Located in the middle of the Balkans, North Macedonia reflects the
turbulent history of the region. The country emerged from former
Yugoslavia in the 1990s without violence but struggled to achieve
international recognition due to a dispute with neighboring Greece
over its name and symbols. The name issue was resolved only in 2008
with the signature of the Prespa Agreement reviving prospects for
membership in NATO and the European Union (EU). Yet North
Macedonia’s story goes centuries back, to the Middle Ages, the
period of Ottoman Rule which lasted until 1912, and the various
reincarnations of Yugoslavia. The historical dictionary traces the
country’s past and present with a wealth of articles on issues,
events, institutions, personalities shaping political, economic and
cultural life. It looks at the majority Macedonian as well as other
ethnic communities such as the Albanians, Turks and the Roma. There
are also entries on North Macedonia’s relations with neighbors,
in history and today, as well as with global powers. This second
edition of Historical Dictionary of North Macedonia contains a
chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The
dictionary section has over 500 cross-referenced entries on
important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations,
religion, and culture. This book is an excellent resource for
students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about North
Macedonia.
