The Dismantling of Yugoslavia

This is a clear, succinct, insightful analysis of a critically important
crisis, one that opened the Pandora's Box of "humanitarian
intervention" as the preferred rationale for imperialist action in
the current era. It will change your understanding of a chapter of
history that has been grossly distorted by the dominant media. A must
read.

(and a Western Liberal-Left Intellectual and Moral Collapse)

Consent (Pantheon, 2002). David Peterson is an independent journalist
