Abstract

Kosovo and Serbia have recently discussed an exchange of territory, with some commentators suggesting a deal on a 'land swap' might be imminent. Andrea Lorenzo Capussela writes that while critics have rightly decried the plan as a redrawing of borders along ethnic lines, they neglect the fact that Kosovo itself is the product of a unilateral, ethnicity-based partition. He proposes a different approach for understanding the issue.
