Description

This Routledge collection of essays examines how the Balkans and the West have constructed each other since 1945 through diverse scholarly perspectives. Contributors from both regions analyse fiction, film, journalism, travel writing and diplomatic records to uncover Western European balkanism and Balkan representations of the West across five decades. The first section traces Cold War imagery, revealing divergent and often favourable portrayals of the Balkans in Western culture alongside varied Balkan responses to Western influence. The essays investigate the cultural, political and historical narratives that shaped mutual perceptions during and after the Cold War era, offering critical insights into how geographical and ideological boundaries were imagined and reinforced through representation and discourse.

Key Features

Essays analyse Western European balkanism through fiction, film, journalism, travel writing and diplomatic records spanning 1945 to 2003.

Contributors from both Balkan and Western European regions provide dual perspectives on intercultural construction and representation.

Cold War section examines the divergent images of the Balkans that circulated in Western culture during the post-1945 period.

Collection investigates how Balkan societies represented and responded to Western influence over fifty years of political and cultural change.

Routledge publication combines historical analysis with literary and cultural criticism to challenge established narratives about European identity.
