Abstract:
As the site of the assassination that triggered World War I and the place where the term "ethnic cleansing" was invented during the Yugoslav wars of the 1990s, Bosnia has become a global symbol of nationalist conflict and ethnic division. But as this book shows, formative contestations over the region began well before 1914, emerging with the rise of new nineteenth-century forces - Serbian and Croatian nationalisms as well as Ottoman, Habsburg, Muslim, and Yugoslav political movements - that claimed this province as their own.
