"I highly recommend the book Civic and Uncivic Values in Kosovo for its
comprehensive discussion of the Kosovo case and deep insights into the situation
of the region – insights imperative to the development of strategies for
Kosovo’s consolidation, as well as consolidation of other Western Balkan countries.
The book offers comprehensive insight into the complexities of both the Serbian and Albanian communities, and particularly their traumas and narratives,
which have to be taken into consideration when addressing the difficult
issues of the recent past. We need to draw proper lessons from failures:
the changes we are hoping for can take place only if societies themselves have
been prepared to embrace them. And this book clearly charts this course."
