Reviews

'This book offers an extremely interesting comparative perspective on the crucial questions of when, why and how ethnic elites choose to cooperate with each other in the aftermath of violent conflict. It contains important insights not just for those working on the Balkans but for scholars examining post-conflict reconciliation and state building more widely.' James Ker-Lindsay, London School of Economics, UK 'Cvete Koneska delivers a very convincing comparative account of post-conflict decision making in the Balkans. Her approach discusses variance in policy making outcomes, and assesses successes and failures of the politics of power-sharing and elite accommodation. A must-read for those who seek a deeper, sectoral understanding of how local elites operate within ethnically polarised contexts.' Othon Anastasakis, University of Oxford, UK 'Cvete Koneska has written an engaging and nuanced text, which offers fresh insights on the extent of ethnic accommodation in two post-conflict ethnically divided societies. ... After Ethnic Conflict should be widely read, not just by Balkan scholars but also by power-sharing theorists and others interested in how to encourage ethnic accommodation in divided societies.'
