Book Overview: Building on the newly discovered archival material, these two multidisciplinary volumes offer a critical reevaluation of scholarship on Yugoslavia and its aftermath. Authors offer a perspective free of both the orientalist and occidentalist interpretative baggage, trying instead to offer a substantive historical, political and sociological contribution to our understanding of a failed dream of a multinational South Slavic state. (Tomislav Longinovic Professor of Slavic Languages and Literature, University of Wisconsin Madison, USA)
