In this study of Macedonian Slavs in the Greek Civil War, the
author examines how their participation in the conflict, and the
attempts by other groups to manipulate them, gave rise to modern
issues that continue to affect politics in the region today. The
Macedonian Question has confounded academics, politicians and the
people of the Balkans since the nineteenth century. While the
countries have resolved the territorial component of the Macedonian
Question, the critical and confusing question surrounding the
ethnic and linguistic identity of the people of the region
continues to be the source of international debate. Part of the
reason for this confusion is because the history of the Macedonian
Question is shrouded in nationalist polemics. The role of the
Macedonian Slavs involvement in the Greek Civil War is particularly
contentious and embedded in nationalist polemics, which has
impacted academic inquiry. This book argues that the preponderance
of Macedonian Slavs within the communist forces during the Greek
Civil War influenced the actions of all the major actors involved,
and is a significant factor in shaping the modern Macedonian
national identity.
