Więcej o książce
The violent disintegration of the former Yugoslavia & its aftermath, highlight the importance of a detailed understanding of the Balkan region. The political outlook & behavior of the Serbs & Serbian elites has been particularly bewildering to Western citizens & decision-makers. Serpent in the Bosom provides an analysis of Serbian politics from 1987 to 2000 that centers on an examination of Slobodan Milosevic's rise to power, his pattern of rule, the war in Kosovo & the recent democratic 'revolution' in Serbia. Lenard Cohen examines Milosevic's shrewd admixture of Serbian nationalism & socialism & his utilization of the media, & other agencies, as part of his 'technology of rule'. He also explores Milosevic's complex relationship with Serbia's intelligentsia, the Serbian Orthodox church, the police & the army, as well as Serbian-Albanian relations, & the Belgrade regime's ongoing controversy with Montenegro's political leadership. What emerges is a clear understanding of Serbia's enigmatic leader, his influence on the Balkans & the process of political transition in Yugoslavia.
