The Yugoslav state of the interwar period was a child of the Great
European War. Its borders were superimposed onto a topography of
conflict and killing, for it housed many war veterans who had
served or fought in opposing armies (those of the Central Powers
and the Entente) during the war. These veterans had been
adversaries but after 1918 became fellow subjects of a single
state, yet in many cases they carried into peace the divisions of
the war years. John Paul Newman tells their story, showing how the
South Slav state was unable to escape out of the shadow cast by the
First World War. Newman reveals how the deep fracture left by war
cut across the fragile states of 'New Europe' in the interwar
period, worsening their many political and social problems, and
bringing the region into a new conflict at the end of the interwar
period.
