Summary
Stevan Pavlowitch: History of the Balkans
1804 - 1945
In the book History of the Balkans, Professor Pavlowitch deals with various issues raised by the recent history of these areas - both the history of the states created in the struggle for liberation from Turkish rule and broader phenomena. This synthesis encompasses the territory between the Alps and the Dniester, the Black, Aegean and Adriatic seas, and in a chronological sense it is symbolically bounded by two key dates - the year 1804, when the great Serbian movement for national liberation began, and ends with the end of World War II in 1945.
An attempt to understand the history of the Balkans, its political, ideological, economic, social and cultural problems as common, helps a better and deeper understanding of reality, mutual depending on history and soil, and even the history of this troubled area today. Having opened up new fields of research on the Balkans, the author issued a kind of challenge to contemporary world and domestic historiography.
