En contrepied de la politique d'élargissement de l'UE dans les Balkans occidentaux, ce travail vise à explorer l'impact de la politique de cohésion de l'UE en Bosnie-Herzégovine. Dans ce pays très divisé sur base ethnique, l'objectif est de voir si l'exemple de la coopération transfrontalière est vecteur de réconciliation et d'unification en Bosnie-Herzégovine en posant la question suivante : "Dans quelle mesure la politique de cohésion de l’Union européenne favorise-t-elle une gouvernance multi-niveaux trans-ethnique en Bosnie-Herzégovine ?"

The tumultuous history of the Balkans has been subject to a plethora of conflicting interpretations, both local and external. In an attempt to help overcome the stereotypes that still pervade Balkan history, Battling over the Balkans concentrates on a set of five principal controversies from the precommunist period with which the region’s history and historiography must contend: the pre-1914 Ottoman and Eastern Christian Orthodox legacies; the post-1918 struggles for state-building; the range of European economic and cultural influences across the interwar period, as opposed to diplomatic or political intervention; the role of violence and paramilitary forces in challenging the interwar political regimes in the region; and the fate of ethnic minorities into and after World War II, particularly Jews, Muslims and Roma. In an attempt to give a voice to eminent local authors, the chapters provide samples of new regional scholarship exploring these contested issues—most of them translated into English for the first time—and are prefaced with historiographical overviews addressing the state of the debate on these specific controversies. These translations help bridge the language barriers that often separate scholarly traditions within Southeast Europe, as well as scholars in Southeast Europe and English-speaking academia. This volume will enable readers to identify common patterns and influences that characterize the writing of history in the region, and will stimulate new transnational and comparative approaches to the history of the Balkans.

This book investigates and explains the European Union’s approach to conflict resolution in three countries of the Western Balkans: Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia and Kosovo. In doing so, it critically interrogates claims that the EU acts as an agent of conflict transformation in its engagement with conflict-affected states. The book argues, contrary to the assumptions of much of the existing literature, that rather than seeking the transformation of conflicts, the EU pursues a more conservative strategy based on the regulation of conflict through the promotion of institutional mechanisms such as consociational power sharing and decentralisation.Drawing on discourse analysis of documents, speeches, and interviews conducted by the author with European Union officials and policy-makers in Brussels and the case-study countries, the book offers a theoretically grounded, methodologically rigorous and empirically detailed analysis of EU policy preferences, of the ideas that underpin them, and of how those preferences are legitimised.This book will be of key interest to scholars, students and practitioners interested in ethnic conflict and conflict resolution, the politics of the Balkans, and the external and foreign policies of the EU.

Ce livre étudie la fabrique d’une politique étrangère, celle de l’Italie dans cet étranger proche qu’est pour elle la péninsule balkanique. L’Europe du sud-est est en effet, à la fin du XIXe siècle, le principal théâtre d’une « question nationale » à laquelle l’Italie doit son existence. C’est l’entrelacs de la Realpolitik, de la cause des peuples, mais aussi des intérêts matériels des individus et des groupes impliqués dans l’expansionnisme qu’examine cet ouvrage. Le livre brosse successivement les traits fondamentaux de cette politique : d’abord l’invention d’une légitimité à guider les peuples balkaniques vers la rédemption nationale. Ensuite le choc de la réalité, celle d’une puissance faible qui doit se réfugier dans un soft-power libéral et humanitaire. Il situe ensuite les questions balkaniques par rapport au débat politique en Italie même : entre Question d’Orient, irrédentisme et colonialisme. S’intéressant aux acteurs de cette politique balkanique (savants, militants, consuls et affairistes), il apporte des éléments factuels et interprétatifs neufs sur l’impérialisme en pleine grandeur qui dessine, entre 1912 et 1915, un embryon d’empire italien en Méditerranée.
