Politics of Identity in Post-Conflict States (eBook, PDF)

The Bosnian and Irish experience
Redaktion: Ó Ciardha, Éamonn; Vojvoda, Gabriela

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book will specifically focus on the history, politics and literature of Bosnia-Herzegovina and Northern Ireland, while making comparative reference to some of Europe's other disputed and divided regions. Using case-studies such as Kosovo and Serbia; Lithuania, Germany, Poland, Russia and Belarus; Greece and Macedonia, it examines 'space', 'place' and 'border' discourse, the topography of war and violence, post-war settlement and reconciliation, and the location and negotiation of national, ethnic, religious, political and cultural identities.
