2. Conclusion
Ethnic membership dominant in both state and sub-state polities
Ethnic sub-state polities created in the aftermath of conflicts segregation, unidimensional territories
Imposed civic membership in polities such a Brčko problems of integration in ethnicised states
Bottom-up polities with civic membership tolerated in 2000s, challenge the zero-sum ethnoterritorial logic, functioning nested polities despite state-level ethnic membership
