Course objectives

The aim of this course is to closely follow the often turbulent development of the Balkan region from the year 1989 until present days. The essence is to tackle various stereotypes and misinterpretations that are still hunting the Balkan region. The course will follow the fall of communist regimes in the region, Yugoslav wars & transitional justice, political representation, religion, migration, minorities and also current political hindrances in the region. Apart from observing the political and international context of the last 20 years in the Balkans, it is necessary to understand the theoretical approaches and general context in which the region develops. The objective of this course is to enable the students to approach the Balkan affairs in its complexity, understanding as well as applying theoretical context on contemporary Balkan affairs.
