This collection presents a wealth of materials appearing in book form for the very first time, offering reflections published twenty-five years after the official collapse of communist Yugoslavia and the outbreak of the Bosnian War. The work is framed by a wide-ranging preface from Andrej Grubačić, which affirms the ongoing relevance of Yugoslav history and identity, contextualizing the nation's historical experiment in self-management, antifascism, and multiethnic coexistence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 style=\"color: #8B0000; font-size: 1.25em; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003eReader Targeting\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 20px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 5px;\"\u003eStudents and scholars of political science, international relations, and Eastern European history.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 5px;\"\u003eReaders seeking critical analyses of Western foreign policy, international law, and media studies.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 5px;\"\u003eThose interested in Noam Chomsky's extensive body of political and historical activism regarding the Balkans.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 style=\"color: #8B0000; font-size: 1.25em; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003eAuthor \u0026amp; Contributor Biographies\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNoam Chomsky\u003c\/strong\u003e is one of the world's most cited living scholars.
