The centrepiece of the book is an examination of how it is possible that the expected effect of Europeanisation on ethnic identities in a post-conflict environment -- a transformation of ethnic identities through desecuritisation -- does not materialise in the case of BiH and the RS. The book starts from the assumption that the political elite in the RS uses Europeanisation as a context for the securitization of two sources of threats -- the internal and external Other. This prevents the transformation of ethnic identities in BiH, and as a result also the desecuritisation of antagonisms among the ethnic groups of BiH. The results show that any attempt at a more active engagement by the EU and international community was interpreted by the RS political elite as Bosniak agenda aimed against the RS. In this respect, the book demonstrates that BiH's EU accession process or a clearer EU perspective alone in scrutinized critical junctures did not outweigh the potential costs for the RS political elite if reforms aimed at creating a more functional BiH were to succeed. In all three analysed critical junctures, the political elite in RS presented motions for a more functional BiH as attempts to centralise the country and framed them as the beginning of the end for the RS as a political entity. 001484321 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed November 27, 2023). 001484321 650_0 $$aEthnology$$zBosnia and Herzegovina. 001484321 651_0 $$aRepublika Srpska$$xPolitics and government. 001484321 651_0 $$aBosnia and Herzegovina$$xPolitics and government$$y1992- 001484321 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001484321 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aKočan, Faris$$tIdentity, Ontological Security and Europeanisation in Republika Srpska$$dCham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2023$$z9783031461682 001484321 830_0 $$aCentral and Eastern European perspectives on international relations series,$$x2947-7999 001484321 852__ $$bebk 001484321 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-46169-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001484321 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1484321$$pGLOBAL_SET 001484321 980__ $$aBIB 001484321 980__ $$aEBOOK 001484321 982__ $$aEbook 001484321 983__ $$aOnline 001484321 994__ $$a92$$bISE
