and Eastern European Modernist literature, Yugoslav and Post-Yugoslav Studies, and Balkan Studies, with methodological grounding in Comparative Literature, Critical Theory, and Visual Studies. Bošković specializes in avant-garde literature and experimental artistic practices, particularly through comparative media analysis. His current research project examines negation practices across literature, film, visual arts, and radio in former Yugoslavia in relation to the concept of value. He contends that Yugoslav Zenithism's legacy must be understood as "conceptually unconscious" of socialist Yugoslavia's experimental art, and that negation practices are fundamentally linked to value systems (symbolic, economic, social, and political). This perspective positions communal responsibility, rather than identity, as the cornerstone for collective futures in post-Balkan and European contexts. His publications consistently engage with avant-garde movements through theoretical frameworks bridging historical analysis and critical theory. Recent co-edited works like Zenithism: A Yugoslav Avant-Garde Anthology (2023) demonstrate his commitment to recovering experimental cultural narratives while revealing how negation mechanisms operate across artistic media to redefine value systems. Bošković's scholarly contributions have been recognized through competitive fellowships: Collegium de Lyon Fellowship (2019-2020) Michael I. Sovern/Columbia Affiliated Fellowship at the American Academy in Rome (2023-2024) His current Rome fellowship advances research on negation and value in Yugoslav experimental art, while public records indicate no active graduate student advising. His work remains anchored in textual and theoretical analysis of avant-garde movements, with implications for understanding contemporary European communal formations beyond identity politics.
