This article discusses Fredrik Barths approach to the problem of ethnicity based on a wide-ranging analysis of his work. Analysis focuses on various key ideas recurrent in the authors programmatic and theoretical-methodological writings, as well as his ethnographic studies. A critical evaluation is made of the explicatory power of ecological and demographic factors in his model, the importance of his thesis of relative identity, the genealogy of theoretical influences found in Barthian explanations and the problem of the rational actor as the binding element in his interactionist conception of social relations.

"Današnji odnos između Srba i Albanaca, iako primiren, preti da preraste u tzv. zamrznuti sukob (frozen conflict) što bi kočilo ne samo razvijanje normalnih odnosa između ove dve društvene grupe i izgradnji održivog suživota na području Kosova i Metohije, već i predstavljalo opasnost za ponovno oživljavanje nasilnog aspekta odnosa dve grupe. Iako su određeni pomaci u stvaranju održivog mira napravljeni u poslednjih godinu dana, mišljena smo da, bez duboke analize srpsko-albanskih odnosa i otkrivanju ključnih faktora u odnosima ove dve grupe, pomaci koji su napravljeni neće dovesti do transformacije odnosa (sukoba). Konkretnije, da li su elementi koji definišu dugotrajne društvene sukobe prisutni i u kojoj meri u odnosima između dve grupe?

Azar smatra da ovakve sukobe karakterišu nasilje i dugotrajnost, kao i njihova hroničnost i odsustvo vidljivog i održivog rešenja sukoba. Uzroke tj. osnovne elemente dugotrajnih društvenih sukoba vidi u deprivaciji tri osnovne ljudske potrebe: bezbednost, pravična ekonomska i politička participacija (potreba za pristupom) i priznanje i prihvatanje različitih grupnih identiteta (potreba za prihvatanjem). Takođe, Edvard E. Azar nudi i preporuke za moguća održiva rešenja dugotrajnih društvenih sukoba, koja se pre svega odnose na podsticanje razvoja (u najširem smislu te reči) kao i na poštovanje grupnih identiteta. Isto tako, bitan faktor u postizanju održivog mira su protok vremena i uloga Treće strane, kao medijatora u sukobu. Relevatnost ovih preporuka, ali pre svega primenljivost same teorije o dugotrajnim društvenim sukobima na konkretan sukob, biće proverena u ovom radu.

From the 1980s onwards, much research has been carried out in order to analyze and compare the situation and the management of religious plurality in Western countries. While scholars in the social sciences of religion have seized on the question of plurality, those in migration studies have started to pay more and more attention to the religious dimension of migrants and their descent. Although macro-level plurality is more commonly investigated, internal religious plurality is of equal importance. This article provides a critical review of the various approaches of religious pluralism and emphasizes some under-investigated areas such as conflicts and internal plurality.
