Once it was hoped that the Yugoslav federation might manage to defy the odds once more, this time to become one of the world’s few examples of democratic pluralism. Instead, we are witnessing another Balkan tragedy. What went wrong?

Yugoslavia and its history are often in the news yet poorly understood. Traversing the politics, economics, demography, and culture of the former Yugoslavia, John B. Allcock examines and makes sense of the region´s troubled past and troubling present. Though many think of the Balkans as a uniquely troubled region, the author asserts that the continuities in Balkan history constitute the same processes of development that have occurred in other societies and are part of the ongoing process of global modernization.

Misha Glenny’s acclaimed account of the war in former Yugoslavia contains substantial new material that discusses the end of the five-year conflict and looks ahead to an uneasy future in this turbulent region. Writing in the "Evening Standard", Fitzroy Maclean said ’Misha Glenny’s deeply disturbing book is, to my mind, essential reading for anyone trying to understand, or even just follow, events in what was once Yugoslavia’.

Completely updated and revised from the original German edition, Yugoslavia is the definitive history of the troubled region. Focusing primarily on the 80s and 90s, Viktor Meier covers the disintegration and collapse of Yugoslavia. Meier discusses all regions of Yugoslavia, clearly illuminating a complex history filled with competing parties, factions, religions and cultures. One of the few books to offer a view other than Belgrade, this study is extraordinary in range, drawing on federal and republican archives that will not be open for some time.
