Looking into the intricate relationship between nationalism, national identity, and conflict, this book offers a comparative approach to understanding the enduring tensions in Southeast Europe. Alexis Heraclides examines the complex dynamics of five nations – Albanians, Bulgarians, Greeks, Macedonians, and Turks – and four key axis of conflicts: Greece and Turkey, Greece and Macedonia, Bulgaria and Macedonia, and Greece and Albania.
Through in-depth analysis, the Heraclides explores how historical narratives and the denial of other's identities fuel protracted rivalry and hinder conflict resolution in the region. From the roots of national identity formation to the manifestations of "us" versus "them" mentalities, this work sheds light on the critical interplay between identity and foreign policy.
This study is essential for scholars and anyone seeking to understand the deep-seated nationalisms that continue to shape the political landscape of Southeast Europe.
