THE CONSTRUCTIVE AND UNIVERSAL PARADIGM OF ISLAM IN THE BALKAN AND THE CHALLENGES OF THE PEACE IN THE FUTURE

Summary/Abstract: We can determinably conclude that the Muslims of the Balkan have built their identity subject to the constructive and universal Islamic paradigm, regardless of one’s nationality. Altogether they are still an autochthon nation of the West, having in mind these elements it is thus inevitable for them to build their identity in complete scope. The Balkanic Muslims have confronted the newly world movements, the global developments, democracy, liberalism and so forth. Islamic religions in the Balkan region was rather conveyed and understood by its cosmopolitan nature, which the other religions did not consist. The classical Islamic civilization was not pluralist in the contemporary sense, it was rather cosmopolitan. The Balkans was the example which most accurately portrays the protection of the personal identity through the paragon of Islam.
