Human Rights Developments
By far the most serious violations occurred in the southwestern province of Kosovo, inhabited predominantly by ethnic Albanians who seek independence. After years of peaceful resistance to Yugoslav government repression, some ethnic Albanians formed an armed resistance against the state, known as the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA), or Ushtria Clirimtare e Kosoves (UCK) in Albanian. By early 1998, the KLA had taken credit for a series of attacks on policemen and ethnic Albanians it considered collaborators with the government. The first government atrocities took place in late February and early March when special police forces attacked three villages in the Drenica region, known for its KLA presence, with artillery, helicopters, and armored vehicles. At least eighty-eight peoplewere killed, twenty-four of them women and children. Although it is unclear to what extent the KLA was offering resistance, the evidence strongly suggests that at least seventeen people were executed after they had been detained or surrendered. The government began a large-scale offensive against the KLA in mid-May, a few days after Milosevic agreed to U.S. demands that he meet with Rugova. The special police together with the Yugoslav Army attacked a string of towns and villages along the border with Albania in the west, with the specific intent of depopulating the region. Until then, the KLA had been receiving arms and fresh recruits from across the border.

Yugoslavia
Government Revenue and Spending
Most federal revenue was collected in the form of turnover taxes and assessments by local and federal self-management communities of interest, which had financial management responsibility for social services such as education, health, and pensions. Because a large portion of the national budget was committed to social services, levies by the communities of interest were an important part of the tax structure. The republics and provinces and the communes also levied taxes; their main revenue sources were the same as those of the federal government, but they also taxed income and personal property. The last two categories provided little income, because the minimum income level on which income tax was collected was very high. Personal property taxes were collected mostly on private homes (see Housing , ch. 2). Peasants and private businesses were taxed on assessed incomes, often at very high rates that discouraged individual economic initiative. Constitutional reform aimed at restructuring the tax system to eliminate such restrictions. In 1987 the government purchased 41 percent of Yugoslavia's social product (see Glossary) through large expenditures on defense, government administration, and social services (see table 11, Appendix). Social services received an unusually large allotment for a country of Yugoslavia's modest resources. Defense took about 46 percent of federal outlays budgeted for 1990, because of Yugoslavia's policy of maintaining security and integrity as a nonaligned state (see

Yugoslavia
Government Organization for Defense
A major issue in the government's organization for defense concerned the position of supreme commander of the armed forces. From 1941 until his death in 1980, Tito was supreme commander. He achieved legendary stature as a military leader because of his role in directing the wartime Partisans. After Tito's death, no political leader carried the same respect and authority with military commanders. Since 1980, the powers of the supreme commander have been dispersed within the State Presidency. Article 283 of the Constitution gave the Federal Assembly ( Skupstina ) power to declare war and peace and to ratify military agreements and treaties. However, the State Presidency had direct command of the armed forces. The Presidency was authorized to make general plans and preparations for defense, to declare that an imminent danger of war exists, to order mobilization, and to declare war in the event that the Federal Assembly could not meet. The Presidency appointed, promoted, and relieved general officers. Despite these formal powers, however, in 1990 the State Presidency was not deemed likely to exercise immediate control over the armed forces. Because of its lack of military experience and expertise, the Presidency likely would approve responses to crises and decisions on strategic issues that were proposed at lower levels. Because of its collective nature and annual rotation, the State Presidency could not replicate Tito's role as an actual supreme commander (see

The House of Karadjordjevic ruled Yugoslavia from 1918-1941. Prince Alexander's father, King Peter, fled the country to avoid the Nazi invasion. After WWII Tito branded the royal family "enemies of the state" and confiscated their property. Prince Alexander has been living in Britain all his life. He hopes to live in Yugoslavia now that Milosevic is no longer in power. LATEST NEWS On March 31st, 2001, Slobodan Milosevic was arrested at his Belgrade Mansion by Yugoslavian authorities. Milosevic is wanted by the United Nations War Crimes Tribunal in The Hague for crimes against humanity and the US Congress threatened to withhold $100 million in economic aid if the new leaders didn't cooperate with the Tribunal by the end of March.

MARCH OF THE TITANS - A HISTORY OF THE WHITE RACE Chapter 34 : The Test of Ethnicity - Switzerland, Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia Part Two - Yugoslavia ETHNIC AND RACIAL STEW, CAUSED BY NON-WHITE OTTOMAN OCCUPATION The state of Yugoslavia was created at the end of the 19th Century out of a number of ethnic cultural groupings in the Balkans. The volatile mix of White Slavic, Asiatic invaders and Islamic Turks in the Ottoman Empire have fused - and often clashed violently - to make this region one of the most unstable in all of Europe, with its wars still dominating Europe at the end of the 20th Century. Yugoslavia was created out of a number of smaller territories, some of which were independent of the foreign invaders in Eastern Europe, and some of whom were not. Before the progress of the actual state of Yugoslavia is overviewed, it is therefore crucial to briefly review its main component regions: Croatia, Serbia, Montenegro, and Slovenia. Yugoslavia: Ethnic and Racial Stew A map of Yugoslavia, showing the provinces as they were under the united government during the 1945 - 1990 era. The regions correspond closely to the modern day independent states. In 1992 a union of two of the states - Serbia and Montenegro - claimed for itself the name Yugoslavia. Key:
  • Slovenia
  • Croatia
  • Bosnia- Herzegovina
  • Serbia (including Kosovo)
  • Montenegro

    The Munich Agreement and the US-NATO war against Yugoslavia: The real lessons of appeasement in the 1930s
    By Julie Hyland 23 April 1999 There has been much talk during the last weeks of the failed policy of "appeasement" with Nazi Germany prior to World War Two. British Prime Minister Blair claimed his "generation of '68" had learnt the lessons of the 1930shence their willingness to take military action against Serbia. Earlier this week Clare Short, Labour's International Development Secretary, denounced MPs in her own party who oppose the NATO bombardment as "equivalent to the people who appeased Hitler". Perhaps one of Alistair Campbell's first tasks in his new job assisting NATO's "public relations" should be to advise the government to drop such comparisons, lest they inadvertently find themselves on the wrong side of their own argument. What was the content of "appeasement"? Historically this term refers to the Munich Agreement drawn up between Britain, France, Italy and Germany on September 29, 1938 which agreed the dismemberment of Czechoslovakia by Nazi Germany.

The Institute of War and Peace Reporting Provincial bank staff also joined in the action. Twenty workers at Investabanka in Vranje and 54 employees in Nis went on hunger strike, whilst in Lazarevac, 190 bank workers locked themselves in at the local Beobanka branch In September, the Yugoslav government reported back to the IMF on its progress. Of the 28 banks, four were subsequently declared healthy, six needed further supervision, 11 could be saved (including the four now liquidated) and seven had been liquidated.

    D ALLAS P EACE T IMES
    June 1999 By Cliff Pearson President Clinton's June 10 declaration of victory in Yugoslavia is nothing more than a public relations sham. As Dallas Peace Center board member Dick Davis said to me the morning of June 11, "You can mess your pants and call it a victory, but that doesn't make it a victory." This war has been a tremendous failure, plain and simple. There is no real victory here for President Clinton or the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, and definitely not for the people of Yugoslavia. Peace could have been achieved 11 weeks ago before this war began. But instead of using diplomacy, the U.S. went charging in with military threats. The Rambouillet agreement wasn't an attempt at negotiation, it was an ultimatum a list of harsh demands presented by the U.S. government to the Yugoslav government that had three points: (1) Kosovo must be granted autonomy, (2) NATO must be allowed to station 30,000 ground troops in Yugoslavia to ensure this autonomy; and (3) a NATO-conducted referendum for Kosovo's independence from Yugoslavia would take place within three years. The Yugoslav government agreed to the first condition, and then rejected the second and third, saying they were a gross violation of their sovereignty and the independence of their country. There was nothing diplomatic about this ultimatum. But the Clinton administration coined a new buzzword, "coercive diplomacy" (a fancy way of saying extortion) and decided to solicit the help of NATO in conducting an illegal and immoral bombing campaign, that killed more civilians than it did soldiers.

The money is intended to help remedy the damage wreaked on the Yugoslav economy by years of war and mismanagement. Labus: Raising money in Brussels

    Analytic Summary
    Due to the authoritarian nature of the Yugoslav government for the majority of the 20th century, there was little opportunity to protest. Additionally, the Hungarians were treated well in the past and there was no reason to protest. As a result, the first evidence of Hungarian protest occurred in the 1990's (PROT90X = 3), with demonstrations and rallies, with the size of these protests growing as the decade progressed, and the Hungarians were more and more discriminated against (PROT98X = 4). These protests have continued, with anti-Milosevic rallies seen in 1999 (PROT99= 3) and autonomy rallies seen across Vojvodina in 2000 (PROT00 = 0). The Hungarians have never been reported to have engaged in militant activities against the Yugoslav government or people (REB00 = 0).

    Yugoslavia
    , former country on the Balkan Peninsula in southeastern Europe which existed from 1918 to 1991, when political and ethnic conflicts dissolved the nation. It encompassed six republics: Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia , Montenegro, Serbia, and Slovenia. For more information on the republics that made up Yugoslavia, see the specific articles on each republic. Also see the article on the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (Serbia and Montenegro). The South Slavs (or Yugoslavs) are one of the five major ethnic groups of the Balkan Peninsula, incorporating the Serb, Croat, Slovene, and Montenegrin peoples. Although the movement for political unification of these people dated back to at least the early 19th century, the South Slavs had historically been separated and controlled by various neighboring powers, such as Turkey, Italy, Austria, Hungary, and Bulgaria. Political entities in the period leading up to World War I (1914-1918) included the independent states of Serbia and Montenegro; Bosnia and Herzegovina under the sovereignty of Austria-Hungary; Croatia and Slavonia, a semiautonomous dependency of Hungary and later an Austrian crown land; and Dalmatia, a possession of Austria. (See also Banat; Carniola; Istria; Macedonia.) But despite these divisions and profound ethnic and cultural differences among the South Slavs, the desire for statehood remained strong.
