Ethnologia Balkanica - 18: Cultures of Crisis in Southeast Europe

Part 1: Crises Related to Migration, Transformation, Politics, Religion, and Labour

More about the book

Southeast Europe's history of the last two centuries is marked by deep transformations and the emergence and disappearance of states; ethnic conflicts and wars; changes of political systems; economic crises; migration movements; and natural disasters. Most of these upheavals have been experienced as deep crises forcing people to adapt to often radically new situations. This can cause crisis management to become a permanent way of life. The book focuses on the cultures of crisis. It analyzes the reactions of societies or individuals to them, their impact on everyday life, on peoples' strategies of coping, on the processes of adaptation, and on peoples' attitudes. Focus is placed on crises relating to migration and post-socialist transformation, to politics and religion, and to labour relations.
