Thinking about Yugoslavia :scholarly debates about the Yugoslav breakup and the wars in Bosnia and Kosovo /Sabrina P. Ramet. - 1 online resource (xvii, 328 pages) :digital, PDF file(s).

Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015).

Debates about the war -- The collapse of East European communism -- The roots of the Yugoslav collapse -- Who's to blame, and for what? : rival accounts of the war -- Memoirs and autobiographies -- The scourge of nationalism and the quest for harmony -- Milošević's place in history -- Dilemmas in post-Dayton Bosnia -- Crisis in Kosovo/a / (with Angelo Georgakis) -- Debates about intervention -- Lands and peoples : Bosnia, Croatia, Slovenia, Serbia -- Southern republics : Macedonia and Montenegro in contemporary history -- Conclusion : controversies, methodological disputes, and suggested reading.

The Yugoslav break up and conflict have given rise to a considerable literature offering dramatically different interpretations of what happened. But just how do the various interpretations relate to each other? This ambitious new book by Sabrina Ramet, an eminent commentator on recent Balkan politics and history, reviews and analyses more than 130 books about the troubled region and compares their accounts, theories, and interpretations of events. Ramet surveys the major debates which divide the field, alternative accounts of the causes of Yugoslavia's violent collapse, and the scholarly debates concerning humanitarian intervention. Rival accounts are presented side by side for easy comparison. Thinking about Yugoslavia examines books on Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Macedonia, Montenegro, and Kosovo which were published in English, German, Serbian/Croatian/Bosnian, and Italian, thus offering the English-speaking reader a unique insight into the controversies.
