“This volume stands as a unique collection of provocative ‘self’ (of the Serbs) examinations. One can only hope that Popov’s invitation to the intellectuals from other involved ethnic groups is met with similar enthusiasm. … It is imperative that Western scholars, policymakers and Balkan wathchers have access to works such as this one, lest they become too reliant on the abundant but often incomplete and presumtuous publications by journalists and Western power brokers.”

“As the Balkan wars, cold wars and what the American media have consistently referred to as ‘crises’ are approaching their tenth anniversary, a solid body of literature that attempts to explain the origins of the breakup of Yugoslavia has emerged. … The Road to War in Serbia is an indispensable resource for anyone who hopes to look beyond the oft-proferred monocausal explanations of the catastrophes in the Balkans. The diversity of texts, of the authors’ backgrounds and of their assumptions leaves a sense of open-endedness, which is the greatest value of this book. After studying it the intelligent reader will be one step closer to a serious, scholarly investigation into the origins of the conflict among the former Yugoslav republics, regimes and people.”
