Radovan Karadzic, leader of the Bosnian Serb nationalists during
the Bosnian War (1992-5), stands accused of genocide and other
crimes of war before the International Criminal Tribunal for the
former Yugoslavia in The Hague. This book traces the origins of the
extreme violence of the war to the utopian national aspirations of
the Serb Democratic Party and Karadzic's personal transformation
from an unremarkable family man to the powerful leader of the
Bosnian Serb nationalists. Based on previously unused documents
from the tribunal's archives and many hours of Karadzic's
cross-examination at his trial, the author shows why and how the
Bosnian Serb leader planned and directed the worst atrocities in
Europe since the Second World War. This book provocatively argues
that postcommunist democracy was a primary enabler of mass
atrocities because it provided the means to mobilize large numbers
of Bosnian Serbs for the campaign to eliminate non-Serbs from
conquered land.
