| The contemporary theme of Samuel Huntington's "Clash of Civilizations" has been used to explain recent conflicts, such as those in Bosnia and Kosovo in 1991-2001. How people have responded to this line of thinking, and how it relates to the collapse of Muslim-Christian relations as well as the inter-civilizational relations in Bosnia and Kosovo are explored in this thesis. The lessons learned about Muslim-Christian relations will provide a level of understanding needed for the unique cases of Bosnia and Kosovo to enable them to move forward in the twenty-first century. |
