GIL FONS, Antonio  e  NIEVES CAMACHO, Alejandra. The Dispute over “Macedonia”: Origin, Development and Consequences of a Conflict over Identity. Foro int [online]. 2016, vol.56, n.4, pp.1088-1124. ISSN 0185-013X.

Since 1991, the Former Yugoslavian Republic of Macedonia and Greece have maintained a serious diplomatic conflict that has internal, bilateral and international ramifications due to the use of the term “Macedonia” as part of the constitutional name of the Balkan republic. The paper examines the origins and character of this dispute, and its implications for the development of national policy in Skopje, exemplified in the blocking of negotiations for joining the European Union and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Taking as a reference the concept of “deep forces” coined by Renouvin and Duroselle, an analysis is made of the influence of factors such as national sentiment and nationalism in the construction, development and survival of this conflict over identity.

Palavras-chave : Macedonia; FYROM; Republic of Macedonia; deep forces; nationalism.
