How do different degrees of displaced people's hardship shape their expectations of peace and violence in post-conflict societies? We develop a novel explanation and empirically examine it using survey data collected in Bosnia Herzegovina in 2013. The displaced may suffer by being the target of the hostility of opposing groups and/or by receiving little support from, or being mistreated by, their own groups and international actors. As a result, they develop negative opinions about these actors, friend and foe alike, become pessimistic about the possibility of cooperation, and see post-conflict peace as unsustainable. We find those who have suffered greater hardship during displacement are more likely to foresee political violence. Hardship during displacement is also a stronger predictor than the experience of violence. Our analysis implies that, while violence does have an impact as suggested by the literature, other hardship during displacement, such as the lack of support, also matters.

This paper analyzes the basic theological foundations of John XI Bekkos, a
Unionist Patriarch from the XIII century. Particular attention is paid to
flori?legium known as Epigraphai, wherein Bekkos endeavoured to find
patristic support for his views and show that Eastern and Western Christian
traditions are actually compatible. Bekkos? theses presented in this work -
including his apology of filioque, which he relates to the doctrine of the
Eastern Church on procession of the Holy Spirit ?through Son? - were
criticized by Gregory Palamas in his work Antepigraphai. After exposition of
the key features of this work and (final) determination of its chronology,
we bring an editio princeps of its Serbian Church-Slavonic translation from
the XIV century. A Chilandar transcript from the end of the XIV century is
taken as a source text, but it is compared with other six known transcripts
of this translation.
