When it was incorporated into the Greek state in 1912, Greek
Macedonia constituted a mosaic of populations who spoke different
languages and shared different cultures and religions. The Greek
state, the local authorities and the local intelligentsia strove to
achieve the ethnic and cultural assimilation of all these
populations -- in the end, with varying degrees of success. Long
the site of fierce nationalist activity, Macedonia is a revealing
microcosm of the ethnic divides that resist the homogenizing
tendencies of nation-states throughout the world.
This timely and interdisciplinary book brings together the work of
specialists in various fields to spotlight the cultural processes
of assimilation that have taken place in Greek Macedonia since
1912. It sheds new light on the old and complex socio-historical
roots of this hotly contested area and of the Balkans in general,
and will serve as a model for future studies on nationalism, ethnic
identity and cultural heritage.
