Sažetak

The article is focused on the Muslim (minority) communities in the countries of South-Eastern Europe with the emphasis on the contemporary conditions, especially after the fall of communism and the crisis in the former Yugoslavia, by taking into account the social and historical context. Some specific qualities in the relation between majority and minority population within certain countries we pointed out. The aim is as well to identify socio-political, i.e. ethno-religious factors "responsible" for the position of Muslim minorities in the relevant political communities. In this context the basic question arises about to what extent the influence of lslam is nowadays, considering positive changes as regards the position of religion from 1990s onward, but also in the context of the recent war clashes and sufferings of Muslims in this part of Europe. Namely, the question poses itself about the correlation of Muslim identity towards the ethnic/national among the Muslim communities in the region. After a short introduction, special reports follow on Albania, Bulgaria, Greece, Kosovo and Macedonia. Just for the comparison, a short account is given on the specific experience of Muslims in Bosnia and Herzegovina with regards to other Muslim communities in Balka11 states; the issue about the position of Muslim, Bosniac, minority in Croatia is only touched upon in the note.
