Abstract:

The book explores the nexus of intellectual activity and nation-building from
a critical discourse-analytical perspective. By examining how public
intellectuals from Serbia, Croatia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina commented on
key national events in editorials and opinion pieces, it offers unique
insights into contemporary nation-building discourses in an enlarging Europe.
Through a detailed reconstruction of the debates concerning the selected
events, the book also provides fresh empirical evidence of the implications
and challenges of post-socialist transition, post-conflict reconciliation,
democratisation and European integration in the post-Yugoslav region. Its
versatile framework, which innovatively combines sociological and linguistic
approaches to the discursive positioning of intellectuals, may be readily
applied to the analysis of intellectual engagement with current affairs and
public life in general.
