Routledge Handbook of Balkan and Southeast European History
Disentangling a controversial history of turmoil and progress, this Handbook provides essential guidance through the complex past of a region that was previously known as the Balkans but is now better known as Southeastern Europe. They stand back from the premodern claims and recent controversies stirred by the wars of Yugoslavia's dissolution.Parts I and II explore shifting early modern divisions among three empires to the national movements and independent states that intruded with Great Power intervention on Ottoman and Habsburg territory in the nineteenth century. It gathers 47 international scholars and researchers from the region.
Part IV addresses the interwar promise and the later authoritarian politics of five newly independent states: Part III traces a full decade of war centered on the First World War, with forced migrations rivalling the great loss of life.
