The long read: Across this fractured region, informal networks rule. So if you need to send something, ask someone who’s already going that way

I admittedly don’t know much about its historical background, but I found this a fascinating read about the legacy of the nineties’ Bosnian war that is still acutely felt throughout the region.

    Yeah, I grew up in neighbouring Hungary, and I remember the Kosovo war was often mentioned at the time by the adults around me, but as a child it felt like a world away, so alien from the peaceful society I grew up in :(

    It really struck me, while reading this article, how strongly it still affects the people living there. But of course it makes sense, it was only 25-30 years ago, barely a generation.
