Books: HIstory - Memory and Identity at the Borders of the Balkans
Author: Pamela Ballinger Publisher: Princeton University Press, 2002 ISBN: 0691086974 ISBN: 978-0691086972 Based on fieldwork conducted in Trieste and Rovinj, this book examines the lives and identities of Italians and their families who were exiled after the state borders were re-drawn at the end of the Second World War. Its principle focus is on the narratives surrounding this exile, on both sides of the state borders and the relationship between these narratives. Although this is a book that is intended for an anthropological audience, and is thus written in scholarly language that concentrates on themes that are primarily of interest to anthropologists, it would perhaps be interesting for anyone who is living in Istria, or wants to learn more about Istria.
