The new Bosnian mosaic: identities, memories and moral claims in a post-war society

Since the violent events of the Bosnian war and the revelations of ethnic cleansing that shocked the world in the early 1990s, Bosnia has become a metaphor for the new ethnic nationalisms, for the transformation of warfare in the post-Cold War era, and for new forms of peacekeeping and state-building.

This book offers a re-examination of the Bosnian case with a 'bottom-up' perspective.

It gathers together cultural anthropologists and other social scientists to consider the specificities of the Bosnian case.
