商品簡介
Weller traces events from 1987 to the intervention by United Nations troops in 1999, characterizing Kosovo as a prime example of a failure to a prevent conflict that everyone knew for a decade was about to happen. He sets out the background, describes the phases of crisis and conflict, and discusses general conclusions relating to the conflict and lessons learning for peace-keeping efforts. A detailed chronology is provided, but no index. In a second volume, he will continue the story through negotiations and Kosovo's declaration of independence.
