Abstract
This paper aims to contribute some contemporary fieldwork insights
from Macedonia to discussions on the coexistence of Muslims (both
Sunni and Sufi) and Orthodox Christians around sacred sites. While
recent developments have led to the dominance of ‘clash of civilisations’
discourse in such situations, I here use detailed studies of the three
sites where intercommunal mixing occurs to evidence a range of
different modalities of interaction, spanning a spectrum from overt
antagonistic intolerance through non-conflictual cohabitation to
forms of sharing close to syncretistic practice. The paper investigates
the elements of the social fields engaged by these communities that
prompt hostility, permit coexistence, and promote identification, and
inquires whether the more benign forms of interaction currentlymanifest in Macedonia are atavistic in settings increasingly marked
by ethno-nationalism and fundamentalism.
