Product Description

Ethnic Cleansing in the Balkans looks at the phenomenon of ethnic cleansing in the Balkans over the last two hundred years. It argues that the events that occurred during this time can be demystified, that the South East of Europe was not destined to become violent and that constructions of the Balkans as endemically violent misses a important political point and historical point.
Carmichael provides an account of ethnic cleansing in the Balkans as a single historical phenomenon and brings together a vast array of primary and secondary sources to produce a concise and accessible argument. This book will be of interest to students and researchers of European studies, history and comparative politics.

Ethnic Cleansing in the Balkans: Nationalism and the Destruction of Tradition (Routledge Advances in European Politics) Review

Ethnic Cleansing the the Balkans is a stark picture of the horror of war. Graphic details about the recent conflict fill page after page. Ms. Carmichael pinpoints a deranged concept of nationalism as the driving force behind the "cleansing".The book was not comfortable to read. War is never very pretty, and certainly depressing. However, the book offers insights on how people behave during war, good and bad. I felt that the best chapter was the conclusion, where it was pointed out that there is a difference between a violent population and a population that is subjected to continued disruptive violent incursions. Rebecca West's Black Lamb Gray Falcon covers the history of the region in depth. This book is more of an analysis of recent events, with just enough history to set the scene.
