Abstract
The paper examines to what extent the policies of the United States and West European countries and international organisations affect ethno-confessional segmentation, political attitudes of religious leaders and institutions and contribute to the goal of stabilisation and peaceful reintegration of the successor states of former Yugoslavia to Europe and the wider world, which most of them purport to achieve. It does so by three-tier level analysis into: 1) Symbolic promotion of religious leadership; 2) Political, legal and financial involvement and policies; 3) Fostering interfaith dialogue and reconciliation.
