Recenzje

Appearing in the year of the 200th anniversary of the Greek Revolution, this courageous book complicates the rich history of Greek nationalism. Carving new research vistas, empirically rich and theoretically savvy, it offers a balanced picture of the unique and original minority governance of the Muslim community in Greece until the Second World War. A must-read for anyone interested in the history of the whole Balkan region and broadly on minority issues.
