The essays focus on the post-Yugoslav cultural transition and try to answer questions about what has been gained and what has been lost since the dissolution of the common country. Most of the contributions can be seen as current attempts to make sense of the past and help cultures in transition, as well as to report on them. The volume is a mixture of personal essays and scholarly articles and that combination of genres makes the book both moving and informative. Its importance is unique. While many studies dwell on the causes of the demise of Yugoslavia, this collection touches upon these causes but goes beyond them to identify Yugoslavia's legacy in a comprehensive way. It brings topics and writers, usually treated separately, into fruitful dialog with one another.Stanford studies on Central and Eastern Europe.HistoryYugoslaviaFormer Yugoslav republicsSocial life and customsYugoslaviaSocial life and customsHistory949.703Gorup Radmila Jovanovic858004MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910792029103321After Yugoslavia3845032UNINA
