This journal explores societal reconstruction and reconciliation as incentives for the enhancement of post-conflict reconciliation in the Western Balkans. It includes six chapters that demonstrate that different conceptualizations of post-conflict reconciliation are not only possible, but also necessary. It argues that post-conflict integrative normative solutions, such as assurance of minority participation in public life and power-sharing mechanisms, have contributed to the re-emergence of cooperation and, to a certain degree, to the normalization of relations between different ethnic communities across the region.
