Offering a fresh look at the ways in which neoliberalism has
claimed to cure the Balkan region of its ethnic particularities
under the pretext of Europeanization, this book shows how the
reconfiguration of the economic, political, and cultural landscape
of the region has resulted in its functioning as Europe's
neocolony. The contributors to this volume engage in postcolonial
analysis of the Balkans' past and present coloniality by way of
interrogating race, racism, trauma, film, and global capitalism.
They challenge the idea of a United Europe that rests on the
assumption that the European Union's 'newness' represents both a
clean slate and the right to shift ownership of its colonial
histories to former colonial subjects and their national histories.
Taken as a whole, the volume seeks to transform Europe's colonial
amnesia into postcolonial awareness and to speak from within the
Balkans as a site of Europe's neocolony. As it critically
interrogates a neocolonial reconfiguration of the Balkans as a
massive social overhaul, which includes at once global integration
and local social disintegration, this book will be of interest to
those studying the region, as well as postcolonialism in general.
This book was originally published as a special issue of
Interventions: Journal of Postcolonial Studies.
