War in the Balkans, 1991-2002

This book, by Dr. R. Craig Nation, was written to address the need for a comprehensive history of the Balkan wars provoked by the collapse of the Yugoslav Federation in 1991. These wars, and the instability that they have provoked, became preoccupations for international security management through the 1990s. After an initial phase of distancing and hesitation, Balkan conflict drew the United States and its most important European allies into an open-ended commitment to peace enforcement, conflict management, and peace-building in the region, importantly supported by the U.S. Army.Army War Coll Strategic Studies Inst Carlisle Barracks PA is the author of 'War in the Balkans, 1991-2002', published 2003 under ISBN 9781423500087 and ISBN 1423500083.
