Tired of endless discussions of "transition" and "Europeanisation" that never tell you what these terms mean? Consider this: these are words about identity, and identity is fraught with conflict, contradiction and confusion over how people perceive themselves and others. These dilemmas are at the heart of political and social disputes involving Europe and the Balkans, and this collection offers a fascinating and challenging ride through them.

- Eric Gordy, Senior Lecturer in Southeast European Politics, UCL,

EU, Europe Unfinished is an important twist to the conversation on the Europe-Balkan relationship, exploring what it means for “Europe to find a home” in the Balkans. This rich, multi-disciplinary volume provides thought-provoking analyses of how the EU’s eastward expansion is remaking—and being remade by—the societies of the Balkans.

- Madigan Andrea Fichter, Assistant Professor, Holy Family University, Philadelphia,

[…] a volume concerned with questions related to the Balkans and EU/Europe, about change or even lack of change, about self and difference, that merits being read with patience and using the pen, not only to understand the opinions of the authors, but also to reflect on some questions that the different texts could reveal in our mind, or some answers to our own questions.
