First published in 1997, this volume aims to present a new
perspective on the history of the Serbs in the twentieth century,
viewing this period through the lives of its most significant Serb
participants. Its contributors represent a diverse variety of
backgrounds, coming from different countries, academic disciplines,
intellectual traditions and generations. The aim of this book is to
present a new perspective on the history of the Serbs in the
twentieth century through the lives of its most significant Serb
participants. Nikola Pasic, Dragutin Dimitirjevic-Apis, Radomir
Putnik, King Peter, King Aleksandar, Prince Pavle, Dragoljub-Draza
Mihailovic and Slobodan Milosevic whose lives are profiled in the
books were, in the opinion of the editors, in position
significantly to shape the destiny of the Serbs. In reviewing their
life and achievements, the dilemmas facing the Serbs and their
leaders in the twentieth century should hopefully become clearer as
well. As each of the eight leaders exercised power and influence at
critical times, each of them is in many ways still a controversial
figure. In order to provide the necessary historical background, in
the first chapter Peter Radan offers a brief overview and
assessment of the course of the history of the Serbs during the
twentieth century.
