Kosovo: Štrpce, a Model Serb Enclave?

October 2009

International Crisis Group

Abstract

"Kosovo: Štrpce, a Model Serb Enclave?", the latest briefing from the International Crisis Group, focuses on the Štrpce municipality, one of southern Kosovo’s largest Serb enclaves, to demonstrate how Serb communities can protect their interests within Kosovo’s constitutional order. In Štrpce good interethnic relations have survived the war, and the Brezovica ski resort and vacation areas offer real economic potential.
