Abstract

This book examines the causes and consequences of ethnic cleansing in the twentieth century Balkans. The analysis offers a top-down interpretation of the expulsion of ethno-national minorities as a means of state-building and questions the argument for forced homogenization as a conflict resolution strategy. In providing a thorough and consistent analysis of large-scale episodes of ethinic cleansing, the book fills an important gap in existing conflict and peace studies literature.

Abstract

Inventor of cine-trance, unclassifiable French filmmaker, author of around 140 films including the unsurpassable Moi, un Noir et Cocorico! - Monsieur Poulet , Jean Rouch has established himself as one of the great contemporary creators. Rouch "has never really been identified as belonging to the community of professional filmmakers. He was a sniper. An ethnologist and filmmaker ... A pleasant prankster, ”writes Michel Marie in his Preface.What genre do his works belong to? Documentary or fiction? What is the share of improvisation? What technical choices are favored? What real relationship do these films have with the New Wave? What is his posterity: Pasolini, Depardon?Maxime Scheinleigel, familiar with the universe of this filmmaker, offers us here a nourished and sensitive monograph of Jean Rouch, a universal spirit at the crossroads of cultures.
