Nearly twenty years after it ceased to exist as a multinational
federation, Yugoslavia still has the power to provoke controversy
and debate. Bringing together contributions from twelve of the
leading scholars of modern and contemporary South East Europe, this
volume explores the history of Yugoslavia from creation to
dissolution.
Drawing on the very latest historical research, this book
explains how the country came about, how it evolved and why,
eventually, it failed. From the start of the twentieth century,
through the First World War, the interwar years and the Second
World War, to the road to socialism under President Tito and the
wars of Yugoslav succession in the 1990s, this volume provides up
to date analysis of the causes and consequences of a range of
events that shaped the development of this remarkable state across
its various iterations. The book concludes by examining
post-conflict relations in the era of European integration.
Traversing ninety years of history, this volume presents a
fascinating story of how a country that once served as the model
for multiethnic states around the world has now become a byword for
ethno-national fragmentation and conflict.
Contributors include Dejan Djoki, James Ker-Lindsay, Connie
Robinson, Mark Cornwall, John Paul Newman, Tomislav Duli, Stevan K.
Pavlowitch, Dejan Jovi, Neboj a Vladisavljevi, Florian Bieber,
