Montage space
In this author's reply, we outline the four commentaries on our article and consider them as interpretations of the same relational story: part of the montage. By intersplicing the four commentaries with extra scenes from ‘Montage Space’, we explore again the riverine, more-than-dry, and more-than-human that both Koch and Squire choose to take downstream, the human land grab that Miller recenters, and the paradox existing between the material geo…
Montage space
This article extends work in human geography on thinking space relationally and topological space, arguing for a relational conceptualization of space that employs montage in small seemingly confined spaces to tell big relational stories. Empirically it explores a micronation projected onto watery western Balkan no-man's [sic] land and reveals an exploitation of Balkan history and geography that underpins perceptions of the southeast European pen…

Once Within Borders
Graphic Geopolitics
Joe Sacco is best known for works that blend journalism with the format and structure of comic books. Sacco’s prior work has considered themes of political conflict, legacies of violence, and marginalization across a range of geographic contexts, including Bosnia, the Middle East, and the United States. This interview, conducted by the authors with Joe Sacco on 16 November 2015, explores these and other themes in an attempt to situate the positio…
Unity Amid Barbed Wire
This article examines how the recent European response to Syrian refugees was shaped by and remains closely entwined with the Europe Union's reaction to asylum-seekers since the 1990s. The wars in Bosnia and Kosovo led to the expanded use of barriers to entry, temporary forms of protection and coerced refugee returns. These policies have undermined Europe's humanitarian obligations to vulnerable migrants. European policies have also failed to sig…
Reading Gerard Toal and Carl T. Dahlman's Bosnia Remade
Bosnia Remade
This book is an authoritative account of ethnic cleansing and its partial undoing in the Bosnian wars from 1990 to the present. The book combines a bird's-eye view of the entire war from onset to aftermath with a micro-level account of three towns that underwent ethnic cleansing and later the return of refugees. Through the lens of critical geopolitics, which highlights the power of both geopolitical discourse and spatial strategies, the book foc…

Iraq
Detour to Europe
An American geographer with extensive field and research experience in Southeast Europe examines the implications of "enlargement fatigue" for Southeast European states aspiring to EU accession. He argues that progress toward EU enlargement into Southeast Europe and further integration through the EU Constitution is no longer restricted to internal (intra-EU) dynamics of widening and deepening, but rather must be complemented by an "external dyna…
Post-domicide Bosnia and Herzegovina
Critical geopolitics seeks to deconstruct the constructed objectifications of places as ‘territory’ or ‘homeland’ in realist and nationalist geopolitical discourse by remembering the messy spatiality of places as locations of human life and dwelling. This paper considers the Bosnian war and the international community's effort to reverse ethnic cleansing from a critical geopolitics perspective. Developing analysis around the notion of ‘home’, it …
The ‘West Bank of the Drina’
The Bosnian war was driven by fantasies of geopolitical and demographic engineering which led to ethnic cleansing and the separation of Bosnia's ethnic qua national communities from each other. The post‐war peace opened up the possibility of returns, most especially the politically sensitive cross‐boundary return of Bosniaks to their old homes in Republika Srpska and Serbs to the residences in Bosnian Federation. This article considers one respon…
Bosnia's Third Space? Nationalist Separatism and International Supervision in Bosnia's Brčko District
This article analyses how the strategic Bosnian locality of Brčko emerged as a distinctive geopolitical space during the post-war period. This resulted from the struggle between separatist nationalisms and the international community over the status of displaced persons in Bosnia, but this struggle played out differently in the municipality of Brčko as its status was unresolved at Dayton and for years afterward. Post-war nationalist rivalry to de…
Broken Bosnia
The Dayton Peace Accords brought the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina to an end but left ethnonationalism undefeated and the country divided. The Accords legitimized the wartime entity Republika Srpska, created by ethnic cleansing, yet offered the possibility of reversing ethnic cleansing with Annex VII, which declared the right of those displaced to return to their prewar homes. Implementing Annex VII across ethnonationalist-dominated localities wa…

The Effort to Reverse Ethnic Cleansing in Bosnia-Herzegovina
Two American-based geographers examine the international community's efforts to reverse ethnic cleansing in Bosnia-Herzegovina since the end of the war in 1995. The paper, based on extensive field work and semi-structured interviews, first examines the geography of the nearly one million refugees and internally displaced persons who have returned to their pre-war domiciles in Bosnia-Herzegovina. They then identify and discuss limits to the revers…
Turkey's Accession to the European Union
An American geographer specializing in southeast Europe and the Middle East examines Turkey’s prospects for membership in the European Union, a process that recently received a positive recommendation by the European Commission. Of particular importance in the debate over Turkish accession are claims that cultural differences divide Europe and Turkey, and overshadow both their shared history and practical economic and geopolitical considerations.…
Reading geopolitics beyond the state
This essay explores organizations in civil society as constituting an important sphere of social action in which alternative geopolitical worldviews are produced and disseminated beyond the state. The authors discuss the conceptual relationship between non-governmental organizations and the geopolitics pursued by states and also develop an appropriate methodological program to investigate organizational geopolitics. This is accomplished by employ…

The Political Geography of Kurdistan
A U.S. geographer specializing in Kurdistan surveys that stateless region's complex historical, ethnographic, and cultural elements. Of particular interest is an analysis of the situation of the Kurds in each of the four major countries in which their homeland is found—Turkey, Iran, Iraq, and Syria—and where they comprise roughly 8-20 percent of each country's total population. The study is based on recent field work, interviews with numerous Kur…
