Historical Background on the Bosnian
Conflict
1.
An Overview of the Conflict in
the Balkans
13
Worldmark Encyclopedia of the Nations
Yugoslavia broke apart in the
1980s,
forming
five republics, including Bosnia. Ethnic, reli¬
gious, and nationalistic tensions arose in the
region. Forces backed by Serbia and Croatia
launched attacks on Bosnia in the early
1990s.
2.
Centuries of Strife Set the Stage for
the Bosnian Conflict
21
Michael Cusack
The Balkans has a centuries-old history of
ethnic and religious violence. Fighting among
Muslims and Christians began when Muslim
Turks conquered the area in
1453
and contin¬
ues in modern times.
3.
Humanitarian Aid Is Not Enough in
a Time of Mass Killings
27
Margaret Thatcher
et al.
Western countries need to do more than send
aid, writes a group of prominent people from
across the globe to US president Bill Clinton
and other heads of state. They say that the
West must act immediately to stop the massa¬
cre of Bosnians.
4.
The United States Aims to Facilitate
Peace in the Balkans
34
Bill Clinton
Saying that stability in central Europe is vital
to US interests, President Bill Clinton declares
that the American ideals of liberty, democ¬
racy, and peace can and should be applied in
Bosnia. As a result, he says he has commit¬
ted US troops to join others from NATO as
peacekeepers in the Balkans.
5.
A Leader of Violence in the Balkans
Dies Before Being Convicted
46
Marcus Tanner
The career of Serbian leader Slobodan
Milosevic tells much of the story of the con¬
flict in and around Bosnia. Finally brought
to trial before a UN war crimes tribunal,
Milosevic died before the trial concluded,
remaining unrepentant all the way to his
grave.
6.
Fifteen Years Later, Serbia Condemns
a Mass Slaughter
52
Ron Synovitz
Fifteen years after Serbian forces killed about
eight thousand Bosnian Muslims in the single
worst loss of life in the war, the Serbian parlia¬
ment condemns the killings, expresses sympa¬
thy for victims, and apologizes for not doing
enough to prevent the massacre.

Controversies Surrounding the
Bosnian Conflict
1.
Ethnic Conflict Was Not the Central
Cause of the Strife in Bosnia
60
Susan L. Woodward
The belief that the conflict was rooted in eth¬
nic hatred allowed it to last longer. The war s
real origin was the erosion of government
authority and economic pressures.
2.
Religion Was the Main Issue Behind
the Attacks in Bosnia
71
Michael A. Sells
The central goal of the Serbian attacks was
to wipe out five hundred years of peaceful
Christian and Muslim coexistence. Ethnic
cleansing was, in fact, religious-based geno¬
cide carried out by Serbs and their Croatian
allies.
3.
The United States and Western Europe
Mishandled the Outbreaks of Violence
in Bosnia
79
Lester H.
Brune
The seeds of war were sown during the
administration of US president Ronald
Reagan and grew as the administration of
George H.W. Bush continued to maintain
that problems in Yugoslavia should be
addressed solely by Europeans.
4.
Different US Strategies Could Have
Limited the Damage
93
Wayne Bert
The United States could have committed
troops earlier and prevented years of conflict
or could have given Bosnians resources to
defend themselves. Instead, the West chose a
middle course, with devastating results.
5.
Systematic Rape Was a Serbian
War Tactic
103
M. Cherif Bassiouni and
Marcia McCormick
Rape and sexual violence were used to some
degree as a war tactic by all sides in the con¬
flict. But most of the victims were Bosnian
Muslims and most of the perpetrators were
Bosnian Christian Serbs.
6.
A UN Declaration Failed to Save
Thousands of Lives in Srebrenica
115
Ivan Lupis
A town in Bosnia that had been designated by
the United Nations as a safe haven for Bosnian
muslims
instead became the site of the largest
massacre in Europe since World War II.
7.
The NATO Bombing Campaign Helped
Bring Peace to the Balkans
126
Ryan C.
Hendrickson
The NATO bombing campaign in Bosnia,
though extremely controversial at the time,
was a crucial step toward ending the war. It
also began a wider role for the Western mili¬
tary alliance in European peacekeeping.
8.
The NATO Bombing Hurt the Cause
of the Bosnian People
136
The Militant
While claiming their aims were humanitarian,
the United States and its allies were vying
for imperialistic influence in the former
Yugoslavia. The bombing complicates mat¬
ters for the working people of Bosnia in their
struggle against the Serbian regime.
9.
International Criminal Tribunals Are
Tools for Peace
141
Richard J.
Goldstone
There would be much more violence in the
world, including in the former Yugoslavia,
without international criminal tribunals.
They bring truth to light and protect innocent
people from powerfully destructive forces.
10.
The United States Strategy Was
Correct for Bosnia, and for the Future
151
Richard Holbrooke
Bringing an end to the Bosnian war was an
essential act for the interests of the United
States. Peace was accomplished using both
realism and idealism
—
a combination neces¬
sary for lasting success.

Personal Narratives
1.
Each Day Became Worse for a Girl
in Sarajevo
161
Zlata Filipović
In the spring of
1992,
in Sarajevo, Bosnia, war
shatters the life of a local thirteen-year-old
girl from a middle-class family. The war rages
through her street, her family, and her future.
Each terrifying day she writes down the
details of her hopes and fears.
2.
Moral Bravery Persists Amid the
Desperation for Survival
169
Zlatko Dizdarevic
In Sarajevo, a city that not long before had
hosted the Winter Olympics but was then torn
by the horrors of open war, many people still
strive to live with honor. And they do so in
the face of abandonment by the international
community.
3.
The Contradictions of Bosnia Lead
Toward Fear and Insanity
182
David Rieff
An American writer finds himself drawn
deeply into the Bosnia war while the rest of
the Western world distances itself from it. He
sees
—
and is haunted by
—
the brutally fatal
consequences of global hypocrisy.
4.
A War Reporter Struggles to Remember
and to Forget the Siege of Sarajevo
194
Janine
di
Giovanni
A war reporter finds Bosnia unlike any con¬
flict about which she has reported before and
a city where madness is the norm. She returns
to Sarajevo years later and is struck by what
has changed and what has not.
