Ana Omaljev is an independent researcher and writer specializing in different aspects of identity politics and discourse analysis in Southeast Europe.
Who are the 'nationalists,' who are the 'liberals,' what do they think of the world, and what do they think of each other? Ana Omaljev guides us through political confrontations in post-2000 Serbia to show contrasting understandings of identity, the position of the country in the world, and the meaning of Europe. Her book mobilizes methods of analysis from literary theory, international relations, anthropology, and linguistics. The resulting interpretation has implications not just for understanding of political and cultural conflict in Serbia, but for varied understandings of Europe in an environment of political confrontation. -- Eric Gordy, University College London, UK This engaging and empirically rich study offers a new insight into Serbia's political discourses. It moves away from seeing notions of 'Europe' and 'liberal' or 'conservative' Serbia and investigates instead how the meanings of each are (mutually) constructed through public debate and contestation enacted through the media, the academe, and politics. -- Jelena Obradovic-Wochnik, Aston University, Birmingham
