ADAMANT AND TREACHEROUS: SERBIAN HISTORIANS ON RELIGIOUS CONVERSIONS Bojan Aleksov A native of the former Yugoslavia, Bojan Aleksov is currently a postdoctoral research fellow of the Humboldt Foundation at the Osteuropa Institute in Berlin doing research on the Serbian Orthodox Church among Serbs in diaspora. He received the Ph.D. degree in 2004 from the Central European University in Budapest with a dissertation “Religious Dissent in the Age of Modernization and Nationalism: Nazarenes in Hungary and Serbia 1850-1914". The piece published here is a part of a larger research project; a more extended version appeared under the title "Adamant and Treacherous: Serbian Historians on Religious Conversions" in a collection edited by Pål Kolstø, entitled Myths and Boundaries in South-Eastern Europe (London: Hurst & Co, 2005) pp.
