The Breakup of Yugoslavia and Its Aftermath: Revised Edition (Greenwood Press Guide to Historic Events of the Twentieth Century)by Carole Rogel
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Rogel, a leading U.S. specialist on Yugoslavia and the war in Bosnia, examines the breakup of Yugoslavia in 1991, the war in Bosnia, the peace settlement, and the problems that continue to exist in Bosnia and Serbia today. She provides information and analysis to help students understand the collapse of Tito's Yugoslavia, the causes and effects of the ensuing war, and the aftermath of the conflicts. Seven essays analyze the crisis, including two that focus on the aftermath of a decade strained with conflict and war, and the current conditions in the former Yugoslavia. Ready reference features include: Book News Annotation:While not entirely uncritical of the major Western powers, Rogel
(emeritus, history, Ohio State U.) hews fairly closely to their
standard narrative for understanding the disintegration of Yugoslavia
in the 1990s and the resulting warfare. Writing for a lay audience,
she explores the history of Tito's Yugoslavia, discusses the
development of the war in Bosnia-Hercegovina, the "collective
embarrassment" of the "bumbling" major powers in dealing with the
crisis, the war in Kosovo, and the war crimes tribunal in The Hague.
Also included are biographical sketches of important figures, a
glossary, a brief annotated bibliography, and a collection of primary
documents featuring UN resolutions and political declarations by
various actors.
