Jan, 2001 by Karen Vanmeenen
An introduction The atrocities of the war have now been well documented, thanks in part to photographers and photojournalists, 59 of whom died while covering the conflictthe highest number of journalist casualties in a four-year period since World War II. This war was also unusual in its participants' targeting of civilians and the single fact that there were more civilian than military casualties. The brutality of this conflict is also evident in the bombing of such normally sacred (even in wartime) institutions as public markets, civilian heating sources, factories, buses, trains and hospitals. The war resulted in hundreds of thousands of deaths, mostly of civilians, and created millions of refugees and displaced persons. Although the leaders who fashioned the rhetoric that spurred the violence have been removed from power and the war has ended, the region remains unstable. What has emerged is a people desiring to return to their homes and rebuild their lives, to set the record straight and to express themselves freely, whether it be through political and economic reform or through artmaking. The intention of this special issue of Afterimage is to explore issues surrounding the production of media art from and about the Balkans region, as created within and influenced by its complex history and present. It is important for readers to begin with some contextualization in regard to this history, albeit greatly abbreviated and simplified here, in order to understand the political and cultural machinations that necessarily influence this artistic production. It must be said up front that it is impossible in this venueor perhaps in any singular documentto explore the endless nuances that are imbedded in this recent history especially, and that this summation makes no particular claims to read as the ultimate truth of the matter.

Advertisement In Brief The assassination of Arch Duke Franz Ferdinand started World War I, a horrific reminder that in the Balkans anything goes. Well, anything can go wrong. It took seven people to kill the guy, and not because they were trying particularly hard. See what happens when a bunch of damn kids try to change the world order and remind yourselves how easy it is to get Europeans to go to war.

The Balkans Since 1815
1815 to 1839: After the Congress of Vienna
The Ottoman Empire, having emerged from the Middle Ages predominant in the Balkans, controlled Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina at its northern fringes. 1914: Eve of the First World War
The Turks were driven from most of the Balkans in the 19th century and were replaced by rivalrous European powers. With Russian patronage, an independent Serbia was born alongside an Austrian controlled Bosnia, where a Serbian nationalist ignited World War I by assassinating the Austrian prince, Archduke Francis Ferdinand in Sarajevo.
Between the Two World Wars
The Versailles conference created a unified kingdom of the south Slavs Yugoslavia. It encompassed Serbs, Croatians and Slovenians, with the capital in Belgrade and the lion's share of influence held by Serbs. Bosnia's Muslims were not recognized as a distinct group. Nov. 1942: Height of Axis Occupation
The Axis powers occupied Yugoslavia, creating a puppet state in Croatia ruled by local fascists who fought and butchered Serbs, Jews and Gypsies. Yugoslav Communist partisans led by Tito, as well as Serbian royalists known as Chetniks, fought the Nazis, and Tito emerged in control.
1945 to 1990: Cold War Stability
Under Tito, Yugoslavia held together as a federation of six autonomous republics, although Serbs retained great influence, notably in the military. As Communism collapsed, Serbia's President, Slobodan Milosevic, hastened Yugoslavia's disintegration with a blatantly nationalistic appeal to Serbs.

The Balkans region of Eastern Europe has been beset in the last
decade by a civil war that has generally been claimed by international
governments to be grounded in "ethnic hatred." The reality is
of course much more complex, with competition for scarce resources

A BRIEF HISTORY The Illyrians The origins of the Albanian people are not definitely known, but data drawn from history and from linguistic, archaeological, and anthropological studies have led to the
conclusion that Albanians are the direct descendants of the ancient Illyrians and that
the latter were natives of the lands they inhabited. Similarly, the Albanian language
derives from the language of the Illyrians, the transition from Illyrian to Albanian
apparently occurring between the 4th and 6th centuries AD. Illyrian culture is believed to have evolved from the Stone Age and to have manifested itself in the territory of Albania toward the beginning of the Bronze Age, about 2000 BC. The Illyrians were not a uniform body of people but a conglomeration of many tribes that inhabited the western part of the Balkans, from what is now Slovenia in the northwest to (and including) the region of Epirus, which extends about halfway down the mainland of modern Greece. In general, Illyrians in the highlands ofAlbania were more isolated than those in the lowlands, and their culture evolved more slowlya distinction that persisted throughout Albania's history. In its beginning, the kingdom of Illyria comprised the actual territories of

Course Overview
This course examines the history of the Balkans in the late 19 th and throughout the 20 th century as represented by the modern states of Albania, Bulgaria, Greece, Romania and the Yugoslav successor states (Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Macedonia, Slovenia, and Montenegro). The course focuses on the history of the individual states as well as on comparison. It will explore the vexed questions of state boundaries, inter-ethnic relations and the role of the Great Powers as a way to provide students with a background for understanding the complex issue of Balkan nationalism. The course is divided into four sections: In the first part we will explore the main developments in Balkan history until the end of the 19 th century. In part II we will examine the turbulent politics from the Congress of Berlin to the end of World War II. In part III we will focus on the experience of Communism in the Balkans. Part IV will be devoted to Balkan transition to democracy and the Yugoslav Wars for succession. Required Readings: -Barbara Jelavich

BALKAN CRISIS AND
THE TREATY OF BERLIN: 1878 (Excerpts from "The Balkans Since 1453" by L. S. Stavrianos , Professor of History,
Northwestern University, published in 1963 by Holt, Rinehart and Winston
Library of Congress Catalog Card Number: 58-7242) THE BALKAN CRISIS concluded by the Berlin Treaty of 1878 represents a milestone in both European and Balkan history. For Europe it marked the disintegration of the newly formed Three Emperors' League of Germany, Austria, and Russia. This in turn meant the renewal and intensification of the Austro- Russian rivalry in the Balkans which started with the Crimean War. It also meant the re-emergence of Britain as an active force in European affairs after years of splendid isolation under Gladstone. For the Balkans the Berlin settlement involved major changes in frontiers and in political status. Bulgaria became autonomous, and Serbia, Montenegro, and Rumania gained complete independence and additional territory The European powers also helped themselves to portions of European Turkey. After this reshuffling, the map of the Balkans was to remain virtually unchanged until the Balkan Wars of 1912-1913 completed the process of liberation from Turkish rule. Content:

Please see the Map Background file for details on the sources of these maps, scales, how they were scanned, etc.
BACKGROUND:
1. The FEEFHS East European Map Room has a 51 map collection from the Comprehensive Atlas and Geography of the World (published by Blackie and Sons in 1882 in Edinburgh, Scotland) cover almost all of central and eastern Europe, including all of the German Empire and the Russian Empire. This includes European Russia (east to the Urals) and trans-Ural Asian Russia (Siberia and the Pacific). A map of Switzerland is not planned since a detailed road map is available for Switzerland from any AAA (American Auto Club) office in America.
2. Poland: One map is posted. We are still actively looking for a really good map of 19th century Central Poland. Poland did not exist as a nation for about 126 years prior to the end of World War I. However the Austrian, German and Russian partitions of Poland are shown as parts of their respective Empires on the maps in this Map Rooom. We came up with a map of the Polish provinces of the Russian Empire (i.e. the Russian partition of Poland) - see the index below).
3. Russia: The European part of the Russian Empire of 1882 is now posted in ten maps. Asian Russia is represented by seven maps.
