false 1172655 1 Yugoslavia: A Concise History surveys the whole turbulent course of the country's history, in the context of the struggles between great powers for control of the Balkans. Torn apart by nationalist rivalries, the first Yugoslavia lapsed into paralysis and dictatorship. Axis occupation in 1941 unleashed a murderous civil war, in which the Communist Party emerged victorious. Tito's Yugoslavia appeared to the world as a peaceful, multi-national federation, but in the end disintegrated amid barbarism unknown in Europe for half a century. This revised and fully updated edition explains why, and takes the events up to the arrest of Milosevic in 2001and beyond. 1160417 7 2 2004 Yugoslavia: A Concise History: Revised and Updated Edition total:1|5:1| 1 5 3 0 1172655 1403915660 9781403915665 1 0 5.00 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1172655.Yugoslavia_A_Concise_History_Revised_and_Updated_Edition 0 0 false Tue Aug 12 18:08:30 -0700 2008 Tue Aug 12 18:08:30 -0700 2008 1172655 1403915660 9781403915665 1 0 5.00 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1172655.Yugoslavia_A_Concise_History_Revised_and_Updated_Edition 5 0 false Sat Jun 21 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Fri Jul 11 00:38:34 -0700 2008 Fri Jul 11 00:39:32 -0700 2008 1172655 1403915660 9781403915665 1 0 5.00 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1172655.Yugoslavia_A_Concise_History_Revised_and_Updated_Edition 0 0 false Tue Feb 26 12:29:47 -0800 2008 Tue Feb 26 12:29:47 -0800 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=1172655
