" There is a dearth of non-patisan analysis of post-war Bosnia, and
Bosnia after Dayton fills a ver clear need. This work will be of
great interest to all who want to gain understanding of what ethnic
conflict really looks like on the ground. It makes a number of
important and useful contributions that should be of interest to
students of ethnic politics and conflict, comparativists and IR
specialists dealing with the issue of partition, specialists of
electoral systems and their consequences for political stability.
This book contribution to understanding the political realities of
present-day Bosnia." Steven Burg, Professor of Politics,
Brandeis
University, co-author with Paul Shoup of The War in
Bosnia-Herzegovina
"This is an important book. Professor Bose effectively combines
field work and more standard scholarly research. His arguments are
forthrightly and boldly stated. A most valuable contribution to the
literature on ethnic conflict." Aryeh Neier, President, Open
Society Institute
"This is an exceptionally well-balanced study that would serve as a
more than excellent introduction for anyone interested in the roots
and functioning of Bosnia's emergent political system."Balkan
Academic News Book Reviews
"A rare book of balance and insight into the complex internal and
external relationships of Bosnian politics which deserves to be
widely read...seeks to learn the lessons and limitations of this
engineering process." - - lobal Review of Ethnopolitics
