X Abstract

That the 1990s began and ended with wars in the Balkans, often evoking reference to 'ancient hatreds', might suggest little has been learned since the fall of the Wall on how to address the recrudescence of violent ethno-nationalist conflict – and indeed some fatalism as to whether this can be done at all. Yet the rethinking of notions of national sovereignty, the increasing minority-rights jurisprudence and the development of anti-essentialist concepts of identity in recent times have begun to indicate new policy instruments which might better allow such conflicts to be managed in the twenty-first century. As ever, however, policy lags behind intellectual innovations, and the predominant approach of the international community remains for the moment significantly more conservative in character.
