Based on substantial fieldwork and thorough knowledge of written
sources, Xavier Bougarel offers an innovative analysis of the
post-Ottoman and post-Communist history of Bosnian Muslims. Islam
and Nationhood in Bosnia-Herzegovina explores little-known aspects
of the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, unravels the paradoxes of
Bosniak national identity, and retraces the transformations of
Bosnian Islam from the end of the Ottoman period to today. It
offers fresh perspectives on the wars and post-war periods of the
Yugoslav space, the forming of national identities and the strength
of imperial legacies in Eastern Europe, and Islam's presence in
Europe. The question of how Islam is tied to national identity
still divides Bosnian Muslims. Islam and Nationhood in
Bosnia-Herzegovina places the history of ties between Islam and
politics in Bosnia and Herzegovina in the larger global context of
Bosnian Muslims relations both with the umma (the global Muslim
community) and Europe from the late 19th century to the present and
is a vital contribution to research on Islam in the West.
