This policy brief brings Middle Eastern Studies to the Balkan peninsula in her examination of the use of counterterrorism measures against Bosnia and Herzegovina’s Muslim community.By connecting wartime narratives from the participation of the mujahideen in the Bosnian War to the labelling of national security threats and separatist movements in BiH, Mathieson emphasises the current intimidation and persecution faced by Muslim Bosniaks and highlights the necessity of an international definition of terrorism.
