Summary
This book takes Southeastern Europe as an ideal place to study the logic and illogic of nation-building. Focusing on Bosnian, Macedonian, Moldovan and Montenegrin nation-building after World War Two, the twenty authors of the collection discuss salient aspects of the invention, implementation, and negotiation of nationhood. They look into the role of intellectuals, the use of history, memory and popular culture, and the connections between nationalism and power struggles. A major goal of the case studies is to highlight the ambiguities, antinomies and paradoxes immanent to nation-building. Authors: Hannes Grandits, Ulf Brunnbauer, Holm Sundhausse, Husnija Kamberovic, Admir Mulaosmanovic, Ala Svet, Carna Brkovic, Dženita Sarac Rujanac, Ermis Lafazanovski, Vladimir Dulovic, Irena Stefoska, Gabriela Popa, Ludmila Cojocari, Saša Nedeljkovic, Ivona Tatarcheska-Opetcheska, Rozita Dimova, Lidija Vujacic, Virgiliu Bîrladeanu, Iva Lucic, Žarko Trajanoski.--
