The course focuses on Balkan nationalism and selected aspects of conflict society in the Western Balkans after the break-up of the so-called Eastern Bloc. Because of the break-up of socialist Yugoslavia in 1991, tensions and collective violence escalated in the Western Balkans (initially in Slovenia, Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina, later also in Kosovo and FYROM). The course examines both political and socio-economic causes of why the tensions escalated to such an extent in the former Yugoslav republics. It likewise puts emphasis on the typology of conflicts, chosen phenomena which influenced ex-Yugoslav communities in the course of the war and on the formation of a new war identity. Attention is also devoted to paramilitary groups and to the impacts of the war under scrutiny on the behaviour of societies as well as of individuals. The principal aim of the course is to provide students with an overview of the main aspects of war anthropology and their influence on communities dramatically changed by war.

The aim of the course is to provide students with an overview of the main aspects of conflict society in the Western Balkans after the break-up of the Eastern Bloc. After the introductory lecture (Reconsidering national identification: National Politics of Tito’s Yugoslavia) and the introductory analysis of one of the examples of nationalist propaganda in practice (i.e. the recounting of the number of the dead of World War II in the 1980s) and of the characteristics of the Yugoslav constitutional order, focus is placed on analysing the typology of the most important conflicts in Croatia and in Bosnia-Herzegovina. The aim is to observe and analyse different interpretations of these wars and to evaluate whether they were civil conflicts or an act of aggression on the part of the neighbouring countries (the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and Croatia). Attention is also paid to the assessment of the accompanying phenomena of the wars under scrutiny: ethnic cleansing and forced migration. The following lectures are devoted to violence, which was brought into ex-Yugoslav communities from the outside - by paramilitary units and foreign combatants who fought in the area in huge numbers, especially in the war in Bosnia-Herzegovina. The last bloc of the course analyses the development in the FRY area, the Kosovo war and its aftermath. The question of so-called "Greater Albania" resonates in the last lecture dealing with the "last" conflict in the ex-Yugoslav area, in FYROM.

The basic requirement of the course is a minimum attendance of 70% (i.e. 9 seminars). The course is organised as follows: After an introductory speech of the lecturer, an analysis of the required text from the list of obligatory readings will follow. Regular reading of the required texts for every single class is obligatory for all participants without exception. On top of that, one main presenter will be chosen for each seminar. After he/she outlines the main ideas of the particular text in an oral presentation, a general discussion on the assigned reading will follow. In addition to presenting the main thoughts of the text, students also have to write a final paper (5 pages), an analysis of a chosen topic. The topical choice can be identical with that of the presentation. The text, written in academic style, has to include footnotes and references (you have to use at least 5 independent academic sources). The final paper has to be submitted to my e-mail address zila1@seznam.cz no later than 17 May 2016. Last but not least, there will be a final written exam at the end of the course.
