Providing an indispensable resource for students and policy makers
investigating the Bosnian catastrophes of the 1990s, this book
provides a comprehensive survey of the leaders, ideas, movements,
and events pertaining to one of the most devastating conflicts of
contemporary times. In the three years of the Bosnian War, well
over 100,000 people lost their lives, amid intense carnage. This
led to unprecedented criminal prosecutions for genocide, war
crimes, and crimes against humanity that are still taking place
today. Bosnian Genocide: The Essential Reference Guide is the first
encyclopedic treatment of the Balkan conflicts of the period from
1991 to 1999. It provides broad coverage of the nearly decade-long
conflict, but with a major focus on the Bosnian War of 1992-1995.
The book examines a variety of perspectives of the conflicts
relating to Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia, and
Kosovo, among other developments that took place during the years
spotlighted. The entries consider not only the leaders, ideas,
movements, and events relating to the Bosnian War of 1992-1995 but
also examine themes from before the war and after it. As such,
coverage continues through to the Kosovo Intervention of 1999,
arguing that this event, too, was part of the conflict that
purportedly ended in 1995. This work will serve university students
undertaking the study of genocide in the modern world and readers
interested in modern wars, international crisis management, and
peacekeeping and peacemaking. Provides nearly 150 entries-written
in a clear and concise style by leading international
authorities-that summarize the roles of the leaders involved in the
Bosnian Conflict of 1992-1995 and beyond as well as contextualizing
essays on various facets of the Bosnian Conflicts Considers and
evaluates the various strategies adopted by members of the
international community in trying to bring the war to an end Edited
