{"product_id":"kosovo-divided-marius-ionut-calu-9781788315012","title":"Kosovo Divided: Ethnicity, Nationalism and the Struggle for a State","description":"Given the recent revival of nationalism in many parts of the world in tandem with new conflicts and forms of interventionism, this book uses the case of Kosovo to discuss some of key problems around contemporary practices of state-building. Based on exhaustive research and fieldwork, Marius Calu investigates how the management of plurality is a fundamental element of contemporary state-building seeking to build social cohesion, while for the new-born Kosovo it stands as vital symbol for its domestic sovereignty and legitimisation. With the aim of understanding why and in what ways the management of diversity has become a central element of state-building in post-conflict Kosovo, this study juxtaposes the de jure multi-ethnic liberal democratic form of governance with the de facto results and consequences of Kosovo's task to protect, accommodate and integrate its ethnic minorities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marius-Ionut Calu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1788315014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781788315012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e I.
