• Description

  Albania & Kosovo: Political and Ethnic Boundaries: 1867-1946 2-volume set of 1 book and 1 map case with 12 maps. Approximately 1,100 pages. ISBNs of this edition are 9781852079109 and 185207910X, subsequent editions use 9781852079109 (print) and 9781139976398 (e-book). This set of documents and maps provides the historical background appropriate to understanding the present Balkan crisis. It makes available the essential historical texts and maps determining the formation of boundaries in the Kosovo region. Treaties, political reports and diplomatic correspondence have been selected from British government files to show the main historical developments in territorial relations between Albania, Kosovo, Serbia, Montenegro, Macedonia and Greece. The collection begins with the rise of Balkan nationalism in the mid-nineteenth century, and ends with the provisional Government of Albania set up in 1944, turning away from its original close links with Yugoslavia, fearing Yugoslav expansionism, and seeking alliances with China and other Communist powers.
