"Basing his account on first-hand observations in the region before and since the communist demise, he evokes the drama and emotional discord as different factions sought to exploit, prevent, exacerbate, accelerate, or just make sense of the chaotic and unpredictable language situation. His account offers insights into the nature of language change and the relation between language and identity. It also provides a vivid perspective on nationalism and identity politics in the former Yugoslavia and its successor states"--BOOK JACKET
