"The century that had passed since the Balkan Wars of 1912–13 promoted a retrospective conference at Leipzig University. Now, a decade later, this volume provides a useful Introduction and ten articles from or inspired by the conference. The passage of time has not resolved or eliminated the national claims or international oversight from the region. Greece's recognition of North Macedonia has resolved one controversy but not the Bulgarian claims to the Macedonian language. And the border between Kosovo and Serbia remains unresolved, as does their mutual recognition."https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/slavic-review/article/ed-dietmar-muller-and-stefan-troebst-philanthropy-conflict-management-and-international-law-the-1914-carnegie-report-of-the-balkan-wars-of-19121913-budapest-central-european-university-press-2022-vii-311-pp-index-8500-hard-bound/CE9C4B94513AC7E28FFE320038E1628A?utm_source=SFMC&utm_medium=email&utm_content=Article&utm_campaign=New%20Cambridge%20Alert%20-%20Issues%20Society&WT.mc_id=New%20Cambridge%20Alert%20-%20Issues%20Society
