Historical Dictionary of Montenegro covers a period of some fifteen centuries during which the name of the country changed from Doclea, through Zeta to Montenegro, and its political status evolved from a loose community of tribes to a principality, a kingdom, a district, a banate, and a constitutive republic, from disappearing from the political map of the world in the first half of the twentieth century to a state with full independence at the start of the twenty-first century.This book features a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has more than 800 cross-referenced entries on important personalities as well as aspects of the country's politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Montenegro.

This is the first book to offer a comprehensive analysis of the emergence, nature, and function of Serbian paramilitary units during the violent breakup of Yugoslavia.The book investigates the nature and functions of paramilitary units throughout the 1990s, and their ties to the state and President Slobodan Milöevi¿. The work relies on the archives of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia in The Hague, which conducted dozens of trials relating to paramilitary violence, and records from judicial proceedings in the region. It discusses how and why certain important paramilitary units emerged, how they functioned and transformed through the decade, what their relationships and entanglements were with the state, the Milöevi¿ regime, and organized crime. The study thus investigates the interrelated ideological, political, and social factors and processes, fueling paramilitary engagement, and assesses the impact of this engagement on victims of paramilitary violence and on the state and society for which the units purportedly fought. It argues that coordinated action by a number of state institutions gave rise to paramilitaries tasked with altering borders while maintaining plausible deniability for the sponsoring regime. The outsourcing of violence by the state to paramilitaries led to a significant weakening of the very state these units and their sponsors swore to protect. The book also analyzes differences between the units and how they attacked civilians, arguing that the different forms of violence stemmed not only from the function they fulfilled for the state but also the ways in which they were set up and operated. The final chapter brings the different strands of the argument together into a coherent whole, suggesting avenues for further research, in the former Yugoslavia and beyond.This book will be of much interest to students of ethnic conflict and civil war, war crimes, Balkan politics, and International Relations in general.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2004 im Fachbereich Politik - Thema: Völkerrecht und Menschenrechte, Note: 1,3, Universität Augsburg, Veranstaltung: Einführung in die Internationale Politik, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Im Zuge der Kamphandlungen in Slowenien, Kroatien und vor allem in Bosnien-Herzegowina kam es auf allen, aber vor allem auf Seiten der bosnisch-serbischen Milizen zu Kriegsverbrechen und Gräueltaten, wie man es im Europa des späten zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts nicht mehr erwartet hatte. Die Vereinten Nationen entschieden sich nach dem Beispiel von Nürnberg ein Tribunal einzuberufen, das diese Verbrechen ahnden und somit zum Friedensprozess beitragen sollte. Diese Hausarbeit beschäftigt sich mit den Hintergründen der Einrichtung dieses Tribunals, dessen Aufgaben, der Arbeit des Gerichts und dessen Mithilfe an der Friedenssicherung. Außerdem will ich die Anwendung internationalen Strafrechts am Beispiel des Jugoslawien Tribunals mit den Visionen des Kantschen Idealismus vergleichen und so die Theorie mit der heutigen Praxis in Verbindung bringen.

Die prekäre Situation in den Nachfolgestaaten Jugoslawiens erzeugte eine spezifische Dynamik im Feld der Arbeitsmobilität. Wenig erforscht ist für diese Region, wie ältere Care-Arbeiterinnen aus zum Beispiel Serbien oder Bosnien in deutsche Haushalte pendeln, um dort die Alten zu pflegen - meist illegalisiert, abhängig von Vermittlungsagenturen und privaten Arbeitgebern. Dieses genderspezifische Migrationsmuster verfolgt Tanja ViSic in einer vielfach verorteten Ethnografie mit Blick auf die Fragen: Wie sind die Mobilitäts- und Arbeitspraktiken der Frauen eingebunden in die sozioökonomischen Konstellationen des informellen Care-Arbeitssektors; wie sind sie in Auseinandersetzung mit den Arbeitsgesetzen und den Grenzregimes entstanden? Deutlich werden in dichten Fallstudien kulturspezifische Wahrnehmungsmuster von Care-Arbeit, Familienbeziehungen und dem Mobilwerden.

Palgrave Studies in Global Citizenship Education and DemocracySeries Editor: Jason Laker, San José State University, USAThis book examines the history of Bosnia and post-conflict Bosnian education in the setting of a society very much still politically divided. Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) serves as the perfect case study for examining how education evolves within the context of massive state-building efforts and mass educational reform. Focusing on issues central to successful education in a democracy, Lanahan highlights the importance of the governance structures of the Dayton Peace Accords, the split nature of education in BiH, the international community's involvement in education, teacher education, and higher education reform.Drawing on a wealth of research by national and international experts, this book provides an engaging and timely study of global governance, regional integration, and oversight by the international community over a 20-year period for policymakers to consider as they continue to create policy for other emerging democracies. Both academics and practitioners in the field of international education and development will find this an invaluable text.Brian Lanahan is Associate Professor of Citizenship Education at the College of Charleston, USA. He was previously a Fulbright Scholar in Sarajevo and a Woodrow Wilson International Center Research Scholar. His research interests include comparative education and education in post-conflict countries.
