Modern Balkan history has traditionally been studied by national historians in terms of separate national histories taking place within bounded state territories. The authors in this volume take a different approach. They all seek to treat the modern history of the region from a transnational and relational perspective in terms of shared and connected, as well as entangled, histories, transfers and crossings. This goes along with an interest in the way ideas, institutions and techniques were selected, transferred and adapted to Balkan conditions and how they interacted with those conditions, resulting in mélanges and hybridization. The volume also invites reflection on the interacting entities in the very process of their creation and consecutive transformations rather than taking them as givens.

"Autori ovoga djela stavili su naglasak na stil i na zavidno visoku znanstvenu razinu svoga rada. Svako poglavlje završava prilično dobrim i opširnim sažetkom što teze predstavljene u tekstu čini vrlo preglednim. Neka se poglavlja po sadržaju jako poklapaju no ipak je čitatelj oslobođen od potrebe čitanja knjige glavu po glavu. Baš nasuprot tome, poglavlja su koncipirana kao samostalna te svako po sebi predstavlja mali rad. Knjiga završava kazalom imena i pojmova (str. 587-595). Ovo je veoma stručno napisano djelo, koje karakterizira sveobuhvatno istraživanje temeljeno na opežnoj literaturi i višegodišnjem istraživačkom radu. Vrijedan je doprinos istraživanju povijesti ideologija i političkih pokreta na Balkanu.
Cijelo je djelo, a posebice dijelovi koji su usredotočeni na hrvatsku povijest ponajprije preporučljivi povjesničarima koji se bave poviješću NDH, seljačkim pokretima i drugim temama moderne povijesti. Čitanjem knjige može se iz nadregionalno kontekstualiziranih prikaza naći poticaje i ideje koji će budućim radovima vjerojatno biti od velike koristi."
