If a community is founded on some property that some members cannot share, it will be unjust to some extent. Some members may accept such injustice in exchange for some advantages or under oppression. Various degrees of oppression may be accepted depending on the balance between the advantages and disadvantages imposed by the oppression. In a state for example, if it is founded on ethnicity, such a state would by definition be unjust and such a community would be therefore instable. I maintain that, for example, if looking for the solution to the actual problem of Kosovo a solution that contains the maximal amount of justice should be looked for and that the formation of an ethnic state should be avoided. In the end, I propose some models of the solutions and suggest that, while various solutions are probably possible, the basic strategy of the search for the solution should be an open frontier towards Serbia and justice preserving political solutions.

In this book the recent Balkan events are briefly mentioned, the geopolitical causes of those events analyzed, and the idea is advanced that a community or even a state may be founded on the property that all its members or citizens could share and that this "property" is justice. If a community is founded on some property that some members cannot share, it will be unjust to some extent. Some members may accept such injustice in exchange for some advantages or under oppression. Various degrees of oppression may be accepted depending on the balance between the advantages and disadvantages imposed by the oppression. In a state for example, if it is founded on ethnicity, such a state would by definition be unjust and such a community would be therefore instable. I maintain that, for example, if looking for the solution to the actual problem of Kosovo a solution that contains the maximal amount of justice should be looked for and that the formation of an ethnic state should be avoided. In the end, I propose some models of the solutions and suggest that, while various solutions are probably possible, the basic strategy of the search for the solution should be an open frontier towards Serbia and justice preserving political solutions.
