24. 11. Yugoslavia : 1989-1996
    Written by Warren Zimmerman, a former US Ambassador to Yugoslavia, from the Rand corporation. Offers look back on the events of the war and lessons for U.S. foreign policy.  
    http://www.rand.org/pubs/conf_proceedings/CF129/CF-129.chapter11.html
    
    Extractions: by Warren Zimmermann U.S. policy toward Yugoslavia was remarkably consistent during the Cold War. The United States and the United Kingdom had backed Josip Broz Tito during the closing years of World War Two in spite of his Communist affiliation and his never-disguised intention of turning Yugoslavia into a Communist country. Tito's Yugoslav opposition, Draza Mihailovic, a Serbian general in the pre-war royalist regime, had decided that it was more important to oppose Tito's Communist Partisans than to engage fully against the Germans. For the Allies, therefore, support for Tito was a pragmatic response to the need to tie down some 20 German divisions in the Balkans while the invasion of France was being prepared. The same pragmatism guided U.S. policy when Tito was expelled from the Cominform by Stalin in 1948. The Truman administration decided to support the renegade Yugoslav Communist as a way to challenge Stalin, to deprive the Soviets of a sphere of influence on the Adriatic, and to ensure the survival of a possible magnet for further defections from the Soviet bloc. U.S. assistance to Tito included the provision of aircraft and other military equipment, plus a continuing economic aid program that won Yugoslavia a unique and favored position among all Communist countries. The United States, of course, never bought into Tito's heterodox ideology, although his rejection of such Soviet shibboleths as democratic centralism and a monopolistic role for the Communist Party made it easier for successive American administrations to maintain support. Moreover, Yugoslavia's economic system was based on a (theoretically) decentralized "self-management" rather than on a Gosplan and a five-year planning cycle. Some economic decisions were in fact made at the factory level, though the Yugoslav party exercised considerable behind-the-scenes control. From the 1950s Yugoslavia's borders were open to a remarkable degree for a Communist country; Tito, whose opportunism usually got the better of his Bolshevism, had seen the value of allowing Yugoslav workers to earn hard currency in the West. This openness impressed even Nikita Khrushchev, who remarked on it in his memoirs.

    Extractions: September 17, 2001 The conference, Sept. 24-26, near Novi Sad, Serbia, is drawing leading authorities from the United States, Canada, western Europe and Serbia and key representatives of the newly democratic governments of Serbia and Yugoslavia. The Scholars' Dialogue is sponsored by the provincial government of Vojvodina, the university and municipality of Novi Sad, and several regional and non-governmental and human rights organizations. "Amid all the bitter debates about the wars of Yugoslav succession, there has been one element of agreement by all sides, namely the pivotal role that history has played in shaping people's minds," says Purdue Professor Charles Ingrao, who is helping organize the Scholars' Dialogue. "This has been particularly true among the Serbs. Divergent interpretations of history have divided nations by sowing mistrust, resentment and hatred among people who had coexisted with one another for long periods of time. In the hands of nationalist politicians, media and historians, the events of the past decade can also easily be molded in ways that will intensify these feelings, further widening the gap among Serbs and their neighbors. "The historians hope to bring together Serb and non-Serb scholars to examine dispassionately the key documentary evidence that informs public perceptions about the underlying causes and tragic course of the Yugoslav conflicts. By employing shared scholarly methodologies, the historians' dialogue could hopefully reach a reasoned consensus on at least some of these contentious issues. Achieving at least some common ground would help replace yet another round of distortion and outright myth-making with mutual understanding that could help heal the wounds and bridge the divisions of the past decade."

This war was also unusual in its participants' targeting of civilians and the single fact that there were more civilian than military casualties. The brutality of this conflict is also evident in the bombing of such normally sacred (even in wartime) institutions as public markets, civilian heating sources, factories, buses, trains and hospitals. The war resulted in hundreds of thousands of deaths, mostly of civilians, and created millions of refugees and displaced persons. Although the leaders who fashioned the rhetoric that spurred the violence have been removed from power and the war has ended, the region remains unstable.

Constitution - History - Program reach Partners Impact History Since the signing of the Dayton Peace Accords which ended the war in 1995, a process of social, economic and political recovery has been taking place in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH). This process, mainly led by the international community, has channeled financial and technical assistance into the main areas of the physical and, to a lesser extent, psychosocial and educational reconstruction of the country and its peoples. In spite of these efforts, many challenges remain in Bosnia and Herzegovina and, indeed, in the entire Balkan region. The underlying prejudice and tension between groups remain widespread and continues to erupt in acts of violence against each other, threatening to destabilize the region. In Bosnia itself, extreme nationalism has not yet been excised from the body politics. Broadly speaking, a culture of peace has not yet been established. In this context, in September 2000, Dr. H.B.
