ECMI Library
The ECMI Library is an independent collection of books, journals, and grey literature of more than 3,000 items covering many aspects of minority issues. The highly specialized collection offers public access to a variety of materials in more than twenty languages on interethnic relations, language and cultural diversity issues and ethnic conflict in Europe.
The Library includes a useful reference section and a considerable number of published and unpublished reports, and is especially strong in the area of minority protection with regards to international law. The ECMI Library is also unique in that it includes an ever-growing number of annual reports of Ombudsman offices around the world, which provide insight into the human rights situation in many countries. Current periodical and newspaper subscriptions reflect the multidisciplinary nature of ECMI research, and reference services are provided both in-house and for the general public.

| Description | Now that united Yugoslavia has been officially consigned to history, it is now time for historians and others to revisit it. The main aim of this book is to explore the history of 'the Yugoslav idea', or 'Yugoslavism', between the creation of the state at the end of the First World War in 1918 and its dissolution in the early 1990s. The key theme that emerges is that Yugoslavism was a fluid concept, which the different Yugoslav nations, leaders and social groups understood in different ways at different times. There was no single definition of who or what was 'Yugoslav' - a fact which perhaps indirectly contributed to the ultimate failure of the Yugoslav idea, and with it, the Yugoslav state. This book offers a unique perspective on Yugoslavia's political, social, diplomatic and economic history and contributes to a better understanding of the wars which followed the country's dissolution. |
