Yugoslavia and its historians

Zusatztext "...nearly all of these essays are written, and written carefully and adroitly, by top-drawer scholars who seem to have been encouraged to convey a bit more passion than academic writing typically tolerates....This is a commendable collection that will have enduring value for specialists and libraries as well as for graduate and even undergraduate students." Informationen zum Autor Norman M. Naimark is Robert and Florence McDonnell Professor of East European Studies at Stanford University. His most recent book is Fires of Hatred: Ethnic Cleansing in Twentieth-Century Europe. Holly Case is a Ph.D. candidate at Stanford University. Klappentext Most of what has been written about the recent history of Yugoslavia and the fierce wars that have plagued that country has been produced by journalists, political analysts, diplomats, human rights organization, the United Nations, and other government and intergovernmental organizations. Professional historians of Yugoslavia, however, have been strangely silent about the wars and the breakup of the country. This book is an effort to end that silence. > Zusammenfassung The goal of this volume is to bring together insights from a distinguished group of American and European scholars of Yugoslavia to add depth to our historical understanding of that country's recent struggles.
