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 is unique in
offering 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. However, the book also raises broader questions: what are the
consequences of internecine violence and how should societies
attempt to overcome them? Are the uncertainties and the
transformations of Bosnian post-war society due entirely to the
war, or are they related to wider processes encompassing
post-communist Europe as a whole? And are the difficulties
experienced by international state-building operations mainly due
to distinctive features of the local societies or are they due to
the policies promoted by the international community itself?
