Book excerpt: In May 1998, the Department of Defense instituted a decentralized psychological screening program for redeployed soldiers stationed in Bosnia. The psychological portion of the Joint Medical Surveillance Screening Program has three components. (1) All personnel complete a primary screen consisting of three psychological scales measuring post-traumatic stress, depression, and alcohol abuse. (2) Personnel who exceed criteria on any of these scales complete a secondary screen interview conducted by mental health personnel. (3) If necessary, personnel are then referred to a mental health professional in-theater or at their home station. More than 4,000 Task Force Eagle troops were screened on site at nine base camps in Bosnia. The vast majority of these soldiers (95%) completed the screening process without a referral. A relationship between the length of time deployed and primary screen and referral rates emerged from the data. As soldiers deployed longer, a higher percentage tended to score positive on the psychological screen. Junior enlisted soldiers were positive on the psychological screen more frequently than senior enlisted and officers. Decentralized screening offers numerous benefits to soldiers. For example, soldiers benefit from mental health services who might otherwise might not seek or receive help.
Download or read book The Dark Tourism of the Bosnian Screen written by Edward Alexander and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2015-05-29 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How is it possible that despite the destruction of its infrastructure during the Siege of Sarajevo in the 1990s, Bosnian cinema rapidly rose to claim many of the most prestigious awards in world cinema during the 2000s? Were Bosnian films simply ‘better' than those from neighbouring post-Yugoslav countries? Perhaps not. This work proposes that the international success of Bosnian films since the turn of the millennium has been due to how they enact Western prejudices concerning the war and its consequences. Delivering films with national narratives which associate the country with primitiveness and victimhood, Western audiences have engaged in dark tourism of the Bosnian screen.
Download or read book Peacebuilding and Civil Society in Bosnia Herzegovina written by Martina Fischer (historicus) and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2006 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dayton Accords ended the war in Bosnia-Herzegovina in 1995. The 10th anniversary gives reason to investigate the post-war period, today's realities and future perspectives. Bosnian authors and international experts express their views on recent developments. Insiders and outsiders, working in the conflict and on its transformation, have been invited to tackle the questions: Which conflict lines mark the present society? Did peacebuilding activities address the underlying causes? What are obstacles for conflict transformation? What are the potentials and limits of international support? What does "civil society" mean in Bosnia and how is it related to statebuilding and democratisation? How can people constructively deal with the past in order to design the future in the region of former Yugoslavia? The book gives an overview on an important research focus of the Berghof Research Center, highlighting the work of its most important cooperation partners.

Download or read book Genetic Counseling and Preventive Medicine in Post War Bosnia written by Philip C. Aka and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-09-29 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genetic Counseling and Preventive Medicine in Post-War Bosnia offers a unique new perspective to longstanding debates on healthcare reforms in Bosnia. In this penetrating analysis, Philip C. Aka argues that twenty-five years after the ethnic war that shook Bosnia and Herzegovina to its foundations, healthcare reforms are a function of preventive medicine, defined as genetic counselling, backed by tobacco and alcohol control. At its core, the book offers a fresh examination of healthcare reforms in Bosnia set in the multidisciplinary field of bioethics, supplemented by comparative health studies, and comparative human rights. By offering an extensive list of electronically accessible literature on healthcare accessible in the public domain, Aka delivers an exemplar of research possibilities in the Information Age.

Download or read book Reporting the Siege of Sarajevo written by Kenneth Morrison and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-14 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Siege of Sarajevo remains the longest siege in modern European history, lasting three times longer than the Battle of Stalingrad and over a year longer than the Siege of Leningrad. Reporting the Siege of Sarajevo provides the first detailed account of the reporting of this siege and the role that journalists played in highlighting both military and non-military aspects of it. The book draws on detailed primary and secondary material in English and Bosnian, as well as extensive interviews with international correspondents who covered events in Sarajevo from within siege lines. It also includes hitherto unpublished images taken by the co-author and award-winning photojournalist, Paul Lowe. Together Morrison and Lowe document a relatively short but crucial period in both the history of Bosnia & Herzegovina, the city of Sarajevo and the profession of journalism. The book provides crucial observations and insights into an under-researched aspect of a critical period in Europe's recent history.

Download or read book Hot Planet Cool Media written by Stephen Harper and published by Rudolf Steiner Press. This book was released on 2023-04-23 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Arab Spring and London riots through the era of Brexit and Trump, the Covid-19 pandemic and war in Europe, this volume collects eleven years of lively, informative and entertaining essays and polemics, focusing on media treatment of major world events, political entanglements and culture-war squabbles. Taking aim at the distortions and omissions of news reports and cultural narratives in the Western world, Stephen Harper highlights the dislocation between humanity's existential crisis and the failure of the corporate media to register its underlying causes – or even to entertain any real discussion of its solution. Instead, he argues, the media blithely serve the narrow interests of a global elite that is subjecting the planet to a reign of fire in the form of endless wars and ecological destruction. Harper reviews contemporary journalistic, cinematic and televisual coverage, engaging with broad cultural topics such as 'cancel culture', the incel phenomenon and Covid conspiracy theories, as well as key events like the debate between Jordan Peterson and Slavoj Žižek. For all its eclecticism, Hot Planet, Cool Media has an ideological cohesiveness, rejecting popular left and right political positions and advocating the cause of socialism or communism in the Marxian sense of a classless, leaderless, moneyless society.
