COMPSEES 73/3 Out Now

Comparative Southeast European Studies 73, no. 3, 2025, is available in open access.

In this issue, as in the previous one, two contributions run under the header of the annual theme "The Yugoslav Wars and the Year 1995: Reflections. Resilience. Reverberations":

Anton Vukpalaj (Prishtina) analyses how Serbia has made strategic use of the 1999 NATO bombing to challenge Kosovo’s statehood, with a focus on the time before and especially after Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

Shpresonë Grulaj (Prague) offers an anthropological study on postwar social transformation processes among the women living in the village of Krushë e Madhe, a site of a massacre during the Kosovo war. 

In addition, the issue features four worthwhile research articles:

Milana Čergić (Mainz) explores the working conditions of employees at the Bingo supermarket in Tuzla, Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Mislav Dević (Zadar) investigates the question of the interconnections between community social capital and family ties in Zadar, Croatia.

Vildan Meydan (Çorum) analyses changes in the cost-benefit considerations of the United States vis-à-vis Greece and Turkey in the recent decades.

Attila Dabis (Budapest) dissects the effects of the EU's diversity policy on the ground, taking the Szekler community in Romania as a case in point.

In the Open Section, Francesco Trupia (Torún) throws a spotlight on urban eviction and migratory experiences of Roma between Bulgaria and Germany.

And not lastly, we recommend the four book reviews to your attention.
