"Frozen Conflicts" in Europe

Front Cover

Verlag Barbara Budrich, 2015 - Political Science - 215 pages
Often forgotten, but never resolved, there are six simmering "frozen conflicts" that continuously mark the political map of Europe. Located in South Eastern Europe and Transcaucasia, the armed violence within multinational states runs along ethnic, national, cultural, and linguistic lines, separating communities, as well as entire countries. This insightful book offers a rare critical analysis of the cases of Northern Cyprus, Transnistria, Abkhazia, South Ossetia, Nagorno-Karabakh, and Kosovo. The book examines the elusive search for resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh dispute, the agreements on normalization between Serbia and Kosovo, and the international legal perspective on less-than-universally-recognized states.
