Case study 1

The purpose of this paper is to analyse how the political leadership of the (Socialist) Republic of Serbia (henceforth the Serbian leadership) achieved control over the Yugoslav People’s Army (JNA) in the period between the late 1980s and early 1992.

In Pursuit of Unity: The West and the Breakup of Yugoslavia

 

 

 

 

Case study 2

Yugoslavia broke up twenty years ago, but the story of its disintegration and of the international community’s response to the carnage which followed it remains relevant today. Most obviously, the people of Yugoslavia’s successor states still have to live with the consequences of that breakup.

a Better Understanding of the

Case study 3

International criminal trials do allow individuals to be held accountable for what may have been state violence committed through institutional state structures and state bureaucracies; but a focus on individual criminal responsibility in the investigation into and prosecution of alleged mass atrocities has a number of potential pitfalls.

During the war in the nineties in the former Yugoslavia (SFRJ), there were at least eight prison camps on the territory of the Republic of Serbia. During the period between October 1991 and mid-August 1992, there were six camps for Croats which were formed by the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA) and the Military Security.

The Kosovo Myth

 

 

 

 

Case study 6

The historians who studied the historical sources on the Battle of Kosovo, from Ilarion Ruvarac and Ljubomir Kovačević, the founder of critical historiography in Serbia, to Sima Ćirković, who studied the relevant sources during the last decades of the 20th century, concluded that there existed few reliable sources on it.

A closed society and its allies:
The use of ideology in Serbia’s
culture, 1986-2016

 

 

 

 

Case study 7

Popper’s observations about common tendencies of the policies of contemporary totalitarianisms as illustrative of a closed society are almost completely applicable to the culture in Serbia from mid-1980s till the late 1990s: and that is to prevent any outside influence that could jeopardize the rigidity of collective taboos, anti-humanism standing against all egalitarian, democratic and individualistic initiatives, anti-universalism and particularism in the service of the partition between “us” and “others” that dams introduction of universalistic tendencies.
