Although our attention has been turned toward Afghanistan
and the war on terrorism, the Balkans remains a place where the
international community has focused much of its attention and resources.
This slide presentation and running commentary, which is based on a recent
Fulbright to the University of Sarajevo, will provide a glimpse of what
Bosnia and Herzegovina and Kosovo are like today.
