{"product_id":"9780739117835","title":"Politics of Ethnic Cleansing : Nation-State Building and Provision of In\/Security in Twentieth-Century Balkans","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book sheds light on the causes and consequences of ethnic cleansing in the twentieth century Balkans with particular reference to the former Yugoslavia in the 1990s. In providing a thorough and consistent analysis of large-scale episodes of ethnic cleansing in modern Balkan history,Politics of Ethnic Cleansing fills an important gap in existing conflict and peace studies literature. Offering a top-down interpretation of the expulsion of ethno-national minorities as a means of state-building, the analysis rests on a fresh, multidimensional approach, which provides an eclectic discussion of nationalism, politics, and security. This book establishes an agenda for policy-making and future research by making specific proposalsfor clearing up the present ambiguities in international humanitarian law related to ethnic cleansing, rethinking humanitarian intervention with a view to restoring the long-term viability of the target states, and repudiating the argument for forced homogenization as a conflict resolution strategy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lexington Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52276778959159,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":319.39,"currency_code":"MYR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/3548\/7543\/files\/9780739117835-1.jpg?v=1783122166","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.my\/products\/9780739117835","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Malaysia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
