Identifying and explaining common views, ideas and traditions, this
volume challenges the concept of Serbian-Albanian hostility by
reinvestigating recent and historical events in the region. The
contributors put forward critically oriented initiatives and
alternatives to shed light on a range of relations and
perspectives. The central aim of the book is to 'figure out' the
problematic relations between Serbs and Albanians - that is, to
comprehend its origins and the actors involved, and to find ways to
resolve and deal with this enmity. Treating the hostility as a
construct of a long-running discourse about the Serbian or Albanian
'Other', scholars and intellectuals from Serbia, Kosovo and Albania
examine the origins, channels, agents and mediums of this discourse
from the 18th century to the present. Tracing the roots of the two
ethnic groups' political divisions, contemporary practices and
actions allows the contributors to reconsider mutually held
negative perceptions and identify elements of a common, shared
history. Examples of past and current cooperation are used to offer
a critical analysis of all three societies. This interdisciplinary
publication brings together historiographical, literary,
sociological, political, anthropological and philosophical analyses
and enquiries and will be of interest to researchers in the fields
of sociology, politics, cultural studies, history or anthropology;
and to academics working in Slavonic and East European studies.
