Book Conflict in Southeastern Europe at the End of the Twentieth Century

Download or read book Conflict in Southeastern Europe at the End of the Twentieth Century written by Thomas Emmert and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-18 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dissolution of Yugoslavia and the tragic wars that followed continue to engage scholars throughout the region and the world. Ever since the fall of Slobodan Miloševic, the Scholars’ Initiative, an international consortium of over 250 scholars, has endeavored to study the period 1986-2000 as critically and objectively as possible. It believes that ongoing research, discussion, and publication of its work will help bridge the chasm that separates serious historical scholarship from those interpretations that nationalist politicians and media in the former Yugoslavia have impressed on their populations. This collection of articles reflects new research by ten of the Initiative’s scholars and offers analysis of a wide spectrum of issues. It examines the roots of the violent collapse of Yugoslavia, considers the impact of the dissolution on minority groups, tackles some of the controversies concerning Kosovo, evaluates the most recent evidence in the controversy concerning responsibility for the deadly artillery attacks against civilians during the long siege of Sarajevo, assesses the performance of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia in its trial of Miloševic, and examines the very sensitive process in Serbia of facing its violent past in the aftermath of the tragedy. This book was previously published as a special issue of Nationalities Papers.

  • Publisher : Scarecrow Press
  • Release : 2010-05-20
  • ISBN : 1461731755
  • Pages : 620 pages

Download or read book The A to Z of Slovenia written by Leopoldina Plut-Pregelj and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2010-05-20 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than 1,300 years Slovenes had lived in Eastern Europe without having a separate Slovene state, but in December of 1990, they voted for independence, or, put more appropriately, for "disassociation" from Yugoslavia. Unfortunately, Slovenia had to fight for its independence, which it did not fully achieve until 1995 after its bloody disintegration with Yugoslavia was over. Since independence, however, Slovenia has prospered; its economy is far ahead of other former communist states and in 2004 Slovenia acceded to both NATO and the European Union, the only republic of former Yugoslavia to do so. The A to Z of Slovenia covers the history of Slovenia and its struggle to gain independence from communism. This is done through a detailed chronology, an introduction, appendixes, a bibliography, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on some of the more significant persons, places, and events; institutions and organizations; and political, economic, social, cultural, and religious facets.

Book Citizenship in Historical Perspective

Download or read book Citizenship in Historical Perspective written by Steven G. Ellis and published by Plus. This book was released on 2006 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume looks at the past and the present of European citizenship, and, by implication, its future. The aim of the investigation is theoretical and practical. It is based on the conviction that knowledge is essential for decision making, political or otherwise; and that more knowledge is needed to make decisions about European citizenship. Attitudes towards such vital political and ethical issues as 'citizenship' are commonly based on general impressions and opinions, rather than on a critically-founded understanding. As historians and specialists in other social and human sciences, we believe it is our duty to contribute to the common patrimony of understanding and insight, so that informed citizens can make informed decisions. One part of the book is called Work, gender and society. it contains the articles from Waaldijk, Laikos and Hageman.

This book was released on 2000-10-19 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The war in Kosovo was a turning point: NATO deployed its armed forces in war for the first time, and placed the controversial doctrine of 'humanitarian intervention' squarely in the world's eye. It was an armed intervention for the purpose of implementing Security Council resolutions-but without Security Council authorization.This report tries to answer a number of burning questions, such as why the international community was unable to act earlier and prevent the escalation of the conflict, as well as focusing on the capacity of the United Nations to act as global peacekeeper.The Commission recommends a new status for Kosovo, 'conditional independence', with the goal of lasting peace and security for Kosovo-and for the Balkan region in general. But many of the conslusions may be beneficially applied to conflicts the world-over.
