Yugoslavia Death Of A Nation by Laura Silber and Allan Little
Death of a Nation
An investigative history of the violent breakup of a multiethnic federation in the 1990s, it traces how nationalist leaders manipulated fear, media, and state institutions to dismantle a country and unleash wars in Croatia and Bosnia. Drawing on eyewitness accounts and insider testimony, it reconstructs pivotal decisions—from party purges and mass rallies to paramilitary campaigns and ethnic cleansing. It scrutinizes the failures and hesitations of Western diplomacy and UN peacekeeping, highlighting missed chances to prevent escalation. The result is a clear, deeply reported account of responsibility and consequence in Europe’s worst conflict since World War II.
