By looking at the complex interrelationship between countries and regions, demonstrating how different perspectives and different methodological approaches inflect interpretations and conclusions, it insists on the heuristic value of scales. The volume is a collection of published and unpublished essays, dealing with issues of modernism, backwardness, historical legacy, balkanism, post-colonialism and orientalism, nationalism, identity and alterity, society-and nation-building, historical demography and social structure, socialism and communism in memory, and historiography. 410 0$aBalkan Studies Library$v24. 606 $aNationalism$zBalkan Peninsula 606 $aNationalism$zBulgaria 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aNationalism 615 0$aNationalism 676 $a949.6 700 $aMaria N.
