Zusammenfassung:This article examines the re-articulation of national identity in Macedonia since its independence in 1992. Both ethnic Macedonian and ethnic Albanian political identities have been engaged in a complex process of redefinition. In its essence, the conflict in Macedonia is - to a large extent - a conflict between two different concepts of what is Macedonia and who are Macedonians. The questions posed are: is the minority (ethnic Albanians) part of the nation? Could two nations exist peacefully within one state? The article maps out differences between two discourses on the identity of the new Macedonian state. (Nations and Nationalism, ECMI)
