This work aims to synthesize literature on Balkan topics since World War I, and demonstrate the importance of Balkan history by examining it in the context of European and world history. It uses imperial and local approaches, providing national histories as well as contextualising the subject.

this book is distinctive in three ways. First, it connects the past to the present. Second, it connects not only the past and the present but also the present and the future. Third, it is a world history, and deals with the entire globe rather than with one country or region.
