Bringing together twelve experts from nine countries, this volume explores intelligence and diplomatic activities, both historical and contemporary, in the Balkan region. Covering a wide range of periods and radically different historical conditions, the various contributions are united by a common theme: the intimate relationship between diplomacy and intelligence. Subjects include: the Venetian dragomans of Zara; ‘informal diplomacy’ between Bulgaria and Turkey; ‘diplomacy without a state’ (Adam Czartoryski’s ‘embassy’ in Paris); diplomacy and diplomats in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia (1918-1943); case studies on diplomats Otto von Essen, Stojan Novakovič, Adam Czartoryski, Josip Djerdja, and Jovan Dučić; British policy toward Albania during the Second World War; diplomatic relations between Switzerland and Albania; the 1992 ‘arms delivery scandal’ in Bulgaria; and the normalization of Bulgarian bilateral relations with Turkey. "A volume of notable orginality, both in respecte of its disciplinary contribution to the history of intelligence and diplomacy, but also in its geographical focus. As is demonstrated admirably in this collection of papers, the Balkans have been down the centuries and remain an area of competing strategic interests." - Dennis Deletant, Emeritus Professor, School of Slavonic and East European Studies, University College London

The result of a research project by the Balkan Historical Association, this landmark edited collection explores various aspects of Russian influence in the Balkan region over the past three centuries. The concepts of Pan-Slavism and the Slavic brotherhood are well established due to long-established historical, religious and cultural ties. But relations between the Balkan countries and Russia have never been static. In this context, the authors of this volume aim to address Russia’s changing interests in the Balkans, and the responses from Balkan countries and other Great Power competitors. Perhaps most importantly, what might this long and complex historical engagement mean for the future of the area and for possible conflicts to come? The volume, which is a project initiated by the Balkan History Association brings together an impressive range of disciplinary expertise to address these questions and many others, and will be of interest to all those engaged in historical research on South-East Europe.
