The tumultuous history of the Balkans has been subject to a plethora of conflicting interpretations, both local and external. In an attempt to help overcome the stereotypes that still pervade Balkan history, Battling over the Balkans concentrates on a set of five principal controversies from the precommunist period with which the region’s history and historiography must contend: the pre-1914 Ottoman and Eastern Christian Orthodox legacies; the post-1918 struggles for state-building; the range of European economic and cultural influences across the interwar period, as opposed to diplomatic or political intervention; the role of violence and paramilitary forces in challenging the interwar political regimes in the region; and the fate of ethnic minorities into and after World War II, particularly Jews, Muslims and Roma. In an attempt to give a voice to eminent local authors, the chapters provide samples of new regional scholarship exploring these contested issues—most of them translated into English for the first time—and are prefaced with historiographical overviews addressing the state of the debate on these specific controversies. These translations help bridge the language barriers that often separate scholarly traditions within Southeast Europe, as well as scholars in Southeast Europe and English-speaking academia. This volume will enable readers to identify common patterns and influences that characterize the writing of history in the region, and will stimulate new transnational and comparative approaches to the history of the Balkans.

The Great War had begun in the Balkans, the almost inevitable result of decades of intrigue, assassination and fratricidal conflict among a host of relatively minor nationalistic groups. In four years of seesaw combat, several local nations were recruited by the warring alliances; three were completely overrun. When the final great offensives that would end the war began on all fronts, it was only fitting that the Balkans should be the first to crack and the enemy disintegration begun there. This is the story of the crossing of broad rivers, agonizing retreats through snowy mountains and struggles in steamy, malarial backwaters. Powerful naval forces bombarded scrubby sun-baked shores, preceding amphibious assaults of a generation before the more famous D Day. Fledgling air forces shot at each other in the skies over the dusty battlefields. And common to all war stories this is a tale of misery, starvation, plague, destruction, mistreatment and death. Unfortunately, it is a story which has never been adequately told compared to other theatres of the First World War. Here in text and maps is a chronicle of a sorely misunderstood struggle, a conflict which in many ways is still unresolved.

From the assassination that triggered World War I to the ethnic warfare in Serbia, Bosnia, and Croatia, the Balkans have been the crucible of the twentieth century, the place where terrorism and genocide first became tools of policy. Chosen as one of the Best Books of the Year by The New York Times, and greeted with critical acclaim as "the most insightful and timely work on the Balkans to date" (The Boston Globe), Kaplan's prescient, enthralling, and often chilling political travelogue is already a modern classic. This new edition of Balkan Ghosts includes six opinion pieces written by Robert Kaplan about the Balkans between 1996 and 2000 beginning just after the implementation of the Dayton Peace Accords and ending after the conclusion of the Kosovo war, with the removal of Slobodan Milosevic from power.
