| Title | Limits of Ethnic Bargaining: Serbian Enclaves in Kosovo |
| Summary | This paper examines the processes of status bargaining of two Serbian enclaves in Kosovo with the central government in Pristina. It develops a middle range theoretical model of enclave bargaining in order to account for different claims advanced against the center, by focusing on different practices and institutions of ethnic enclaves. Ethnic groups are largely viewed as unitary actors by dominant theories on claim making. This research shows that these groups are sometimes fragmented and have divergent interests, depending on their territorial position and demographic patterns. The changes in radicalization of enclavised ethnic groups are explained as a function of their bargaining leverage, which depends on the incentives offered to these enclaves by their external lobby actors and the host government. |
