Hunting and Environmental Consciousness in Late Ottoman and Habsburg Herzegovina
Hunters arrived in Ottoman-held Herze-govina from Dalmatia after 1815. With its mild winter, Herzegovina was regarded as unspoiled, full of birds and animals. After the Habsburg occupation in 1878, scientific research, specimen gathering, and the care of urban spaces increased. Paradoxically, at the same time, animals were being hunted, and some were in danger of extinction. Sev-eral Habsburg public intellectuals were both defenders of the enviro…

Culture, resistance and violence: Guarding the Habsburg Ostgrenze with Montenegro in 1914
Between 1878 and 1918 the Eastern border (Ostgrenze) of the Habsburg Monarchy, and in particular the mountainous regions between Hercegovina and Montenegro, posed security challenges. The people of the region had strong local traditions and a reputation for resistance to outside authority (having fought against Ottoman power for centuries). In 1878, the village of Klobuk had tried to fight off the Habsburg invader and had only slowly been subdued…
Genocide and Global and/or World History: Reflections
Soon after Raphael Lemkin coined the term “genocide” in Axis Rule in Occupied Europe in 1944, he began working on a world history of genocide to popularize his neologism.1 Correspondence with fundi
Josip Broz Tito and Yugoslav Communism: A Review of the Work of Geoffrey Swain
Many writers before and after 1980 have pondered Tito’s historical significance. What kind of Communist was he? He crafted an image of an alternative kind of socialism in which workers were self-ma

Watch on the D rina: Genocide, War and Nationalist Ideology
The D rina is a long winding river in the western B alkans, with many prosperous old towns on its banks. It had a central place in the mythologies of both C roatian and S erbian nationalists in the twentieth century. The idea that the river and its environs were unambiguously part of one national territory has led to the violent exclusion of other nationalities. This article looks at the D rina valley with a particular focus on the 1940s and 1990…
The Oxford Handbook of Genocide Studies
The Oxford Handbook of Genocide Studies subjects both genocide and the discipline it has spawned to systematic, in-depth investigation. Genocide has scarred human societies since Antiquity. In the modern era, genocide has been a global phenomenon: from massacres in colonial America, Africa, and Australia to the Holocaust of European Jewry and mass death in Maoist China. In recent years, the discipline of genocide studies has developed to offer an…

Was Religion Important in the Destruction of Ancient Communities in the Balkans, Anatolia and Black Sea Regions, c. 1870–1923
Before 1923, the Balkans, Anatolia and the Black Sea regions had been home to a large number of religious groups, who had preserved ancient practices, languages and beliefs for centuries. Muslims were driven towards Anatolia with the expansion of the Russian Empire and the emergence of new states in the Balkans. This process often involved considerable violence that often had a quasi‐religious element to it. Similarly, the position of Jews in Imp…

Violence and ethnic boundary maintenance in Bosnia in the 1990s
This article examines the content of violence incidents in Bosnia with a view to assessing the relationship between religion, ethnicity and the escalation into violence. I have examined incidences of violence where it could be argued that there is a strong symbolic content. During the Bosnian war, as the Slovene sociologist Mitja Velikonja has argued, even previous non-believers became attached to the mythologies and rites of particular religions
The Violent Destruction of Community during the ‘Century of Genocide’
Much of the early criticism of colonial genocide and genocidal practices elsewhere came from Marxists such as August Bebel, Antonio Gramsci and Ho Chi Minh. The German Left were strong critics of the colonial policy that led to the genocide against the Nama and Herero peoples. When Marxist regimes came to power after the First and Second World Wars, they initiated population politics which were highly detrimental to historical ethnic communities.…
Ethnic Cleansing in the Balkans: Nationalism and the Destruction of Tradition
Ethnic Cleansing in the Balkans looks at the phenomenon of ethnic cleansing in the Balkans over the last two hundred years. It argues that the events that occurred during this time can be demystified, that the South East of Europe was not destined to become violent and that constructions of the Balkans as endemically violent misses a important political point and historical point.Carmichael provides an account of ethnic cleansing in the Balkans a…
Language and nationalism in Europe
"This book examines the role of language in the present and past creation of social, cultural, and national identities in Europe. It considers the way in which language politics may sometimes reinforce national identity (as in France), or sometimes tend to undermine the nation-state (as in Spain). After an introduction describing the interactive roles of language, ethnicity, culture, and institutions in the character and formation of nationalism …
