Analyses the crisis faced by the Balkan states at the end of the Cold War, the turbulent events that followed and Western policy towards the region.

Examining Balkan politics, from the emergence of nationalism to the retreat of Communist power in 1989, this book systematically argues that many of the region's problems are external in origin. It also examines the origins of Western prejudices towards the Balkans, tracing the damaging effects of policies based on Western lethargy and cynicism.
