De Balkan, 1804-1999 : nationalisme, oorlog en de grote mogendheden

The region's history is so layered — I wonder what influenced the selection of key moments and narratives in this book.

The way the book traces the rise of nationalism over nearly two centuries made me think about current conflicts. Was there a particular story that stood out in illustrating these themes?

The book shows so many instances where external actors shaped the course of events. I’m curious if others felt this shifted their understanding of regional conflicts.
