FECL 43 (April/May 1996)

Frontiers - the Challenge of Interculturality: International Conference, Belgrade, 30 May - 1 June 1996.

The objective of the conference is to discuss the possibility of conceiving the frontier - in contrast to the dominant political definition of the frontier as a limiting, preventing and prohibitive factor - as an area of mutual exchange of cultures, coexistence of various entities, understanding among members of various nations and confessions, as well as among people of various political beliefs. Reasons for opening public discussion of this issue in the Balkans today seem self-evident.
