Abstract:
Thousands of books have been written on Yugoslavia's dissolution and the wars that followed in the 1990s. Most of them, however, deal with relations among the main ethno-nations of Yugoslavia, i.e., Serbs, Croats, Slovenes, Bosniaks (Muslims), Montenegrins, Macedonians and Albanians, and the effects on them of the dissolution and wars. Hungarians and Italians of Yugoslavia also suffered, and the wars affected their destiny; but these peoples have rarely been mentioned in the context of this history. It is the aim of this article to fill the gap.

Abstract:
In the states which formed on the territory of the former Yugoslavia, ethnic/national cultures are developing independently, alongside a parallel shared post-Yugoslav culture. This culture is not a continuation of the official cultural collaboration between the Yugoslav nations which took place when Yugoslavia existed, rather it is a new phenomenon. It is appearing in opposition to nationalism, against the closing off of culture into narrow ethno-national frames and is based on the genuine existence of a cultural unity older than the common state which was created from the common Yugoslav state itself. It seeks creative responses to the problems caused by the wars and collapse of Yugoslavia in the 1990s. It also looks for the appropriate analytical instruments. The author uses the Biblioteka XX vek (The 20th Century Library) as an example – the book series which he founded and publishes in the field of humanities and social sciences. The alternative post-Yugoslav culture is characterised by the high quality of what it offers. However, its protagonists are simultaneously criticised by the nationalist circles in power in the states formed after the dissolution of Yugoslavia, who consider the post-Yugoslav cultural unity an alleged national betrayal.

Abstract:
This article works from the double hypothesis that: (1) a Yugoslav socio-cultural space still exists in spite of the dissolution of the former Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia; and (2) the communities ‘occupying’ this space can be considered, in some measure, ‘diasporic’, if the ‘Yugoslav diaspora’ is defined by not only the geographic displacement of people but also by the loosening of connections between members of an ex-nation who still consider themselves a national community. The ‘space’ mapped in the article is the so-called ‘virtual space’ of the Web, including all websites that reconnect to the ‘cultural languages’ of the ‘past-country’. The author observes how these ‘different Yugoslavias’ are ‘staged’ and linked together on the Web, and verifies how some far-flung communities rally around the ‘virtual re-foundation’ and ‘virtual representations’ of Yugoslavia. The corpus is constituted mainly of ‘yugonostalgic’ websites that are subjected to a content analysis. The 191 websites of the corpus and the hypertextual map of their edges are analysed using semantic features together with other tools of categorization.

Abstract:
The causes of the collapse of the Yugoslav Federation can be found in many ways, but ‘nationalism’ is the most decisive. However, the issue of “should only the Serbian people be held responsible for the dissolution of Yugoslavia and the civil war?” is a very sensitive issue, and looking at the history of nationalism that existed before the formation of Yugoslavia shows that Serbia and other republics cannot be completely free from that responsibility. In this paper, we examine the historical development and characteristics of ‘nationalism’ in Yugoslavia, particularly in Serbia and Croatia, and based on this, the relationship between ‘literature’ and ‘nationalism’ in Serbia and Croatia around the 1990s. The Serbian and Croatian literary circles have clearly differentiated their position over the dissolution of Yugoslavia since 1991, while the Croatian literary community, which sought to gain independence from Yugoslavia, sought to find its national identity in literature and to make it as distinct as possible. Based on the overall position of Serbian and Croatian literary circles, we examine representative Serbian and Croatian writers who worked on literature around the breakup of Yugoslavia and the Bosnian civil war at the end of the 20th century.

Abstract:
The post-war political economy of Yugoslavia is analysed in terms of an interaction between patterns of international relations which have tended to peripheralise Yugoslavia and stubborn internal problems of centre-periphery relations. It is argued that the tendency for the West to give open-ended financial support to Yugoslavia for political reasons has in the past made it regrettably easy for Yugoslav governments to postpone decisive action on these internal problems. The present civil war situation in Yugoslavia, and the likely dissolution of the Yugoslav state, are explained in terms of a combination of unresolved centre-periphery problems and very poor economic performance over the past two decades or so. The analysis underlines the danger that economic aid may in the long run further destabilise countries suffering from this kind of domestic instability, and that processes of democratisation, highly desirable in themselves, may have similar results in the given circumstances.

Abstract:
Nostalgia for the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia,yugonostalgia, has become widespread throughout the former Yugoslavia. It takes various forms and expressions, but it represents a selective and largely embellished remembrance, influenced by the need of those who engage in it to escape from the unsatisfying present they live in. In most cases, yugonostalgia is a bittersweet craving for the past – passive, static, and restricted. The paper argues that the actions inspired by yugonostalgia not only can have an active, dynamic, and progressive face, but can also serve as an important factor in the reconciliation process among former Yugoslavs. With its focus on positive and inclusive aspects of the common socialist past, yugonostalgia has the potential to (re)connect the nostalgic subjects throughout the former Yugoslav space, helping them to overcome the alienation that resulted from the violent dissolution of the common state.

Abstract:
In this paper I deal with the ways in which the audience functions as a means of producing collectivities. I define audience as a material body that is a carrier of affective potential in a certain time and space. Taking Yugoslav popular music as an example, i.e. the concerts of performers from the territory of former Yugoslavia, I analyse two crucial issues: the audience at popular music concerts in Belgrade in the period after the dissolution of Yugoslavia, and the audience that is created virtually through social networks.

Abstract:
As “music of commitment,” in the period from the late 1970s to the late 1980s rock music in Yugoslavia had an important purpose of providing a popular-cultural outlet for the unique forms of socio-cultural critique that engaged with the realities and problems of Yugoslav society. The three “music movements” that embodied the new rock'n'roll spirit – New Wave, New Primitives, and New Partisans – used rock music to critique the country's “new socialist culture,” with the purpose of helping to eliminate the disconnect between the ideal and the reality of socialist Yugoslavia. This paper examines the New Partisans as the most radical expression of music of commitment through the works of its most important rock bands: Bijelo dugme, Plavi orkestar, and Merlin. The paper's argument is that the New Partisans’ socio-cultural engagement, animated by advocacy of Yugoslavism, was a counter-logic to the nationalist dissolution of a distinctly Yugoslav fabric of a socialist community in crisis. Thus, the movement's revolutionary “spirit of reconstruction” permeating its “poetics of the patriotic” was a mechanism of socio-cultural resistance to political, cultural and moral-ethical de-Yugoslavization of Yugoslav society. Its ultimate objective was to make the case that the only way into the future – if there was to be any – rested on strategic reanimation of the Partisan revolutionary past as the only viable socio-cultural foundation of the Yugoslav socialist community.

The article compares the careers of two men, Dobrica Ćosić and Vojislav Koštunica, who gained prominence as dissident intellectuals in the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and later served as presidents of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. After outlining the main features of each man's dissident career, the article traces how one aspect of each's thought – his conception of the Serbian national interest – evolved during his transition from intellectual to political engagement. While highlighting differences in Ćosić's and Koštunica's political careers, the article emphasises similarities in their national thought. In conclusion, it considers some general aspects of the dominant Serbian response to Yugoslavia's dissolution.

Abstract:
This thesis examines French relations with Yugoslavia in the twentieth century and its response to the federal republic’s dissolution in the 1990s. In doing so it contributes to studies of post-Cold War international politics and international diplomacy during the Yugoslav Wars. It utilises a wide-range of source materials, including: archival documents, interviews, memoirs, newspaper articles and speeches. Many contemporary commentators on French policy towards Yugoslavia believed that the Mitterrand administration’s approach was anachronistic, based upon a fear of a resurgent and newly reunified Germany and an historical friendship with Serbia; this narrative has hitherto remained largely unchallenged. Whilst history did weigh heavily on Mitterrand’s perceptions of the conflicts in Yugoslavia, this thesis argues that France’s Yugoslav policy was more the logical outcome of longer-term trends in French and Mitterrandienne foreign policy. Furthermore, it reflected a determined effort by France to ensure that its long-established preferences for post-Cold War security were at the forefront of European and international politics; its strong position in all significant international multilateral institutions provided an important platform to do so. Therefore, it was imperative for France that Yugoslav dissolution, and recognition of its successor states, be firmly anchored within a strongly European and international framework. Moreover, it was absolutely essential that the Yugoslav crisis did not threaten the Maastricht Treaty in 1991 nor the national referendum on its passing into law in September 1992. Therefore, French diplomacy stressed the primacy of a unified common European approach to the dissolution of Yugoslavia. Many of the methods employed in diplomacy towards, and peacekeeping within, Yugoslavia thus bore the hallmark of French initiative. In addressing these issues, this dissertation demonstrates that France played a far greater role in shaping the international response to the dissolution of Yugoslavia than previously acknowledged.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis examines the dissolution of Yugoslavia during 1991-2 and the involvement of a legal commission, known as the Badinter Arbitration Commission, in this process. This Commission was an ad hoc legal organ which was created for the purpose of assisting in the peaceful resolution of the conflict which erupted in Yugoslavia during the latter years of the Cold War and continued throughout the post-Cold war period. Whether it can truly be described as having been fully resolved remains to be seen. The thesis describes international events leading to the end of the Cold War, domestic events leading to Yugoslavia's dissolution and institutional responses leading to the creation of the Commission. The Commission's jurisprudence is analysed, with particular focus on the Commission's advice relating to issues surrounding the dissolution process. Having been mandated to operate in a civil conflict at a time of great turbulence in contemporary international relations, one cannot ignore certain issues of wider interest. Fundamentally, one must question whether Yugoslavia represents an international legal anomaly or evidences changes in international law and threats to international peace and security. One must seek to draw lessons from the way in which the Yugoslav conflict arose and the way in which a peaceful-settlement was sought if international law's current responses are to be assessed.

Full text
Abstract:
This study examines the literary production of five writers from the former Yugoslavia during the civil war of the 1990s. These writers include Semezdin Mehmedinović, Slobodan Selenić, Vladimir Arsenijević, Dubravka Ugrešić and David Albahari. The central concern of this thesis is to analyse the engagement of their literary narratives in relation to the actual and symbolic waging of war as these works respond, in equal measure, to destruction of homes (homeland) and populations as well as the discursive dissemination of national import. This thesis brings these writers together under the categories of war front, home front, and exile (or migratory movements) which provide a comparative bridge not predicated on the national dimension of the conflict in the former Yugoslavia. The first chapter considers Mehmedinović’s Sarajevo blues which attests to life under siege and under direct authority of warfare, military logic and the international media organ. The second chapter on Selenić and Arsenijević is schematized through the home front: the territory from which war is displaced (as a material force) but that still registers a change in socio-economic living conditions as a result of severe sanctioning throughout the 1990s. Chapters three and four are focused on the exilic and migratory movements of Ugrešić and Albahari respectively: the critical dimension of their narratives demonstrates the doubled perspective of being elsewhere and not at home, analysing and writing on the war with a clarity and distance which establishes the grounds for judgment. This thesis contributes to the academic knowledge on the subject of Yugoslavia’s break-up by redressing a discursive imbalance that was weighed in favour of social sciences and history. Discussing literary discourse in the context of war explicitly demands that literature be understood as socially relevant. This thesis corrects the paucity of material that has been devoted to examining the contribution of these writers while simultaneously demonstrating how literature can carve out a role of critique, autonomous from homogenizing discourses of the period.

Full text
Abstract:
The thesis addresses the question of how the essentialist and exclusivist representation of the Croatian nation that underlies the post-socialist democratic order came into being. It does so by examining the emergence of the Croatian Democratic Union’s nationalist discourse in the context of Yugoslavia's dissolution, revealing its historical specificity. The analysis covers the form of social division instituted by the Yugoslavian regime, the politicizations of the Croatian nation during the Croatian Spring movement (1968-1971), the identitary logics that underpinned Yugoslavia's constitutional order, their contestations and the emergence of the League of Communist of Serbia’s transformist project in the 1980s, the disarticulation of the form of social division instituted by the Yugoslavian regime, and the contending democratic discourses that emerged in the Socialist Republic Croatia during the first democratic elections (1990). Drawing on a combination of Poststructuralist Discourse Theory and James Tully’s work on constitutional development, the analysis develops a critical account of the `nationalist' CDU's emergence without reproducing the party’s own representations of its origins, social unity, division and Croatian nationhood. Central to this analysis is the broader movement from the Yugoslavian imaginary horizon to the `new’ myths that emerged in the process of its dissolution and the discursive constructions of the nation in this process. The thesis seeks to expose the limitations of CDU’s nationalist discourse and the complex process of political identity formation and dissolution that made the party’s emergence possible and that continues to shape Croatian politics today.

Abstract:
Il periodo immediatamente successivo alla fine della guerra fredda è caratterizzato da grandi cambiamenti, primo fra tutti la scomparsa di una delle due superpotenze che fino a quel momento si erano combattute in campo ideologico, economico e militare. Oltre al crollo dell’URSS, si assiste perciò anche al crollo di un sistema di equilibri che durava dalla fine del secondo conflitto mondiale. Gli Stati Uniti da una parte e, dall’altra, la Comunità Europea, che poi diverrà Unione Europea, stanno sviluppando nuovi approcci alla politica estera. In questo periodo molti cambiamenti stanno avvenendo anche nei Balcani e, in particolare, nello Stato jugoslavo: questo è il contesto in cui vanno inserite le vicende che porteranno alla dissoluzione della Jugoslavia e alle conseguenti guerre balcaniche. La storia della dissoluzione della Jugoslavia e l’analisi delle conseguenti guerre dei primi anni Novanta non sono facili da affrontare: la molteplicità di attori, le molte cause, le numerose teorie politiche, gli interessi dei leader jugoslavi e occidentali rendono complicato scegliere una sola chiave di lettura dell’intera vicenda. Nonostante la difficoltà nel circoscrivere l’argomento, questo lavoro cerca di focalizzare l’attenzione sulle politiche di USA ed UE in questo frangente. L’intreccio delle politiche statunitensi ed europee influenzerà le vicende jugoslave e, allo stesso tempo, forgerà il rapporto tra USA ed UE in ambito di politica estera. Al fine di analizzare al meglio la tematica presentata, la tesi è suddivisa in quattro capitoli: il primo tratta in termini generali della situazione di USA ed UE dopo la guerra fredda in ambito di politica estera; il secondo riassume per sommi capi la storia della Jugoslavia fino alla dissoluzione; il terzo si focalizza sulla guerra in Bosnia nel periodo 1992-1995; infine, il quarto cerca di riprendere le tematiche principali e di elaborare degli spunti di riflessione. In conclusione, la tesi si propone di dare un quadro generale delle politiche EU-US nella Jugoslavia dei primi anni ’90 con l’obiettivo di analizzare i nuovi rapporti e le nuove politiche tra Stati Uniti ed Unione Europea.

En puisant dans différentes traditions de l’histoire intellectuelle et en faisant appel au savoir cumulé par la sociologie des intellectuels, la thèse propose un examen critique de l’univers des sciences sociales en Serbie et en Croatie, de leur production et de leurs reconfigurations, durant la dissolution yougoslave, en se concentrant sur la période qui va de la disparition de la Ligue des Communistes de Yougoslavie en 1990, à la fin de la guerre en Bosnie en 1995. La recherche reconstruit et analyse dans un premier temps quelques-uns des principaux débats et réflexions développés dans le monde scientifique et intellectuel yougoslave et (post)yougoslave depuis la période socialiste, sur la base de publications périodiques, de livres et de travaux inédits. L’étude se concentre notamment sur la période de la dissolution du pays et elle examine en détail les réflexions des sciences sociales autour des grandes problématiques des années 1990, telles que la guerre, la montée du nationalisme, la transition politique et économique et enfin, les nouvelles manières de penser la modernisation à l’époque de la globalisation. Dans un second temps, à partir d’entretiens en profondeur menés avec des chercheurs et à partir de documents institutionnels, matériaux statistiques et documents de presse, la recherche décrit et analyse le monde des sciences sociales dans la République Fédérale Socialiste de Yougoslavie, ainsi que ses reconfigurations pendant la crise et la dissolution du pays. La thèse s’intéresse surtout aux transformations des conditions de production des chercheurs dans la première moitié des années 1990, une période caractérisée par l’effondrement du système socialiste, le début de la guerre dans la région, la rupture des liens de coopération panyougoslaves, la crise économique, la montée de l’autoritarisme et le recul général de l’espace (post)yougoslave dans le système mondial
Drawing from different traditions of intellectual history, as well as from the sociology of intellectuals, the dissertation proposes a critical examination of the univers of social sciences in Serbia and Croatia, their production and reconfiguration, during the breakup of Yugoslavia. The work focuses on the period that goes from the dissolution of the League of Communists of Yugoslavia in 1990 to the end of the war in Bosnia in 1995. On the one hand, the research reconstructs and analyses some of the main debates and reflections that took place in the Yugoslav and (post)Yugoslav scientific and intellectual world from the socialist period onwards, drawing from scientific journals, books and unpublished works. The study focuses especially on the period of the country's disintegration, examining in detail the reflections in social sciences around some of the main issues of the 1990s such as war, nationalism, political and economic transition and new approaches to modernization characteristic of the era of globalisation. On the oher hand, ressorting to in-depth interviews conducted with researchers, as well as institutional documents, statistical materials and sources from the press, the research describes and analyzes the world of social sciences in the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and its reconfigurations during the crisis and dissolution of the country. The thesis particularly addresses the transformations that took place in the conditions of production for local researchers during the early 1990s, a period that was characterized by the collapse of the socialist system, the beginning of war in the region, the breakup of panyugoslav scientific and intellectual links, economic crisis, the rise of authoritarianism and the general regression of the (post)Yugoslav space in the global system

Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to examine British foreign policy-making towards the armed conflict that broke out in former Yugoslavia in June 1991, focusing on the role of the media as a domestic variable in the foreign policy-making process. After the end of the Cold War, British foreign policy-making was faced with a set of changing variables on the international level and attempted to adjust policy to them. This thesis, using the theoretical basis provided by Foreign Policy Analysis on the role of the media - in our case, representative samples of the British press and electronic media - as a domestic input in the foreign policy-making process, examines the various aspects of British policy towards the dissolution of former Yugoslavia as it attempted to reconcile the demands made by the international and domestic environment. Focusing on the issues of recognition of the breakaway republics of Slovenia and Croatia and armed intervention by the international community, which determined to a large extent the policy that would be followed by Britain and the EC/EU in the later stages of the Yugoslav conflict, this thesis argues that the influence of the media was not as great as has been often assumed, especially by policy-makers themselves. Looking at the conditions under which media influence can be maximised, it will be argued that these conditions were not present during the period under examination. Instead, British policy was formulated taking mainly into account stronger domestic and international concerns. However, the main traits that characterise media coverage of the first six months of the conflict, leading to the recognition of Slovenia and Croatia, are important on their own account, as they set the stage for the intensive coverage of the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, where conditions for media influence were maximised.

Abstract:
2012/2013
Between 1991 and 1995, close to three hundred thousand people were killed in the former Yugoslavia. The international responses to this catastrophe was at best uncertain and at worst appalling. While both the United States and the European Union initially viewed the Balkan wars as a European problem, the Europeans chose not to take a strong stand, restricting themselves to dispatching U.N. “peacekeepers” to a country where there was no peace keep, and withholding from them the means and the authority to stop the fighting. In Bosnia the Europe sought to avoid military involvement, citing every excuse she could think of not to intervene to prevent the genocide of 250.000 Bosnian Muslims, who ultimately died at the hands of their Serbian tormentors. The British and French, too, who had primarily responsibility for dealing with this European problem, had persuaded the United Nations to impose an arms embargo on both sides in the Bosnian war. As often happens, the embargo did little damage to Serbia’s military capacities, since their army had inherited the extensive military hardware Yugoslavia had amassed under its former Communist regime. But the embargo did deny the means of self-defense to the poorly equipped majority Muslim population in Bosnia. Unarmed, they could do little to repel the invaders or to protect their villages. Some European leaders were not eager to have a Muslim state in the heart of the Balkans, fearing it might become a base for exporting extremism, a result that their neglect made more, not less, likely. However, from the beginning of Yugoslavia’s collapse, Americans divided into two groups, broadly defined: those who thought that Americans should intervene for either moral or strategic reasons, and those who feared that if they did, they would become entangled in a Vietnam-like quagmire. As awareness of ethnic cleansing and genocide spread, the proportion of those who wanted the United States to “do something” increased, but they probably never constituted a majority. Nevertheless, when the situation seemed most hopeless in July 1995 - the United States put its prestige on the line with a rapid and dramatic series of high-risk actions: an all-out diplomatic effort in August, heavy NATO bombing in September, a cease-fire in October, Dayton in November, and, in December, the deployment of twenty thousand American troops to Bosnia. Finally, in late 1995, in the face of growing atrocities and new Bosnian Serb threats, the United States decided to take part in Bosnia, the war was over and the America’s role in post-Cold War Europe redefined. There is a lesson here to be learned by Europe that Bosnian Muslims are the best Christians in the world. The policy-makers cannot have a double heart, one for love and other for hate because some European leaders were not eager to have a Muslim state in the heart of Europe. They spoke of a painful but realistic restoration of Christian Europe. Of course Christianity, like any other religion has nothing to do with the barbarities and the greatest collective failure of Europe. The lesson that Western civilization thought it had drawn from the genocide of World War II – “Never again!”- must now be qualified to read: “except when politically inconvenient.”
La tragedia della ex-Jugoslavia e al suo interno quella della Bosnia Erzegovina riguardano pagine straordinariamente sconvolgenti della storia del mondo posto-Ottantanove, addirittura — si può dire — la conseguenza più grave, anche se non diretta, della dissoluzione dell'Unione Sovietica e conseguentemente di quel bipolarismo che aveva "ingessato" tutte le ipotesi o i tentativi di trasformazione degli esiti e delle conseguenze della seconda guerra mondiale. In un'impostazione sostanzialmente di storia politico-sociale, il candidato ricostruisce le vicende che vanno dal 1990 al 1995, ovvero da quella che il candidato chiama "la morte della Jugoslavia" fino all'intervento, decisivo in termini militari, della NATO nel conflitto, che aveva già visto negli anni precedenti emergere la guerra in Slovenia, in Croazia, prima di colpire anche la Bosnia Erzegovina, con la finale Conferenza che porta agli Accordi di Dayton. L'attore centrale di tutta questa vicenda è naturalmente la Serbia di Milosevic, ricordare il quale non fa che aiutarci a veder riapparire i fantasmi di vicende atroci di sterminio di civili, di stupro etnico, di "pulizia etnica", di genocidio. Il candidato fa opportunamente precedere la sua analisi da una cronologia, piuttosto lunga, che consente di scandire con precisione i diversi passaggi di una storia eccezionalmente drammatica. Segue il programma del suo lavoro, con l'indicazione del metodo di ricerca e degli strumenti di cui si è valso. Le cinque parti sostanziali in cui si suddivide il lavoro riguardano la dissoluzione della Jugoslavia, a partire dai falliti tentativi di Tito di salvaguardare l'integrità di quella Federazione, e analizzando attentamente i due "scivolamenti" della guerra in Slovenia dapprima e in Croazia poi. Il candidato analizza la società e la storia della Bosnia Erzegovina, condizione ovviamente preliminare per comprendere gli eventi successivi. Le tre categorie alle quali il candidato riconduce quella vicenda sono il multiculturalismo, la multietnicità e il multiconfessionalismo — tre dimensioni che potrebbero poter essere rispettate e addirittura apprezzate e che invece, in ogni parte del mondo, e più che altrove in Bosnia trovano ostacoli e resistenze violente e sanguinose. Risulta, come il candidato fa notare, adottare l'arma del nazionalismo e delle sue retoriche, impedendo così a ogni pur volenteroso tentativo di portare la democrazia nel proprio paese di trionfare. Il candidato chiarisce, in questo quadro, che la cosiddetta "balcanizzazione" che si fa discendere da quella parte del mondo, non deve essere intesa come un termine negativo ma come la pura e semplice conseguenza dei frequenti interventi esterni che là si sono realizzati. Il candidato dedica non poca attenzione al ruolo degli Stati Uniti nella vicenda, e alle diverse strategie — politiche e militari — adottate: con i devastanti risultati che tuttavia, purtroppo, conosciamo. L’Unione Europea non esce ovviamente meglio dell'alleato d'oltre Atlantico dalla ricostruzione del candidato, che poi giunge anche a ripercorrere le vicende di alcuni importanti uomini politici locali, sopra tutti Izebegovic e Karadzic, l'un contro l'altro schierati. Né sono passate sotto silenzio le vicende di alcune delle pagine più drammatiche: il massacro di Srebrenica, i bombardamenti su Sarajevo e in particolare il secondo bombardamento sul mercato. La risoluzione della crisi giunse, come per incanto, quando la NATO accolse l'invito ONU di intervenire: l'intervento fece tacere le armi, portò agli accordi di Dayton, ma non alla riconciliazione, che dal 1995 ha comunque incominciato il suo lento, ma — sperabilmente — solido cammino.

Abstract:
Since the end of the Cold War, political and geographical realities have changed considerably. One such reality was the balance of power between East and West, which was especially visible in Europe. The contest between rivals, the Warsaw Pact and the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO), was over. Ultimately, NATO found itself the pre-eminent security organisation in Europe. The new post-cold war environment forced questions about the appropriate role for NATO. However, that changed with both the process of NATO expansion into former Warsaw pact countries and the ethnic conflicts throughout the former Yugoslavia. NATO found a new purpose during the violent dissolution of Yugoslavia as ‘peace-enforcer’ in the Balkan region. The focus of this thesis is NATO’s role in peace-enforcement in the former Yugoslavia. It examines how NATO dealt with the end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Warsaw Pact. Specifically, how NATO managed to re-establish its relevance as a security organisation. NATO’s military intervention in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Kosovo were crucial in securing the end of hostilities in both those regions. NATO’s Implementation Force (IFOR), Stabilisation Force (SFOR) and Kosovo Force (KFOR) all played significant roles in subsequent peace-enforcement and peace-building roles in the region by suppressing violence through power projection and institution building. In 2001, NATO undertook a third operation in the Balkans, that time of a more limited nature, disarming ethnic Albanians in the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. NATO’s presence there also encouraged stability. This thesis argues that, ultimately, NATO maintained its relevance by the establishing a new role for itself after the Cold War through Eastward expansion and in suppressing ethnic conflict in the Balkans. Both these roles have been successful. The decisive interventions in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo and FYROM forced the belligerents to stop fighting. NATO’s subsequent enforcement of the peace has stopped each conflict from flaring up again. With NATO membership now including most of Europe, it remains the only viable security organisation on the continent. NATO’s effectiveness as a security organisation was demonstrated with its ability to end the conflict in the Balkans and providing a stable environment for the people of the region. This intervention was crucial to the definition of a new role for NATO in the post-Cold War world.

Abstract:
Golden parachutes represent one of the preventive defence antitakeover measures based on which contracts are concluded with the engagement of team of managers of the target company, promising them the payment of profitable compensation in case of occurrence of transactions related to takeover of control (purchase of a certain percentage of shares or direct offer to shareholders for a certain percentage of company shares). Contract rights called the golden parachutes are activated by the creation of one or more alternative events, or "triggers." (Un)intentional incorrect application of the golden parachutes may have not only significant negative consequences on the future performance of companies, but it can also deter potential investors from the decision to invest their capital in companies that have entered into such agreements with the engaged team of managers. Numerous cases of incorrect application of the golden parachutes can be found in the former socialist countries, as well as in the countries that emerged from the dissolution of Yugoslavia.

Abstract:
There is a bridge in the city I knew in my childhood, a bridge so breathtaking, one would not believe that within its many layers of smooth tenelia stone, there lie millions of eggshells tectonically binding what was once known as the widest arch in the world of that era. Having lived through the dissolution of the seven states that comprised the melting pot of former Yugoslavia and the 1992–1995 brutal genocide of Bosniaks in Mostar, a city of ancient bridge-keepers known as “Mostari,” I’ve directly witnessed the effects of man-made disasters as a strategic form of cultural erasure. This paper aims to critically explore my search towards ‘universality’ in the language of architecture vis-à-vis a sequence of elemental typologies as the new design objective that could challenge and begin to heal variant sites that have endured political, economic and cultural injustices across the world.
