ABSTRACT In this paper, we offer a possible interpretation of reconciliation in the former Yugoslav area. In a conflicting past and not-reconciled region, it is presumed that the truth should be the main pillar of reconciliation. However, according to our empirical analysis of 146 reconciliation projects implemented in the period between 2002 and 2015, there are many interpretations of truths in the region which are opposed to each other. These interpretations are the result of different national political constructions, supported by the dominant structures of the societies in question. Accordingly, instead of insisting on a single factual truth, we propose the introduction of the ‘agonistic dialogue’ principle, where multiple truths would coexist, thus turning former war enemies into political adversaries in the post-conflict setting.

有多少真相？前南斯拉夫的和解与激烈对话

摘要在本文中，我们为前南斯拉夫地区的和解提供了可能的解释。在过去的冲突地区和未和解的地区，人们认为真相应该是和解的主要支柱。但是，根据我们对2002年至2015年期间实施的146个和解项目的实证分析，该地区对真相的解释很多，彼此之间是相对的。这些解释是不同国家政治结构的结果，并受到有关社会主导结构的支持。因此，我们不是坚持一个单一的事实真相，而是提出了一种“激动性对话”原则，该原则将多个真相并存，从而在冲突后的环境中将以前的战争敌人变成政治对手。
