Following the fall of the Soviet Union in 1989, the borders
hitherto separating Greek culture and society from its contiguous
Balkan polities came down, and Greeks had to reorient themselves
toward their immediate neighbors and redefine their place within
Europe and the new, more fluid global order. Projecting the
political foresight and mustering the modernization policies to
succeed in such an undertaking turned out to be no small feat,
especially as the regional conflicts that had lain dormant during
the Cold War were revived. Synthesizing the cultural, political,
and historical into a sophisticated, interdisciplinary analysis,
this innovative study untangles the prolonged 'historical moment'
in which Greece and Europe were effectively held hostage to events
in the Balkans - just at the time when both hoped to serve as the
region's welcoming hosts.
