Abstract

How does a conflict far away speak to men and women in Kosovo? What does this say about the memories of conflict in their own country? In this Strategic Update Asya Metodieva explores these questions through an in-depth analysis of both quantitative and oral sources, shedding light on the interaction of what are termed ‘identity producers’ and ‘identity seekers’.
