Rezensionen

"It makes an important contribution to scholarship on the religious-political aspects of the Balkan conflicts of the 1990s and their aftermath. The book can be useful for anyone wishing to better understand the intersection of religion and identity politics in the region. Even those already familiar with the countries and the issues discussed can gain further valuable insight from the articles that present in-depth exploration and case studies."
