Territorial and boundary disputes between Serbia and Kosovo

PublisherBelgrade Centre for Security Policy, Serbia

This case study explores perspectives on territorial and boundary issues in South Serbia, near the administrative boundary with Kosovo and Metohija.

Data for this research were collected in the town of Bujanovac. The findings show that the biggest challenge in this community is underdevelopment. Participants in this region have stated that, while society is divided along ethnic lines, other problems include non-recognition of degrees awarded in Kosovo; the prolonged presence of armed forces in this region; and lack of freedom of movement for the people living in Kosovo.

This case study is a product of project The People’s Peacemaking Perspectives, a joint initiative implemented by Conciliation Resources and Saferworld and financed under the European Commission’s Instrument for Stability.
