Broken bonds : Yugoslavia's disintegration and Balkan politics in transition

Boulder and London: Westview Press, 1993. Book. Very Good. Trade Paperback. First Trade. xvi, 299 p. : ill., maps ; 24 cm, biblio., index. Slight label remnant to cover, previous owner's name on half-title page, else unmarked and undamaged. "First past the post with a scholarly study of the former Yugoslavia's disintegration and ongoing civil war, Lenard Cohen manages to bring his eminently reliable account into early 1993 and covers the controversy over the Vance-Owen plan for Bosnia. He uses his long acquaintance as a politicial scientist with matters Yugoslav (and Serba, Croat and Slovene) to link the bloody brutalities in Croatia and Bosnia-Hervegovina since 1991 with the political impasse that precipitated the fighting. A highly accessible book for students that includes a lenghty introduction on Yugoslavism from the nineteenth century to Tito's death in 1980.".
