Publisher Synopsis
'An impressive collection of essays that provides valuable insight into the forces of change that have buffeted the former Yugoslavia since the end of the Cold War. Blitz has brought together in a single volume some of the world's leading scholars, journalists and diplomats to produce an excellent guide to this troubled region.' Dr Richard Caplan, University of Oxford and author of Europe and the Recognition of New States in Yugoslavia 'War and Change in the Balkans will smash some of the major illusions and myths about the Yugoslav break-up and wars. It is full of good sense and a welcome corrective to the various contrived explanations which abound in the field of Yugoslav studies. Brad Blitz and his contributors bring clarity, integrity, and insight to their task and have produced a volume which will be useful for specialists, generalists, practitioners, and students alike.' Professor Sabrina P. Ramet, Norwegian University of Science and Technology and author of Balkan Babel: The Disintegration of Yugoslavia from the Death of Tito to the Fall of Milo evic and Thinking about Yugoslavia: Scholarly Debates about the Yugoslav Breakup and the Wars in Bosnia and Kosovo '... this volume contains an impressive array of perspectives, bringing contributors from a broad range of backgrounds including diplomacy, NGO's, journalism, law and academia. ... Through the breadth of its scope, this volume should appeal to both new students of the Balkans and advanced scholars. It provides a valuable insight into a traumatic period in modern European history and will add stimulus to unresolved debates.' Journal of Peace Research 'This book can be commended for its multi-faceted, opinion-forming approach and the variety of materials on the subject that it offers.' The Slavonic and East European Review (SEER) Read more...
