"The book will doubtless serve generations of scholars, whether their interest focuses primarily on the history of medieval Hungary or on the Hospitaller Order". - Crusades
"The contributors to this volume demonstrate how traditional, provincial and nationalist values, referred to as uncivic, still obstruct the European aspirations of the biggest republic of the former Yugoslavia... I most warmly recommend this volume." - International Affairs

Pierre Hassner, Institute d'Etides Politiques,

Building a bridge between political philosophy and
the analysis of current affairs, as well as between
the author's personal experience and the collective
dramas of the twentieth century, Pierre Hassner stresses
two major features of our time: the decline of interstate
war as a realistic prospect, and the increase in domestic
and transnational violence.
