The centenary of the „Great War" not only inspired the memory on this "great seminal catastrophe of this century", but has also reopened the question of its interpretation and description. Within these discussions the Balkans have also gained an increased importance. Following the concept of a "modern" military-history, the volume puts the "event, experiences and memory" at its center and thus seeks to integrate South-Eastern Europe more into the comparative picture of the "Great War".Die 100-jährige Wiederkehr des Ersten Weltkriegs hat nicht nur die Erinnerung an diese „Urkatastrophe" des 20. Jahrhunderts beflügelt, sondern auch scheinbar ausdiskutierte Fragen seiner Beschreibung und Deutung neuerlich belebt. Dabei hat mit dem Balkan auch derjenige Raum an Bedeutung gewonnen, von dem der Krieg seinen Ausgangspunkt genommen hat. Der Band beleuchtet „Ereignis, Erfahrung und Erinnerung" an den Krieg der Jahre 1914 bis 1918 auf dem Balkan und trägt damit zu einer noch stärkeren Integration Südosteuropas in das Bild des „Großen Krieges" bei.

Werner Weidenfeld Since the signing of the Treaties of Rome in 1957, Western European history has been an ongoing process integrating and enlarging European institutions. Over the course of that time, the institutions now known as the European Union have become a major pillar for the security and stability for Europe as a whole. These essential functions can only be perpetuated if the Union can project its capacities and capabilities beyond its current borders. Today's European agenda is defined by integration. Offering prospects for membership in the EU has been a successful instrument for helping shape the transition in East Central Europe. The imminent first round of enlargement also calls for a deep ening of EU integration, which should be resolved through the EU Convention. While the European Union is preparing for ten new member states, developments in Europe are far from standing still. The countries beyond the EU's future borders in Eastern Europe and the Balkans are undertaking a threefold process of national con solidation, transition to a market economy and strengthening parliamentary democ racy. These processes entail risks that range from authoritarian regimes to armed es calation in Southeastern Europe. These risks have a direct impact on European secu rity and stability. At the same time, some areas of internal transition are making seri ous strides toward Western standards. For this reason, simply reducing Eastern and Southeastern Europe to a set of risks threatens to create a self-fulfilling prophecy.
