Reviews

A book a long time in coming and yet absolutely timely...Toal and Dahlman are very effective at weaving together an analysis that takes into account global power relations, local (opstina) political dynamics, nationalist narratives and their everyday circulation, actual practices of ethnic cleansing and its reversal, and the specific experience of place. Methodologically, the book makes use of published and governmental documents, as well as interviews with both survivors, combatants, and political leaders in the towns of Zvornik, Doboj, and Jajce...extremely effective in its presentation. --Berfrois Gerard Toal's and Carl Dahlman's Bosnia Remade: Ethnic Cleansing and its Reversal is the best book yet written on post-Dayton Bosnia. --Marko Hoare, Reader, Kingston University London, and author of The History of Bosnia: From the Middle Ages to the Present Day This is the first comprehensive treatment of the Bosnian conflict and post-conflict eras as a continuous tale of those whose lives were destroyed or disrupted. The authors' unique advantages as political geographers are evident in the plethora of valuable insights that add greatly to our understanding of Bosnia's tumultuous last two decades and the international efforts to remake it.

The book is an invaluable addition to the literature on the complex and contested events of the Bosnian conflict. --Robert Donia, Research Associate, Center for Russian, East European, and Eurasian Studies, University of Michigan, and author of Sarajevo: A Biography The authors provide a detailed and shrewd analysis of the effects of war on post-Dayton Bosnia. Drawing on extensive English-language literature and interviews with the various local actors, theirs is the most perceptive account of contemporary social
