Balkans: History, Politics, Society Political Conflict and Governance Post-Soviet Geopolitical Dynamics

Abstract

Whilst the Bosnian conflict of the early 1990s has attracted wide attention in academic circles, few give sufficient background or provide the political backdrop for the policy of ethnic cleansing which characterized this conflict. Seeking to fill such a gap this article shows why and how ethnic cleansing was embraced as a means of homogenizing peoples in Bosnia. Focusing on exclusivist policies at the national and regional level, the analysis suggests that ethnic cleansing was a result of incompatible policies, which contested state borders, control of strategic and economic resources, and the political organization of the new state.
