Its genesis is rooted, however, in years of frustration with the ignorance of our news media, the lack of a deep historical context among political leaders (and the political scientists who advise them), and especially the reluctance of Habsburg historians to contribute their considerable insights to the ongoing public debate over U.S. policy.

  • DELEGITIMIZING MULTICULTURALISM: the Role of Cultural Elites in Ethnic Conflict1
    Polemos 6 (2003.) 1-2: 87-95, ISSN 1331-5595 DELEGITIMIZING MULTICULTURALISM: The Role of Cultural Elites in Ethnic Conflict1 Charles Ingrao UDK: 323.14:316.7 323.14:316.4 323.14:316.3 Izlaganje sa znanstvenog skupa Primljeno: 8.3.2003. Prihvaæeno: 15.3.2003. During the wars of Yugoslav succession, nationalists on all sides maintained that it was impossible for different national groups to live together in harmony in a democratic society. They spoke of “age-old hatreds,” pointing to an historical landscape littered with international conflicts, civil wars, rebellions, or individual acts of violence between the region’s national and ethnic groups. Moreover, after a decade of continuous confrontation between former Yugoslavia’s constituent nationalities, an increasing number of foreign observers are inclined to agree. After all, the “democratization” process has been attended by the abrupt, acrimonious, and sometimes violent dissolution of multiethnic societies throughout the formerly Communist eastern half of Europe. Thus, one of the first consequences of glasnost and perestroika in the USSR was the secession of the three Baltic states, a step followed by all of the once vaunted Soviet empire’s constituent republics. The “democratic process” certainly played a role in these events. As a rule, populist politicians quickly exploited the post-Communist world’s first “free elections” to marshal the power of those national groups which constituted a majority of their countries’ voters. In central Europe, the seemingly inevitable result was Czechoslo- vakia’s velvet divorce and Yugoslavia’s bloody dissolution. To the dismay of the inter- national community, postwar “free” elections in Bosnia-Hercegovina and Kosovo Charles Ingrao is Professor of History, Purdue University.

  • Charles Ingrao ◆
    INTRODUCTION ◆ Charles Ingrao ◆ It was the kind of scene most people would never forget. On 19 March 1988 a car carrying two British army corporals inadvertently encountered a large funeral procession that had gathered outside a Belfast cemetery to bury three slain IRA gunmen. The crowd quickly converged on the men, who were dragged from the vehicle, beaten, stripped, and then hoisted over a wall just out of sight of security cameras, where they were summarily executed. Surely the horrific news footage that flashed on the television screen that evening was not that unusual for Brit- ish or Irish viewers. But it left this American observer searching for answers. Later that evening I wrote to a dear friend and colleague at the University of Cambridge, who had just arranged for me to spend the following spring there as a visiting fellow. In the letter I advised him that, upon my arrival in Cambridge, I would ask him how the nightmare that had gripped Northern Ireland could be resolved. That moment came ten months later, as we and our wives sat comfort- ably around the fireplace in his living room. “Okay, Tim, what is the solution in Northern Ireland?” Alas, my expectations were dashed by a response that was quick, laconic, and anticlimactic: “That’s just it, Charlie. There is no solution!” Perhaps my friend attributed my optimism to the naïveté that often springs so readily from ignorance. After all, I was a central European historian whose focus on sectarian conflict centers on the Habsburg and Ottoman Empires rather than on a country that takes pride in its historic and cultural exceptionalism.

  • Self-Determination Along the Austrian Frontier, 1918-1920: Case Studies of German Bohemia, Vorarlberg, and Carinthia
    Self-Determination along the Austrian Frontier, 1918-1920: Case Studies of German Bohemia, Vorarlberg, and Carinthia Matthew Vink A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Victoria University of Wellington 2013 ii Abstract The First World War led to the collapse of a number of prominent European empires, allowing for the spread of new ideas into Europe. US President Woodrow Wilson’s rhetoric of national self-determination attracted particular symbolic importance because it legitimised popular sovereignty through the use of plebiscites. German-Austrians, like other national groups within the Austro-Hungarian Empire, used self-determination to justify establishing independent successor states after the war. The German-Austrian Republic, founded in 1918, claimed all German-speaking regions of the former Austro-Hungarian Empire on the basis of self- determination. This thesis examines claims to self-determination in three different cases: German Bohemia, Vorarlberg, and Carinthia. Representatives from each region took their case to the Paris Peace Conference, appealing to the Allied delegations to grant international recognition. These representatives faced much opposition, both from local non-German populations and occasionally even from the German-Austrian government itself. German-Austrian politicians in the Czech lands opposed the incorporation of German- majority lands into Czechoslovakia, and instead sought to establish an autonomous German Bohemian province as part of German-Austria. In Paris, Allied delegations supported the historic frontier of the Czech lands, and therefore opposed local German self-determination outright, refusing demands for a plebiscite in German Bohemia. Vorarlberg representatives sought Vorarlberg’s secession from German-Austria, hoping instead for union with Switzerland.

Germany’s courts have concluded that genocide occurred in both Northern and Eastern Bosnia in 1992, and an appeal against a conviction for genocide on this basis was dismissed by a third international court—the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR). Yet, there has been minimal international punishment of genocide in Bosnia. Serbia was convicted by the ICJ only of a failure to prevent and punish genocide. Only one middle-ranking individual has been convicted of a genocide- related charge by the ICTY; three others of similar or lower rank have been convicted but are appealing the convictions.

  • The Two Faces of the Hungarian Empire
    Austrian History Yearbook (2021), 52, 118–130 doi:10.1017/S0067237820000545 ARTICLE The Two Faces of the Hungarian Empire . Bálint Varga Eötvös Loránd Research Network, Institute of History, Budapest, Hungary Corresponding author: Bálint Varga, email: [email protected] Abstract This article investigates the uses of the term “Hungarian Empire” during the long nineteenth century. It argues that the term “empire” emerged in the Hungarian political discourse in the Vormärz era and it was used to denote the imagined integrity of Hungary proper, Transylvania, Croatia, Slavonia, and eventually Dalmatia on the grounds of the historic rights of the Holy Crown of Hungary in the form of a composite https://www.cambridge.org/core/terms nation-state. This usage of the term became ubiquitous after the Austro-Hungarian Compromise. A second meaning pertaining to imperialist foreign policy entered the dictionary of Hungarian political discourse in the late nineteenth century. Fed by the recently created memory of the medieval Hungarian great power, sev- eral pressure groups in fin-de-siècle Hungary lobbied for a Hungarian (informal) empire in Southeastern Europe and beyond. While several lobby groups were firmly embedded in the framework of the Austro- Hungarian monarchy, some of these visionaries imagined a Hungarian empire independent from the Habsburg structures. A short comparison with the Croatian and Czech political discourses illuminates that the first meaning of empire (composite nation-state) did not differ in substance from contemporary ter- minology in other Habsburg lands but the second meaning (imperialism) was indeed a unique phenomenon in the Habsburg monarchy. Keywords: empire; composite state; state rights; imperialism; foreign policy , subject to the Cambridge Core terms of use, available at Whether the late Habsburg monarchy can be defined as an empire and, if so, what kind of empire it was, has been at the forefront of research in the past few years.

  • When Justice Leads, Does Politics Follow? the Realist Limits of Stigmatizing War Criminals Through International Prosecution
    When Justice Leads, Does Politics Follow? The Realist Limits of Stigmatizing War Criminals through International Prosecution Kenneth A. Rodman Colby College Abstract Human rights advocates have called for ICC investigations in situations like Syria or North Korea regardless of the political strategies adopted by the international community toward those regimes. Part of the rationale for this advocacy is the presumed normative pull of international justice, which can stigmatize those indicted to both international and domestic audiences, leading to their marginalization. However, the examples most closely associated with this argument – Radovan Karadžić and Ratko Mladić (1995), Slobodan Milošević (1999), and Charles Taylor (2003) – are false positives since they correlated with a political commitment by powerful states to remove those actors from power. By contrast, when powerful third parties want to engage regimes whose leaders subjected to criminal scrutiny – either because of shared interests or a diplomatic approach to conflict management – the stigmatizing impact of criminalization is limited because states will ignore or reinterpret their international legal obligations. This is demonstrated by the ICTR’s failure to prosecute commanders of the Rwandan Patriotic Front and the problems the ICC has encountered in its Darfur and Kenyan investigations. The findings support a qualified realist view that the effectiveness of international criminal tribunals is dependent on the political strategies and capabilities of powerful states. Introduction In 2014, the UN Security Council deliberated over referring the Syrian civil war to the International Criminal Court and a UN Commission of Inquiry has recommended it do the same for North Korea.1 While Russia and China vetoed the Syrian resolution – and would likely do the same for one on North Korea – the prospects for accountability in either case would appear to be dim even if referrals were authorized.
