Opis produktu:
"The Yugoslav War of the 1990s had many dimensions and in many ways ushered in change in the world, all of which gave it an unusual degree of complexity. James Gow unravels this complexity and takes us to the core of the issue: statehood. From the perspective of the various Yugoslav fighters the war was about the attempt to secure state borders. For those outside Yugoslavia, the question became the status of borders and the principle of not using armed force to alter them. Atrocities were committed as a deliberate feature of the strategy to secure borders and this book explains how the international community was galvanised into action in response. Not only military intervention followed, but changes in the international legal and political systems as well. The Yugoslav War discusses some of the most important, and horrifying themes of modern war - ethnic cleansing, war crimes and crimes against humanity - and the new developments in humanitarian intervention that were taken to counter them. Including first hand accounts from, among others, a Bosnian Serb soldier and a civilian under siege in Sarajevo, this is a unique examination of the war."
