Episode 41 - Family Feuds

<p>Say what you will about all the dysfunction across Europe in the 1920s, at least all the nations I've been covering have survived after some... uh, adjustments. Yugoslavia though? Not so much. Yugoslavia's story in this episode might be the most familiar, simply because the same issues of sectarianism sprung up again within living memory. And now you'll get some context for that as today I'll be covering the beginnings of those conflicts and the troubled birth of the country in general.  </p> <p> </p> <p>Bibliography for this episode: </p> <ol><li>Berend, Ivan Decades of Crisis: Central and Eastern Europe Before World War II University of California Press 1998</li> <li>Lampe, John Yugoslavia as History: Twice There was a Country Cambridge University Press 2000</li> <li>Glenny, Misha The Balkans: Nationalism, War, and the Great Powers 1804-1999 Penguin Books Ltd 1999</li> </ol><p> </p> <p>Questions?
