I think that most of Macedonia’s citizens – regardless of ethnicity, class, or any other marker of identity – simply desire to see – and experience – Macedonia as a normal country. And what is “normal” in today’s hot mess of a world? An American president – Warren Harding (elected in 1920), campaigned in part on a return to “normalcy” as he called it, as the country was coming out of World War I. And he defined normalcy as “a regular steady order of things.”
