Sweden - Serbia and Europe

This anthology collects 11 papers and presentations given at the November 2012 symposium in Stockholm. The theme "Periphery or not?" refers to the spatial, cultural and political situation of the two countries in relation to what is often referred to as Central Europe. In many ways Serbia and Sweden represent very different cases of history, ethnic composition and neighbourly relations but the two countries share certain problems of relating to the dominant centers of culture, economy and scholarship without losing their identity.
