It is an unlikely development given that, scarcely thirty years ago, they were targeted for extermination and expulsion by Serbia's Slobodan Miloevi. Even as the Bosniak community fought to survive these atrocities, it simultaneously came under attack from militants led by Croatian president Franjo Tuman, who attempted to partition Bosnia and Herzegovina between Zagreb and Belgrade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eImprobably, the Bosniaks and the Bosnian state survived these campaigns. But the country's fractious sectarian post-war order has produced the world's most convoluted constitutional regime, always teetering on the brink of collapse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJasmin Mujanovi illuminates the sources of contemporary Bosniak political identity, tracing the evolution of a religious community into a secular nation, and shedding light on the future of a nation at a crossroads. He explores the idea of Bosnia and Herzegovina as a 'national homeland', considers how narratives of genocide influence self-identity, and probes how demographic changes are putting pressure on the country's political framework.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fate of Bosnia and Herzegovina's peace and democracy rests on the Bosniaks' shoulders--and with it, the stability of all Southeastern Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46857104490654,"sku":"ADS-9781805260462","price":67.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781805260462.jpg?v=1779154471","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781805260462","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
