Beyond Balkanism - The Scholarly Politics of Region Making

Zusatztext 95830558 Informationen zum Autor Diana Mishkova is Professor of History and Director of the Centre for Advanced Study, Sofia, Bulgaria. Zusammenfassung Whereas much discourse on the Balkans is from a western perspective, this book looks at the Balkans primarily inside-out, from within the Balkans towards its “self” and the outside world, where the west is important but not sole referent.
