Synopsis
"Only unity saves the Serbs" is the famous call for unity in the Serb nationalist doctrine. But even though this doctrine was ideologically adhered to by most of the Serb leaders in Croatia and Bosnia, disunity characterized Serb politics during the Yugoslav disintegration and war. Nationalism was contested and nationalist claims to homogeneity did not reflect the reality of Serb politics. This book provides a comprehensive analysis of Serb politics and challenges widespread assumptions regarding the Yugoslav conflict and war. It finds that although Slobodan Milosevic played a highly significant role, he was not always able to control the local Serb leaders. Moreover, it adds to the emerging evidence of the lack of importance of popular attitudes; hardline dominance was generally based on the control of economic and coercive resources rather than on elites successfully "playing the ethnic card." It moves beyond an assumption of automatic ethnic outbidding and thus contributes toward a better understanding of intra-ethnic rivalry in other cases such as Israel/Palestine, Northern Ireland, Nagorno-Karabakh and Rwanda.

Studies in Ethnopolitics - 6: Contested Nationalism: Serb Elite Rivalry in Croatia and Bosnia in the 1990s
Seller: Bookbot, Prague, Czech Republic
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen; Leichte Verschmutzung / Farbtonveränderung. The book delves into the complexities of Serb politics during the Yugoslav disintegration, highlighting the disunity that contradicted the nationalist call for unity. It critically examines the roles of leaders like Slobodan Milosevic, revealing that local leaders often operated independently. The analysis challenges the notion that popular attitudes drove hardline nationalism, suggesting instead that control over economic and coercive resources was more influential. This work enhances understanding of intra-ethnic rivalries, drawing parallels with conflicts in Israel/Palestine, Northern Ireland, and Rwanda. Seller Inventory # cedeb0fc-4f0f-4b63-b23c-8499c9b2b23e
