Reviews
Geopolitics isn't just the manoeuvres of great powers and Castan Pinos highlights the geopolitics of peripheral conflicts by focusing on NATO's 'humanitarian' intervention in Kosovo. An artful blend of regional expertise and political theory, Castan Pinos's latest book is a must-read for those interested in how geopolitics actually works. - Steven M. Radil, Assistant Professor, Department of Geography, University of Idaho, USA Castan Pinos's study of the collateral consequences of NATO's intervention in Yugoslavia and the subsequent Kosovo's unilateral declaration of independence offers a timely and important examination into the ad hoc approaches to conflict resolution to one of the last open-ended conflicts in the Balkans. Challenging assumptions that Kosovo's statehood is sui generis, this work links moral imperatives for humanitarian intervention with strategic policies of Realpolitik. - Michael Rossi, Lecturer, Department of Politics, Rutgers University, USA
